CO2 detection technology finds the smallest leaks
New Leak-Master from Witt Gas Techniques uses CO2 detection technology to find the smallest leaks in individual flexible and rigid food and pharmaceutical packaging
New micro-leak detection system launched
A new automated in-line micro-leak detection system, Leak-Master Inline, can be retrofitted onto food and pharmaceutical packaging lines to find CO2 leaks in flexible and rigid packaging
Leak-Master is available with different chamber sizes to suit the application.
It uses a non-destructive detection function based on CO2 detection technology to find leaks in individual flexible and rigid food packaging.
The use of CO2 is more cost efficient than using helium as the tracing gas.
The equipment has a sensor that can detect leaks between 0 - 5,000 parts per million.
A touch screen interface accesses the high memory capability, able to store settings for up to 1,200 different products plus names and passwords for 60 users.
It is also portable, weighing 60 kgs, so it can be easily transferred from one packaging line to another.
Carl Long, General Manager at Witt Gas Techniques said: "Since Leak-Master was launched back in late 2005, we have been very successful in selling this as well as our other leak detection products to UK food manufacturers.
In today's competitive market, manufacturers need to maintain credibility with their buyers - the supermarkets: therefore eliminating returns of faulty packaging is of paramount importance, because returns can be a very expensive operation.
Our leak detection products have definitely helped manufacturers reduce the number of returns they receive".
