Dansensor LeakPointer II Benchtop Leak Detector
An off-line leak detection system, now with a new optical sensor, for the seal integrity testing of individual packs, or small groups of packs. Using CO2 as a trace gas for CO2 containing MAP packs. Detects micro-leaks from poor sealing, food entrapment, or pinholes in the packaging film. Very effective for detecting micro-leaks.
Dansensor LeakPointer II – Off-line Benchtop Non-destructive Leak Detector
Very sensitive optical sensor- Highly effective for detecting micro- leaks.
- Fast paybacks on investment through the fast identification of leaking packs leading to the optimization of the packaging process
- Reduce waste, reduce returns, reduce rework and reduce loss of machine time.
The Dansensor® LeakPointer II is a compact off-line leak system, with a new optical sensor, that offers the possibility of monitoring individual packs or small groups of packs. By using the CO2 MAP gas as a trace gas, it is possible to test packages shortly after being produced. The resultant real time information enables the optimization of the packaging process to progressive improve overall packaging performance.
Operation
This test method is non-destructive and it is possible to test a pack, or a number of packs at one time. The package is placed inside the Dansensor® LeakPointer II test chamber, where a user-defined vacuum is created, to establish a pressure difference between the inside of the package and the test chamber causing CO2 from the package to enter the test chamber through even the smallest leak.
A highly sensitive sensor measures all changes in the CO2 content and will detect even micro leaks. When a leaking pack is detected, the user is altered by a visual & audible alarm. Test results are stored for subsequent export / download.
Benefits of the Dansensor® LeakPointer II:
- Test information for the optimization of the packaging process
- Non-destructive testing
- Reduced risk of cross contamination (compared to traditional water bath)
- Testing is operator independent
- Detects package leaks
- Quality control of seal integrity to ensure product shelf life
- Minimizes the risk of expensive product recalls due to leaking packages
- Discover mechanical packaging machine errors instantly
