Helium Leak
Testing
Galaxy Engineering provides helium leak testing using helium mass spectrometry, a highly sensitive method for finding very small leaks in pressure vessels and piping systems.
Why helium is used
Helium atoms are very small and the gas is inert, so it passes through tiny leak paths without reacting with the equipment. A mass spectrometer can detect it in very low concentrations, which is why this method finds leaks that conventional methods can miss.
Key Features
- Mass spectrometry
- Pressure vessels
- Piping systems
- Minute leak detection
Common Questions
What is helium leak testing used for?
It is used to find very small leaks in pressure vessels and piping systems where conventional methods fall short.
How does helium leak detection work?
Helium is used as a tracer gas, and a mass spectrometer detects any helium that escapes through a leak path.
