Witt-Gasetechnik Leak-Master Easy Plus

Witt-Gasetechnik has released the Leak-Master Easy Plus with electronic control, which digitally logs all QC/QA measurements.

The device finds even the smallest holes in rigid or flexible packaging quickly and precisely, testing both inert gas and vacuum packaging simply and without the use of trace gas.

The test product is placed in a chamber filled with water. When the lid is closed, the air space above the water level is evacuated, the package inflating under water. If air bubbles emerge, there is a leak. The test method is straightforward and cost effective and has the additional advantage of making the weak point of the packaging visible.

The device records, saves and communicates (via Ethernet and SD card) its test program and results, enabling QC/QA managers to check leak test results at any time.

Operation is via a coloured touchscreen. Products, users and customised test programs can be configured rapidly and easily. When a test is commenced, the preset vacuum is automatically generated and maintained over the defined time period.

Special test programs are also possible using the electronics, such as height simulation to determine at what height above sea level the material will yield.
