Edwards ELD500 Helium Leak Detector delivers unmatched sensitivity, reliability, and versatility for precise helium leak detection across a wide range of industrial and research applications. Its intelligent design, combined with advanced electronics and a robust mass spectrometer, ensures rapid and accurate leak detection every time.
Key Features:
- Color touchscreen control with intuitive local graphical display and audible leak alerts
- Wireless capability to simultaneously control up to 10 leak detectors (select models)
- Measures helium leaks down to ≤ 5 x 10-12 mbar l/s in vacuum mode and ≤ 7 x 10-9 mbar l/s in sniffer mode
- Fully mobile design with low weight and integrated carry handles; bench top or trolley mountable
- 180° mass spectrometer ensures class-leading detection performance
- Choice of configurations:
- ELD500 WET: with oil-sealed rotary vane pump – optimal for industrial environments requiring fast pump down of large chambers
- ELD500 DRY: with helium-optimized diaphragm pump for clean applications
- ELD500 FLEX: without primary pump, ready to integrate with existing vacuum systems
- Standard sniffer line for operation up to 4 m; optional extensions up to 50 m available
- Partial flow kit available for handling larger contaminated gas loads (compatible with ELD500 and FLEX)
- Low energy consumption and extended life ion source minimize operating costs
- IP40 rated and CE-compliant for reliable operation in demanding environments
