Leak detector MKS Instruments

MKS PICO® Helium leak detectors are the smallest and lightest mass-spectrometer-based leak detectors in the world. Weighing just under 17 pounds, the PICO® series of sniffing-style and vacuum leak detectors set a new standard for portable leak detection. The PICO® family of helium leak detectors is the most compact, lightweight and portable series of mass spectrometer-based helium leak detection instruments available. Providing fast, contamination-free leak detection, the design incorporates patent-pending advances and miniaturization in mass spectrometry and vacuum technology. The small size of the compact PICO® Portable Helium Leak Detector significantly reduces start-up, response and clean-up time.

Helium is an excellent gas for leak checking, however, due to availability or manufacturing constraints it may be necessary to leak check using other gases. In this case, RGA’s provide an excellent alternative as a vacuum system diagnostic tool.
