OverviewThe F6800-ME is a laboratory and off-line leak testing instrument for non-destructive integrity testing of containers. It implements differential vacuum decay technology with dual transducer measurement to detect sub-micron leaks and provides a graphical HMI for real-time cycle analysis.
Applications- Pharmaceutical production lines
- Liquid dosage forms
- Ampoules and vials
- Blow-Fill-Seal (BFS) containers
- Bottles and injectables
- Carpules and syringes
