LDS3000 Helium Leak Detector

Compact Design for Maximum Performance in Helium Leak Detection

The LDS3000 helium leak detector combines high accuracy and repeatability with short cycle times, making it the ideal choice for vacuum leak testing systems. Its compact design ensures seamless integration with minimal installation effort and space requirements. Enhance your operations with modern fieldbus systems for optimized performance.

The LDS3000 is also available as LDS3000 AQ for the use in accumulation systems. The product family of the LDS3000 is the most versatile solution for automated testing sytems, among others in the automotive industry.

INFICON also offers a wide variety of calibrated test leaks for almost every application. To simplify and speed up the order process, please use the Order Form for customized calibrated leaks for testing system.

Helium Savings and Higher Efficiency with EcoBoost

The unique and patented EcoBoost feature enables the LDS3000 leak tester to detect smallest leaks, even on high and decreasing tracer gas background levels. Due to excellent instrument quality leading to extremely precise, repeatable and linear measurements, an intelligent algorithm predicts decreasing tracer gas backgrounds with high accuracy.

With EcoBoost, the LDS3000 Helium Leak Detector can detect leaks early in the testing cycle and without the risk of missing small leaks. EcoBoost can also allow for the use of smaller, less energy consuming pumps and reduced helium consumption.
