New Vacuum Leak Detector for Flexible, Semi-rigid and Rigid Packages

AMETEK MOCON, a leading global provider of permeation analyzers, package testing instruments, and gas controllers/sensors, today announced the launch of the Dansensor® Lippke® VC1400, an innovative vacuum leak detector that strengthens its product portfolio. The new product offers a highly sophisticated design and easy-to-operate leak detection system for flexible, semi-rigid and rigid packages. In addition to being used for quality checking proper sealing, it contributes to ensuring sterility and extending the shelf-life of packaged goods. Designed to find the smallest leaks “The Dansensor® Lippke® VC1400’s advanced design finds even the smallest leaks in blister packages, glass vials, and other flexible, semi-rigid, or rigid packages,” said Steen Andreasen, Product Manager for AMETEK MOCON in Denmark. “It ensures greater test package integrity and automates two tests — both methylene blue dye and bubble tests — with predefined test parameters for ultimate test reproducibility. Repeatability is vitally important in lab settings, though in many labs these tests are still being done by hand, which makes them hard to regulate and repeat. The product’s new upgraded design and features provides users with the best accuracy.”
