GasCheck Tesla

GasCheck Tesla is a highly sensitive, handheld helium leak detector. The detector is designed to provide rapid and accurate measurements of helium in high magnetic fields around the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanners. The advanced microthermal conductivity sensors enable the device to detect helium leaks at ultra-low levels.

The helium detector can be used whilst the MRI scanner is in operation, eliminating interruptions at work.

The detector comes with a handheld probe. The device is designed to reach small places, enabling fast detection of all possible leak paths.

GasCheck Tesla has the following benefits:

Operates effectively around a high magnetic field
Detects small leaks at ultra-low levels
The small internal flow rate provides maximum sensitivity
Fast and accurate leak detection
Reliable, stable and continuous readings
Rapidly detects helium leaks and minimises interruption
Low cost alternative to expensive mass spectrometers
Affordable and parts
2 year warranty when the instrument is registered online
The device can be operated by one hand
The handheld probe is designed to reach small places easily
Large LCD back-lit display
