Agilent VS PD031 Helium Leak Detector
Formerly known under Varian, the Agilent VS PD031 Helium Leak Detector combines a two-button operation with advanced expert system intelligence. With a voltage configuration of 115 VAC, the spectrometer and vacuum system design provides powerful capability, enabling a broad range of test methods for specific applications. A wide range of options allows for broad configuration flexibility, meeting all application requirements and test environments.
The VS PD031 conforms to the most industrial standards and operates dependably in challenging environments. The handheld remote performs essential functions up to 100 meters (328 ft.) indoors, facilitating access to all leak sites.
