The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) is a trusted provider of helium leak testing services. Leaks are a major concern in industrial environments and property owners and operators must take measures to identify and resolve leaks before they worsen into potentially hazardous conditions. Fortunately, our American Society of Non-Destructive Testing (ASNT)-certified technicians have the experience, training, and tools needed to detect very small leaks in various types of materials.
What is a Helium Leak Test?
Helium leak testing is a non-destructive testing method that uses helium to locate and detect leaks present in a component or system. During this process, technicians use helium as a tracer gas and introduce it to a test specimen that’s connected to a Mass Spectrometer Leak Detector (MSLD). If a leak is present, helium molecules will escape, and the detector can measure the size of the leak or its location. Helium leak tests are widely used because they offer many advantages, including:
- Helium is nonflammable and a safer alternative than hydrogen
- Helium is versatile and can be used to test a range of products of various shapes and sizes.
- The testing process is nondestructive, so it can be used on sensitive and expensive parts without concern.
