Risk-free leak testing of heat exchangers

Detect leaks in heat exchangers with AccuTest.

Confirmed through independent trials against traditional methods as the best on the market - both in terms of sensitivity and speed of testing - the method has become the preferred testing method of its kind in the UK.

The patented testing system, AccuTest, The use of inert helium as a tracer is completely safe and risk-free, as helium is neither toxic, flammable nor corrosive, and it leaves no residual contamination in the system.

Helium also has the second-smallest atomic size and is easily detectable, allowing it to find holes as small as 5 micrometres, making it possible to find holes before they become problematic and lead to cross-contamination of the fluids.

This makes it possible to plan and perform preventive maintenance - something that is not possible with traditional testing methods.

Efficient, gentle and time-saving

The test is performed on-site with instant results. The test quickly shows if there is a hole in a plate and the exchanger does not need to be disassembled beforehand. This means less downtime in production.

The AccuTest system is very gentle on the heat exchangers - unlike conventional testing methods that use more coarse approaches such as high pressure and dye penetrants.

The helium disperses easily and safely, leaving no residue and not exposing the plates to potentially harmful high pressures.

It is the perfect system for non-destructive testing and guarantees complete safety while providing very high performance and excellent functionality.
