The ASM 142 series sets a new performance standard for an entry-level unit.

General purpose leak detectors have always been synonymous with limited performance units. This belief was based on limited vacuum and electronic technologies available then to meet the key requirements of size and cost. Alcatel Vacuum Technology has once again revolutionized the world of leak detection, proving its prowess in helium leak detection.

The new universal leak detector model ASM 142 is the end result of an innovative engineering approach using the latest electronic technologies and vacuum concepts. This rugged unit is the undeniable proof that multipurpose no longer means compromise. On the contrary, the ASM 142 delivers unmatched features for an entry-level unit such as, a roughing capacity of 10 m3/h (7 cfm) with a usable helium sensitivity in the 10-11 atm.cc/s range. In addition, its comprehensive bulletproof display panel loaded with advanced features available at your fingertips delivers a true user-friendly unit.

• The ASM 142 S, a dedicated sniffing unit, based on the same well-proven leak testing concept, is also available for outboard leak testing applications.
• The latest in the famous ASM 142 series, the ASM 142 D is the most simple solution that you can find if you are attracted to « dry » helium leak detection.
