Seal Integrity is the most important piece to package & food manufacturing. The FlexPak Leak Detector allows testing of all package seals within one cycle. 

The Gold Standard Testing method for the Food Industry. Quickly test all package seals at once and locate the exact source of a Seal Issue on any package.
 

Simulate Transit conditions to ensure your package will be able to withstand the pressure changes due to Altitude changes during shipping. Whether you ship over mountain by land or air, you can simulate the conditions. These altitude simulations can be automated with our FPFA series control packages.

Sterility inspections and performance of Microbial porous and non-porous barriers for Medical Device and Pharmaceutical Packages are the most common applications of ASTM F2096 testing.

FAQ's

What do I need to run my FlexPak Leak Detector?

Standard units do not have power requirements, but do require access to compressed air services (see spec. sheet). EVP units require a 120V/240V power supply. All units require a water source for filling the tank, and a means to drain liquid from the Leak Detector after testing. A dedicated water line is not required, as the tank can be filled and drained manually.

The model names specify the inside dimensions of the Leak Detector. For example – the FP181210 model has interior dimensions of 18” (width) x 12” (depth) x 10” (height).
We currently do not offer in-house testing services. For specific product questions please reach out to the FlexPak team.
Lead times vary depending on the Leak Detector model. Typically, table-top units are in stock and ready to ship, while floor-stand/add-on units have a minimum lead time of one week.

Any flexible package, rigid trays, rigid containers, vacuum-sealed packages, and liquid-filled packages (add-ons required). For specific product questions please inquire.

Yes! Be sure to include the VAC Attachment add-on to your unit.
