The helium mass spectrometer leak detector is a high-precision device used to detect minute leaks, widely applied in fields such as semiconductors, vacuum equipment, and aerospace. The automatic peak tracking and calibration functions are its core advantages. Taking the helium mass spectrometer developed by Gadro as an example, this fully automatic mobile helium mass spectrometer leak detector not only features a silent wheeled design but also integrates 180-degree non-uniform magnetic field and automatic control technologies, enhancing detection efficiency and accuracy.

Working Principle of Automatic Peak Tracking Function

The automatic peak tracking function is one of the core technologies of the helium mass spectrometer leak detector, aiming to ensure that the detection signal always remains in an optimal state. During the detection process, helium gas enters the detection system through the leak point and is ionized to form helium ions. These ions are separated in the mass spectrometer analyzer based on their mass-to-charge ratio, and the helium ion signals are captured by the detector and converted into electrical signals. The automatic peak tracking function continuously monitors the signal strength and uses intelligent algorithms to dynamically adjust parameters such as the focusing voltage, ion source settings, and magnetic field strength of the mass spectrometer, ensuring that the helium ion signal remains at its peak position. The 180-degree non-uniform magnetic field technology adopted by Gadro’s helium mass spectrometer further optimizes this process, ensuring high sensitivity and stability of the signal. This automatic adjustment not only reduces the complexity of manual operations but also avoids detection errors caused by environmental changes or parameter drift.

Working Principle of Automatic Calibration Function

The automatic calibration function is another key technology of the helium mass spectrometer leak detector, designed to eliminate measurement errors caused by prolonged operation or environmental changes through periodic or real-time calibration. Gadro’s helium mass spectrometer is equipped with a high-precision standard leak source, enabling it to automatically switch to calibration mode, compare the detection signal with the standard value, and calculate deviations to adjust internal parameters. This process is fully automated, requiring no manual intervention, thus avoiding errors that may arise from human operations. The automatic calibration function can also intelligently adjust the calibration cycle based on the frequency of use and environmental conditions, ensuring the device always operates at its best.

Practical Effects of Reducing Human Operation Errors

The automatic peak tracking and calibration functions, through intelligent algorithms and automated operations, completely eliminate errors caused by insufficient experience or negligence of operators. For example, during detection, the device can automatically recognize changes in signal strength and adjust parameters in real time without manual intervention. This not only reduces the workload of operators but also ensures the accuracy and consistency of detection results. The highly sensitive helium mass spectrometer leak detector is also equipped with a barcode scanning storage and leak recording function, which automatically records the detection data and generates reports, further reducing the errors that may be caused by manual recording.

Practical Applications for Improving Detection Efficiency

Gadro’s helium mass spectrometer, through its automatic peak tracking and calibration functions, can complete device startup and parameter optimization in a short time, significantly reducing detection time. Its fast computing capability and high sensitivity ensure quick localization of leak points even in complex environments. The device’s strong anti-interference capability allows it to maintain stable detection performance in high-noise environments, further improving detection efficiency.
