The description sections and FAQ are machine-assisted and can contain errors; where they disagree with the record, the record is correct, and where description sections disagree with each other, Details wins._ ## Summary - Manufacturer: Inficon - Model: SL3000XL-3 - Condition: New From Surplus Stock - Price: Quote only - Availability: Not in Stock - Warranty: 1-Year Warranty with 30-Day Return Guarantee - ITAR restricted: No - Shipping weight: 3 lb, estimated - Shipping dimensions: 14X14X6 in, estimated ## Categories - Lab & Analytical > Lab Parts (primary) - Lab & Analytical > Other Lab ## Details ### Configuration - Sniffer Line Length: 3 Meters ### Includes - (2) SL3000XL Filter Cartridges (Pack of 25); Part Number: 200002773 Part Number: 521-011 ## Function Designed as an accessory for sniffer-type leak detectors, the sniffer line enables precise localization of gas leaks on test specimens by sampling gas at the sniffer tip and conveying it to the detector. It interfaces via a dedicated socket on compatible leak detectors, including models like XL3000flex and Protec P3000XL. The sniffer line typically includes a multifunction cable, sniffer handle, and sniffer tip with filters and protective elements, ensuring accurate gas sampling while preventing contamination or blockages. It supports high gas flow rates (up to 3000 sccm) for sensitive detection of helium, hydrogen, and forming gases, and can be used manually or integrated with robotic testing systems. ## Platform Advanced semiconductor-specific gas leak detection system utilizing multiple mass spectrometer sensors with detection sensitivity ranging from 0.5 to 5000 scc/s for helium and hydrogen tracer gases. Features automated multi-point monitoring via programmable sequencer supporting up to 16 discrete sampling locations through pneumatic valve manifold. Integrates with fab management systems via RS-232/485 serial interfaces and analog 4-20mA outputs for real-time leak rate data transmission. Equipped with turbomolecular pump achieving 10^-9 mbar ultimate pressure and automated calibration using internal reference leaks. Primary applications include semiconductor process tool leak checking, vacuum chamber integrity testing, and continuous monitoring of gas delivery systems in cleanroom environments. ## Application Portable helium leak detection system utilizing mass spectrometry for non-vacuum testing applications. Detects trace helium concentrations through atmospheric sampling probe connected via flexible hose. Features adjustable sensitivity ranges from 10^-7 to 10^-3 mbar·l/s, automatic calibration, and real-time leak rate display. Commonly used for pressure testing sealed components, HVAC refrigerant leak detection, underground pipeline inspection, aerospace fuel system verification, semiconductor process equipment maintenance, and quality control of hermetically sealed electronic packages. Enables rapid scanning of welds, joints, and seals without requiring vacuum chamber preparation. ## Images - - - - -
