Vacuum Purge Adapter – Automated Catheter Prepping

The Vacuum Purge Adapter (VPA) is another piece in the puzzle for completely automating burst and leak testing with the HBLT. When interfaced with the HBLT and Smart Manifold, the VPA allows for the fully automatic purging/prepping of catheters. The VPA employs a powerful vacuum pump to remove air from the attached product, readying the product for hydraulic testing. The need to manually prep the catheters with a syringe is eliminated.

Features include:

• User programmable vacuum to greater than -13 psi (-26 in/Hg)
• Two user programmable timers for vacuum duration
• Selectable ports allowing for automatic prep and test of one to ten samples

Increased throughput

• Eliminates the need for manually prepping catheters with a syringe
• Catheters can be deflated at the end of a test, if desired
• Increased throughput
• Eliminates the need for manually prepping catheters with a syringe
• Catheters can be deflated at the end of a test, if desired

Smart Manifold – Increase your testing thru-put 10 times

The more you can automate the more you can save, and that’s what our Smart Manifold helps you to do.

Connect our Smart Manifold to our Hydraulic Burst Leak Tester (HBLT) and you can do unattended testing of one to ten parts simultaneously. With three basic testing modes to choose from, the Smart Manifold lets you pressurize all selected ports simultaneously, or pressurize each selected port individually, or pressurize only one port at a time. Plus, you can add our Pressure Manager© Windows-based program to your system to operate the HBLT by remote control and to program tests that ordinarily couldn’t be done with just the HBLT alone.\

So, if you’re looking for an easy, cost-effective way to automate your testing capabilities, connect the Smart Manifold to your HBLT.
