GPL-5020: Gas Pressure Leak Tester

The Interface Gas Pressure Leak Tester, Model GPL-5020, is designed for rapid, non-destructive testing of catheters. Its modular construction allows for expanding the number of test ports from one to twenty, in multiples of five. Each test port is fitted with a small isolation solenoid valve, allowing each catheter to be tested independently. The system can also perform vacuum leak testing of catheter/stent assemblies to verify the integrity of a balloon after stent crimping.

Key Features

  • Modular design, up to 20 test ports

  • Air activated Touhy-Borst ports or Luer ports
  • Stores up to 100 programmable sequences
  • Leak test in less than 4 seconds
  • 2 Leak rate, compliance and flow resistance testing
