SHIMADZU MSE-2601 Compact General-Purpose Dry Helium/Hydrogen Mass Spectrometer Leak Detector
The SHIMADZU MSE-2601 is a compact, transportable, general-purpose mass spectrometer leak detector equipped with a built-in non-contact dry vacuum pump. It is designed for a wide range of applications, from equipment maintenance to integration into inspection systems, and is particularly suitable for clean-room environments. The MSE-2601 supports both helium and hydrogen as tracer gases. Its helium detection sensitivity is less than 8.00 × 10⁻¹³ Pa·m³/s, with a helium leak-rate display range from 10⁻¹³ to 10⁰ Pa·m³/s, making it suitable for quantitative detection of extremely small leaks. It incorporates SHIMADZU's characteristic 270° deflection analysis tube with a magnetic flux density of 0.17 T and two yttria-coated iridium filaments. The 270° ion-path design improves separation of unwanted ions and enables highly accurate leak measurement. The vacuum system combines a molecular drag pump with a non-contact dry vacuum pump. A helium pumping speed of 5.2 L/s at the test port helps improve response and background recovery. Communication interfaces and digital I/O also make the instrument suitable for automated inspection equipment and production-line integration.
