ChargeIT Lite

Gas charging station

Description of the product

ChargeIT Lite is a small and efficient system used as a tool for easy gas handling when locating leaks (leak detection). Avoid time consuming and inconsistent adjustments on a normal gas regulator, whilst the operator with the ChargeIT Lite just have to push start & accept in order to the gas in and out from the test object. Tracer gas is handled in an efficient way and high background levels are avoided. Settings are normally made once and then the is up and running. The unit is available in two pressure ranges; normal (5 bar) and high pressure (15 bar).


Advantage compared to a normal gas regulator:

  • Consistent pressure
  • Improved safety, avoid high pressure
  • Ensure gas is spread in entire test object
  • Minimize risk for high background levels of tracer gas
  • Time saving, just press start & accept


What the product does

ChargeIT Lite ensures that gas is spread into the entire test object . Settings are made regarding pre evacuation, pressure limit, acceptance limit and after evacuation. Pre evacuation is often required in order to make sure tracer gas is spread throughout the entire product, especially when charging long and narrow test objects. When a test is accepted, tracer gas is evacuated away from the test area, in order to minimize tracer gas backgrounds that may cause  problems.

Where the product can be used

Some examples where the ChargeIT Lite succesfully can be used.

  • Together with a tracer gas leak detector after a pressure-, flow or vacuum decay test
  • After an overal test, normally helium- or hydrogen accumulation tests
  • In reject areas where gas has to be charged in order to detect leaks
  • In machines, instruments adjusted for tough production purposes, just press start & accept
  • To avoid time consuming and inconsistent adjustments on a normal gas regulator
