    INFICON Safety | 2 2 Safety 2.1 Intended use The XL3000flex is a helium or hydrogen leak detector for sniffing detection. With the device you locate and quantify leaks on test objects. A test object always contains gas under overpressure. Check the exterior of the test objects for escaping gas using a sniffer line (sniffing method).

  • Page 12: Description

    4 | Description INFICON 4 Description 4.1 Function The XL3000flex is a detection device for the tracer gases helium and hydrogen. The device is designed for leak detection with the SL3000XL sniffer line, which is available in different lengths. With this sniffer line, you can detect leaks at a greater distance (high Flow) from the suspected leak if the detection limit has deteriorated and switch to low flow for more accurate localization.
  • Page 13: Operation Mode "Sniffing

    INFICON Description | 4 4.2 Operation mode "Sniffing" The XL3000flex has been developed exclusively for the "sniffing" mode. For operating you need a sniffer line SL3000XL. It is available in various lengths, see "Scope of delivery and additional equipment". The sniffer line SL3000XL is connected to the connection provided on the front of the device, see "Device setup [} 14]".
