Page 8: How Gascheck Tesla Works
6 times faster. The GasCheck Tesla contains a heated thermistor bead that transmits heat to a block of material that remains at a constant temperature. As air passes through the detector chamber a constant amount of heat passes from the bead to the block. -
Page 9: Instrument Main Menu
Instrument main menu Once the GasCheck Tesla has run through its 'Start up' routine it will display its normal 'Running screen' used when locating gas leaks. Before using the instrument the various settings should be set and adjusted to suit the application. -
Page 10: Running Screen
Gas selection The GasCheck Tesla displays the gas being measured in the top left of the running screen. The GasCheck Tesla will display the gas as selected at the factory, however the Tesla has a range of gases that can be selected via an internal gas table. -
Page 11: Functions
Functions Contrast Use this function to adjust the contrast of the GasCheck Tesla's LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). Significant variations in ambient light conditions can cause the display to appear too dark or faint. When this function is selected a number will appear to the right of the Contrast symbol as a percentage. -
Page 12: Battery Selection
= Cubic Centimeters per second offers a volumetric leak rate that directly measures the volume of a gas escaping from a given point, it is also known as ml/sec (milliliters per second). The GasCheck Tesla can typically detect Helium leaks down to 0.0005 of a cubic centimeter per second. -
Page 13: Gas Selection
Functions Gas selection GasCheck Tesla is calibrated using Helium gas at manufacture, however other gases can be detected and measured using a gas table within the instrument. Although GasCheck Tesla can't differentiate between gases it can quantify other gases using response factors stored in its internal gas table. -

Page 15: Using Gascheck Tesla
Ensure the instrument is on the X100 (times one hundred) range, while on the main running screen use the UP and DOWN key to adjust between sensitivity ranges. X100 is most sensitive, X1 is the least sensitive. Gas leaks tend to occur at pneumatic joints or welded seams, hold the GasCheck Tesla at a 45 angle to the object being tested and drag the probe along the seam or joint at a rate of approximately 25mm per second. -
Page 16: Gascheck Tesla Fan Current Monitor
In the event of the fan current constantly exceeding 600 units, for example if the GasCheck Tesla fan has reached the end of its working life, the unit will not display the leak rate and the GasCheck Tesla should be returned to ION Science for servicing. -

Page 18: Detecting Leaks
- GasCheck Tesla can detect changes in Humidity and Carbon dioxide, therefore avoid breathing on the probe. - The thin white tube that covers the inner probe should not be removed, this tube ensures a 1mm gap is maintained between the probe and the surface being tested. -
Page 19: Calibration
' units then the instrument must be calibrated using a 5000 ppm Helium concentration. If the GasCheck Tesla is used to detect leaks measured using 'cc/sec' units then the instrument must be calibrated using a 0.0005 cc/sec (5 E ) Helium leak. -
Page 20: Calibration Procedure Using 'Cc/Sec' Units
Used A-21500 0.0005 cc/sec Helium Calibration kit For when GasCheck Tesla is used with cc/s units WARNING: Great care should be taken to ensure the calibration gas is neither pressurized or restricts flow to the instruments probe. Changes in flow of gas to the sensor will result in significant errors in readings. -
Page 21: Replacing Batteries
The battery holder can be reconnected to the GasCheck Tesla by firmly pressing the two halves of the PP3 clip together. Care should be taken to ensure the polarity is correct, see the PP3 Battery holder diagram (right). -
