Designed to detect gross and fine leaks in modified atmosphere and flexible packaging, INFICON Contura S400 nondestructive leak detection technology is suitable for a range of meat and poultry applications, such as thermoformed meal kits, flow-wrapped breakfast sandwiches, vertical form/filled/sealed chicken wings and vacuum-packed bacon. To test for leaks, a package is placed between 2 membranes that create a conformal vacuum chamber, which is quickly evacuated. The gas flows through any package leaks into the chamber and gauges calculate the leak rate.
