Tight, clean media for processes that forgive no mistakes

We locate air, nitrogen, argon, helium and vacuum leaks while the plant is running, without stopping production. The ultrasonic camera shows the leak on screen, measures it in l/min and converts it into cost per year. Where the highest tightness is required (vacuum, cryogenic and noble-gas systems) we perform helium leak tests.

You receive: a list of leaks with photos and repair priorities, losses in m³/h and cost per year (for technical gases — at the price of your gas), and a report for use in your ISO 50001 system and energy audit (methodology in line with ISO 11011).

We check whether the compressed air at the point of use really meets the declared class. We measure solid particles from 0.1 µm, oil content and pressure dew point — the parameters required for class 1.

You receive: a result in class notation (e.g. 1:2:1) for every point, a comparison with your process requirement and the weak link identified (filter, dryer, pipe section).

Packages 1 and 2 in one visit, plus on-site leak repair. We install and rework compression fittings according to the fitting manufacturer's procedure, and bend tube sections instead of adding more fittings. A re-measurement after repair is included in the package price — you see the result in the report.

For: gloveboxes, gas panels, PVD/CVD process gas and inert gas lines, class 1 compressed air in pharma, optics and cryogenics.

2 to 4 visits a year, with your leak and purity history in one set of reports. You see the trend before a problem reaches the production line or an audit report.

When measurements show that an installation cannot hold the required tightness or purity class, we design and carry out the upgrade: replacing leaking sections and joints, new stainless-steel lines with bent rather than joined tubing, panels and regulators for technical gases, air filtration and drying to class 1, and supply lines for gloveboxes and controlled-atmosphere equipment.

You receive: a scope of work based on the measurement results, the execution itself, and an acceptance measurement of tightness and purity class once the upgrade is complete.

For years we have supplied and serviced gloveboxes, inert gas systems and class 1 compressed-air installations for pharma, optics and cryogenic halls. We understand what a leak means for your process, not just for your electricity bill.

We measure particles from 0.1 µm, oil and dew point in compressed air according to ISO 8573 methods. Our technicians hold the compression-fitting manufacturer's certificates for fitting installation and tube bending, valid until 09.2029. After repair we measure again.

For nitrogen, argon and helium we calculate losses at the price of the gas, not just energy. We are not a distributor of any compressor or filter brand, so we select equipment for your process, not from a catalogue.

We have delivered installations for general contractors of industrial facilities and for research centres: class 1 compressed-air lines to ISO 8573-1 guidelines and precision gas lines feeding research equipment. We work across Europe.

Complete execution of He, Ar, Kr, Xe and N₂ lines feeding research equipment, turnkey or as a subcontractor to a general contractor. 3D routing model, AISI 316L stainless steel with 3.1 certificates, installation, helium leak tests, commissioning, user training and as-built documentation (as built, P&ID). Working pressures up to 200 bar. We have already handed over such installations, among others at a research centre, with a 60-month warranty.

New and upgraded installations in buildings: ring mains in press-fit 316L stainless steel with oil-free seals, for air dried to a pressure dew point of −40/−70 °C. Take-offs from the top of the main and minimal dead legs, so purity is maintained all the way to the points of use. We also do compressor-room pipework (oil-resistant seals, anti-vibration connectors) and automatic line purging.

We prepare the installation so the glovebox can be connected and started from one ready point: a process gas or dry compressed-air line in stainless steel from the existing connection, wall penetrations, routing under the ceiling and a drop to the glovebox, a gas panel with a two-stage regulator and gauges, purging and drying of the new line, a leak test and connection of the glovebox exhaust to the existing extraction.

Optional at the point of use: filtration (1 µm, 0.01 µm, activated carbon), a local adsorption dryer to a dew point of ≤ −70 °C and continuous dew-point monitoring with alarm.

We select, install and commission pressure-reduction systems from cylinders or bundles to the point of use: single- and two-stage panels, semi-automatic or automatic cylinder changeover stations (continuous supply), inert-gas purging during cylinder change, contact gauges with empty-cylinder alarm, check and relief valves, and point-of-use (POU) regulators at the equipment.

Typical parameters: inlet pressure up to 200–300 bar, outlet from 0.1 to approx. 17 bar. UHP design: electropolished 316L stainless steel with surface roughness Ra ≤ 0.25 µm, metal face seal (VCR) connections, components with helium leak tightness in the order of 1×10⁻⁸ mbar·l/s, and the complete installation confirmed by a helium test. Gases: He, Ar, N₂, H₂, O₂, Kr, Xe, calibration mixtures and, in special versions, corrosive gases; for H₂ and O₂ designed with ATEX and oxygen cleaning in mind. We select equipment from proven manufacturers for the required gas purity and flow.

We deliver the complete path: from cylinder or bundle, through the panel, to the process connection at the glovebox or PVD/CVD reactor, with a helium test and handover documentation.
