Wireless Remote Control of Helium Leak Detector

Introduction of Wireless Remote Control

A wireless remote control is a handheld terminal that operates a helium mass spectrometer leak detector remotely via wireless signals (such as Bluetooth or radio frequency). Its core function is to enable remote control, enhancing operational flexibility, efficiency, and safety.

Function of Wireless Remote Control:

The function of the wireless remote control is to extend the operator's range of control, freeing them from being tethered to the instrument panel. This is particularly useful for leak detection scenarios involving complex or large workpieces.
Remote Start/Stop and Mode Control:
Operators can start or stop the leak detection process and switch between leak detection mode and vacuum mode from a distance, eliminating the need to walk back and forth to the main unit, significantly improving work efficiency.
Remote Parameter Adjustment and Calibration:
Parameters such as sensitivity, alarm thresholds, and pump-down time can be adjusted directly at the workpiece site. Operators can also perform zero calibration or standard leak calibration, achieving "what you see is what you control" and ensuring settings are better aligned with actual testing conditions.
Enhanced Efficiency for Large Workpiece Inspection:
When inspecting large equipment (such as storage tanks, pipeline systems, or aircraft fuel tanks), operators need to move around the workpiece. The wireless remote control allows them to immediately re-test, mark, or record suspected leak points on-site without returning to the main unit, greatly optimizing the inspection workflow.
Improved Operational Safety:
In certain high-risk environments (e.g., where potentially flammable gases are present, during elevated work, or when maintaining a safe distance from equipment is necessary), operators can control the instrument remotely from a safe location, avoiding exposure to hazards.
Convenient Data Logging and Marking:
Advanced remote controls may include a trigger marking button. When a leak point is located, a single press can mark the data stream in the instrument, facilitating quick localization and correlation of data during later report generation.
