All VeriCon systems offer the following features and benefits:

  • High resolution non-drifting transducers (either pressure transducers or vacuum transducers) for consistent leak detection

VeriCon testers are well-suited for small, medium to large size containers with inspection rates up to the 150 bottles/min. range," added Seemungal. "In addition to the basic inspection economics of identifying leaking containers and minimizing false rejects, VeriCon systems offer many additional advantages that increase overall operational efficiency. The Auto- learn feature for example, which automates setup of accept/reject criteria. Customers also need fast and easy changeover to test different size containers, and real time inspection data with reject statistics and test result trends, providing on demand analysis of container quality."
