Uson’s Model 628 differential pressure decay leak tester is a compact, reliable, and accurate instrument that is ideal as a budget-friendly benchtop option for the medical device industry. Pre-loaded with differential pressure decay, differential vacuum decay, and compensation and calibration programs, the 628 is a powerful leak tester with the capability to collect and transmit a vast amount of data for offline trend analysis and a deep level of insight.

Up to 30 different programs can be created and stored in the instrument’s memory for fast recall of test parameters. Users can choose from five different pressure ranges from vacuum up to 15 bar (150psi) to cover a wide range of applications from medical check valves to automotive radiators and more. Featuring a 4.3” TFT graphic display, 15-degree viewing angle, and large accept/reject lamps, the 628 is ideal for any application requiring positive, non-subjective, results observation.

A backlit user interface makes accessing information easy, while bright, uniquely designed lights on the front panel allow for at-a-glance monitoring from across a room. With a front-mounted challenge port, easy-to-clean user interface, and rear-mounted regulator, the 628 is designed for the requirements of a busy laboratory environment.  Additionally, the menu system is intuitively structured to make setup and operation practically effortless.

The new 628 leak tester provides users on a tight budget with the precision and accuracy delivered by Uson’s industry-leading differential pressure decay transducers.  It is a surprisingly powerful instrument, packaged in a simple design. 

With its intelligently designed multi-language user interface option, the 628 supports leak testing requirements around the world, delivering clear, non-subjective results with a level of performance expected from more complex and expensive instruments.

Sprint^mD: Designed to seamlessly integrate into your environment, the Sprint^mD takes the Sprint platform to the next level and delivers consistent results to help users optimize their process. The Sprint^mD was designed on four key pillars of operation:

User Experience – The Sprint^mD was designed for the needs of an entire team. The large touchscreen makes accessing specific information easy, and the intuitive menu system provides a deep level of actionable data. The tester also features self-diagnostics to monitor the health of the instrument.

Security –With new security features, such as user authentication through passwords and roles, customizable access authorization, and the ability to log and monitor changes to parameters, the Sprint^mD enables compliance with standards such as 21 CFR Part 11 (U.S.), MHRA/EU Annex 11, and others.

Connectivity – The Sprint^mD provides refined analytics to identify historical trends, collects, archives, and reports data, to make it easier to handle changes, support quality systems, and manage processes. The tester also incorporates embedded fieldbus and expanded digital I/O, to deliver easy control and selection of programs.

Quality & Performance – With the Sprint^mD, Uson continues to meet the highest standards for leak and flow testing. With a modular design, it is easy to service and easy to upgrade, with the versatility to accommodate a wide range of testing and analysis, with up to four channels concurrently.

With thousands of units installed around the world, Sprint leak testers are the gold standard in the medical device leak testing industry. The Sprint^iQ continues to be sold and supported around the world.

Optima vT: Leak Detector Versatility -- Optima vT offers Uson’s industry-leading reliability and advanced leak testing technology in a highly configurable and versatile package. A comprehensive user interface puts control and information directly at your fingertips via the large, clear touch screen display.

At the heart of the Optima vT is Uson’s powerful TCU2, the second generation Test Control Unit offering unparalleled flexibility in a single test channel.
