Large containers, such as 5-gallon water bottles, F-style industrial containers, 5-gallon / 20L / 30L edible oil, and gas cans, require leak testers specifically designed for their size. The ALPS SC-XL Linear indexing conveyor leak tester can handle containers up to the 30L range.

The ALPS SC-XL Linear indexing conveyor leak tester uses a simple single head platform that can test at higher speeds, with greater sensitivity, than typical competing technologies. As a result, the SC-XL Linear leak tester is more efficient and easier to use than larger footprint multiple-station cylinder stop leak testers.
