Enhancing the insulation of Insulating Glass Units (IGUs) is achieved by filling the space between the glass panes with argon or krypton gas. These gases significantly reduce heat conduction within the IGU. When combined with low-emissivity (low-e) glass coatings, they not only help lower the window’s U-value but also contribute to the overall quality and performance of the product. Maintaining a high gas content within the cavity is essential for ensuring both long-term energy efficiency and the durability of the IGU.
Sparklike’s non-invasive technology allows for precise measurement of gas concentration in double and triple glazed IGUs, whether during production or on-site. This technology supports individual product quality checks and long-term automated testing without the need to break the glass.
The Global Standard to Measure Insulating Gas – Every Glass Gets Measured
Sparklike’s customer Technoform, a German manufacturer of plastic profiles, has been offering non-invasive TDLAS measurements of IGUs with the Sparklike Laser Portable™, as a service to support all participants along the entire value chain in the quality assurance and further development of their products.
Sparklike, a proudly Finnish company with a global presence since 2000, is dedicated to empowering manufacturers and suppliers in the insulating glass industry to achieve leadership in the IG market. Our innovative solutions enable cost savings in production and enhance the quality control of IG units, leading to superior product quality, reduced callback risk, and a stronger brand reputation.
By ensuring precise gas filling levels, we help you maintain optimal U-values, which are critical for energy efficiency and product performance. Did you know that an insulating glass unit without sufficient gas filling can have a U-value up to 30% lower than one with over 85-90% gas content? With Sparklike, you can trust that your IG units will consistently meet the highest standards, giving you a competitive edge in the market.
