Leak Test Method
|
|
|
| |
Your choices are...
|
|
|
| |
Bubble Testing
|
|
Used for applications that don't require high sensitivity. A Pressurized test object is submerged in a water tank. If bubbles emerge there is a leak. Specialized soap films applied to the surface of the test object are used to aid the process by lowering the surface tension and increasing the wetting ability of water.
|
| |
Colorimetric Developer
|
|
The surface is treated with a developer and reacts with the activating tracer (the leaking fluid) causing a visible color change to take place at the point of leakage. Developer application method is aerosol spray, paint or treated paper. Colorimetric developers are used to leak test large single and double walled tanks, pressure and vacuum vessels, laminated, lined or double-walled parts, complex piping systems, flexible containers (such as aircraft fuel tanks), glass-to-metal seals in hybrid packages and systems that inherently contain or will contain the tracer (water, ammonia, chlorine or oil).
|
| |
Electronic Gas Detection
|
|
The test object is pressurized with a tracer gas and a sniffer probe is used to scan the object for leaking gas.
|
| |
Mass Flow
|
|
Any pressure change measured by the pressure sensor is compensated for by inputting air into the test part. The amount of air that enters is measured by the flow sensor, directly determining the leak rate of the part. Leakage flow is directed across a heating element. The temperature change across a temperature transducer bridge results in an output voltage proportional to mass flow.
|
| |
Mass Spectrometer (Helium Leak Detector)
|
|
This process involves the pressurizing of the test object with a helium mixture inside an airtight pressure chamber. The air is then evacuated from the chamber, creating a pressure gradient between the internal volume of the part and the vacuum. The helium molecules move out of the part through any leakage. A mass spectrometer then samples the air inside the chamber and measures the partial pressure of helium.
|
| |
Hydrogen Leak Detection
|
|
The equipment is designed to detect hydrogen leaks.
|
| |
Pressure Differential / Decay
|
|
A pressure decay test involves the initial inflation of the test object and the establishment of a reference pressure. After a designated amount of time, the pressure is measured again and the initial and final measurements are compared. The change in pressure can be used to calculate the leak rate given the internal volume of the device. Pressure decay is able to detect minute changes in pressure.
|
| |
Ultrasonic Leak Detector
|
|
Sometimes called sonic or choked flow, turbulent flow is the most widely recognized source of ultrasonic vibrations. The turbulent flow of a fluid across a pressure boundary creates acoustic waves. These waves can be transmitted through the medium of the fluid itself, through the containment structure, or through the air surrounding the containment structure.

Output Options
|
|
|
| |
Your choices are...
|
|
|
| |
Analog Voltage
|
|
Any analog voltage output. Output voltage is a simple (usually linear) function of the measurement.
|
| |
Analog Current
|
|
Often called a transmitter. A current is imposed on the output circuit proportional to the measurement. Feedback is used to provide the appropriate current regardless of line noise, impedance, etc. Useful when sending signals over long distances.
|
| |
Frequency / Modulated Frequency
|
|
Frequency or modulated frequency output (e.g., sine wave, pulse train, AM, or FM).
|
| |
Switch or Alarm Signal
|
|
The output is a switch or alarm.
