Vacuum decay leak testing is an important part of ensuring the quality of your automated machinery. It helps ensure that your production is running properly and safely and provides peace of mind for your customers.
How is it done?
In vacuum decay leak testing, components are placed inside a chamber and pressurized to create a vacuum within the system. This allows any existing leaks to be detected, and if the pressure drops too quickly, then a leak has been discovered.
There are a number of leak testing methods that can be used to detect and locate leaks, but some methods are more sensitive than others. The sensitivity of a method is determined by the lowest leak rate it can detect and the type of system that is being tested.
Leaks can impact the performance and reliability of your products, and they can also cause equipment failure. They can occur in a variety of ways, including cracks or poor seals.
Depending on your needs, there are different types of vacuum decay leak tests that can be performed on your system. Some are based on a gas, while others use a chemical.
The leak detection method that is most appropriate for your product depends on a number of factors, including the type of material that it is made from, its rigidity and accessibility to the internal environment. It is also important to consider the application that it will be used in, as certain applications may have higher or lower requirements than others.
