Leak Detection Tools- Component Part Leak Testing


Leak Testing of Component Parts
Leak Testing of component parts range from vacuum or pressure decay, to sniffing parts or a mass spectrometer vacuum test. Leak testing method is based on the level of leak tightness specified for the component part. Below are examples and information for each leak rate range.

For Leak Testing Parts to leaks to 1 x 10 ^-2 atm cc/sec - Pressure or Vacuum Decay
Zaxis Pressure Decay Issac Pressure Decay 4 Channel Model	Pressure Decay is a good leak detection method for gross leaks in part. Application areas include automotive parts, air conditioning, heat exchangers, medical devices castings and other leak tight devices.

For Leak Testing Parts to leaks to 1 x 10 ^-6 atm cc/sec- Sensistor Hydrogen Leak Detection
Sensistor H2000	Sensistor Hydrogen Leak Detectors are for sniffer leak detection applications. The H2000 is for production applications. These applications include, packaging applications such as bubble and blister packs, medical applications and automotive parts.

Example of Using the Sensistor for Production Parts Leak Testing of Bubble Blister Packs

Leak Detection of a Laser Welded Part

Medical Balloon Test Part


For Leak Testing Parts to leaks to 1 x 10 ^-9 atm cc/sec
Helium Leak Detection	Helium Leak Testing uses mass spectrometer leak detectors to leak check vacuum systems and leak checking parts that require ultimate leak tightness. Helium Charging systems are used to inject helium into the part.
