Leak Testing Machine

A leak can be defined as an unintended crack, hole or porosity in an enveloping wall or joint, which must contain or exclude different fluids and gases allowing the escape of closed medium. Critical leak spots in closed systems are usually connections, gaskets, welded and brazed joints, defects in material, etc. A leak test procedure is usually a quality control step to assure device integrity, and should preferably be a one-time non-destructive test, without impact on the environment and operators. Several leak-testing techniques are available, spanning from very simple approaches to systems that are more complex.
