Calibration is one of the many ways to achieve a precision in leak testing. Internal calibration delivers the desired results for the most leak testing applications since the leak detector properly tunes to helium and correctly reports the leak it sees. However, accuracy is influenced by numerous factors, most of which are not in control of the leak detector and…
Marine industry and its offshore platforms including both fixed and mobile consider safety as its number one priority. One of the biggest safety issues on board is that the living quarter demands a positive pressure while the operation and especially during an emergency situation. If we see the average common safety rule, it clearly states that leak testing must be…
Helium is one of the best-suited choices to find the leaks because it is non-toxic, inert, non-condensable, non-flammable and is present in the atmosphere in the trace amounts (5 ppm). Since the atomic size of the helium is small it easily passes through the leaks. Hydrogen is the only molecule smaller than helium. Hydrogen is not used in leak detection…
How can we determine the use of air density & pressure if we are losing? Basically, this problem of Air Leakage is caused by some specified thermal spaced conditional load that occurs. Generally, it affects the occupied indoor air quality in most commercialized & industrial sectors, the outdoor air that is caused is often by design, the air leakages are…
