Identifying Leaks in Vacuum Chambers With a Can Vacuum Tester

A vacuum tester is an instrument that removes air and pressure from a confined space. They are used for testing a range of materials and products.

In many industries such as aerospace and space, vacuum testing is critical to determining a component���s ability to withstand the pressure and vacuum of space. It is also used in other industries to determine the stability of packaging that may be required to travel by air.

The test uses a tracer gas such as helium to help detect small leaks in vacuum systems. It is an advanced method for leak detection as it eliminates air and moisture, which can cause corrosion and degrade the quality of the product being tested.

During the testing process, vacuum is created internally by applying positive pressure to the test port through valve V1 and set by pressure regulator R1. A tracer gas such as helium then enters the product, where it can be detected using a helium sniffer probe.

If the helium smells like air or water, it indicates a leak is present and the pressure rises quickly to atmospheric level. This type of leak test can be run on both high-pressure and low-pressure models.

This type of leak test is typically used for checking seal strength, package integrity, and check valves. It can be performed on various products, including plastic bottles, pouches, and wafers.

The can vacuum tester can also be used on spill boxes to test for leaks at a specific level without having to seal each surface. It includes a transparent plate that sits on top of the spill box, a vacuum generating pump to provide the testing vacuum, a relief valve to keep the vacuum level near 28" WC and protect the box, and a gauge port for confirmation.
