GLT-01 Gross Leak Tester

Application

Assessing package seal integrity is crucial to verify the packaging's ability to provide the required product protection. Seal integrity tests are commonly utilized to evaluate sustainable packaging alternatives, cost-effective packaging options, and variations in production line sealing parameters. Maintaining the dependability of package seals is essential to uphold product quality and safety.

Gross Leak Tester is a destructive test method for detecting gross leaks in packaging by internal pressurization. This is also called the bubble test, submersion test, underwater immersion tester and dunking test, etc., and is primarily used for pouch, sterile packaging, etc.

ASTM F2096 describes a procedure to detect gross leaks from porous and non-permeable packaging materials through the use of internal pressurization  bubble test.

Test Description

A pressure difference is generated between the inside and outside of the inspected sample  immersed in the water medium. If there is a leak, the high pressure gas will flow to low pressure through the leak point. The bubbles generated by the leaked gas in the water can be observed on the low-pressure side, thereby detecting the leak.

Technical Features

1) PLC-controlled unit (industrial-level stability) with HMI touch screen operation.

2) Supplying of gas in a stable way.

3) Integration with pressure decay test method is offered as an option.
