Pressure decay test – OH steel drums

Fully automatic leak testing at maximum speed and accuracy.

Our in-line leak testing systems are designed for extremely accurate leak testing for a wide variety of drums and similar products. It`s smart design provides a fully automatic solution with a high capacity rate that can be implemented to provide a zero defects production output.

This system was able to perform a Pressure decay test on open head steel drums. Similar pressure decay tests are also possible on tight head steel drums. On top of that, this system was also combined with a hard vacuum test. Multiple different kinds of products (in this case tight head and open head drums) were able to be tested on one system.

The pressure decay test is a less precise method then a vacuum test (up to 10^-2 mbar*l/s). However no tracer gasses are required. Despite having a lower throughput then a vacuum test, this system was still able to meet the capacity requirements of the customer.
