This course can also be conducted at your premises. Date, duration and content will be tailored to your needs.

Fundamentals

  • Terms and definitions in the field of leak detection technology

  • How detectors and devices work

  • Physical fundamentals

  • Methods of leak testing
    a) at overpressure (Micro-Flow)
    b) at atmospheric pressure (sniffing, accumulation method)
    c) under vacuum (helium spraying, integral and partial vacuum method)

  • Exemplary calculations of leakage rates as a function of flow through the leak, operating and test medium, pressure, and temperature

  • How practical specification can be created

  • Practical use of helium leak detection in different areas such as coating systems, large-scale research, and heat exchangers

  • Use of different test gases in leak detection

Applications

  • Presentation of selected test methods according to DIN EN 1779

  • Hands-on training using common test methods.

  • Influence of environmental parameters: materials, temperature, humidity, conductance, outgassing etc.

  • Localization of leaks in mass-produced components

  • Application examples of learned test methods

  • Testing of components provided by the participants (by prior arrangement)
