Leak Testing in Serial Production
Target audience: | Users, operating and maintenance personnel |
Prior knowledge: | Fundamental knowledge of vacuum technology |
Learning objective: | The participants will learn the fundamentals of different methods of quantitative leak testing and its practical application. They can basically understand or create testing specifications for mass-produced components and perform appropriate test methods practically. They are incapable of performing further steps to localize leaks on mass-produced components. |
Course content: | Fundamentals |
• Terms and definitions in the field of leak detection technology | |
• How do 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, temperature | |
• How do I create a practical specification? | |
• Practical application of helium leak detection tasks in different areas (coating systems, large-scale research, heat exchanger) | |
• Use of different test gases in leak detection | |
Applications | |
• Presentation of selected test methods according to DIN EN 1779 | |
• Practical exercises of common testing methods | |
• Influence of environmental parameters: Materials, temperature, humidity, conductance, outgassing, ... | |
• Localization of leaks on mass-produced components | |
• Application examples of test methods learned | |
• Testing of components of the seminar participants (by prior arrangement) | |
