Leak tester 3925-0060

The Leakage Tester

Differential pressure leak testing provides accurate measuring results and can be easily integrated into most automated systems.
Compressed air is used as test medium resulting in low operating costs and freedom from contamination.
Because of the low viscosity air quickly penetrates porosity or other leakages. Cleaning and drying of previously tested parts, as well as corrosion protection, is not required.
As for all pressure leak test systems leak free test fixtures and related components are required.

The functionality of the tester

Automation of the workplace nowadays have to be realized even in quality assurance and the equipment used. To test production parts for leakage, it is necessary to integrate the leak test in the manufacturing process.
Important features of the LEAK TESTER 3925-0060 are:

• automatic control cycle
• storage of test programs
• contamination free test
• reproducible measuring results
• short cycle times with high accuracy
• unambiguous results
• measured value display
• programmable test pressures and test times to suit testing to the production of many different components
• user friendly operation with interactive user guidance
• modular design concept for ease of maintenance and service

Operating principle

The operating principle is based on measuring the pressure change between a sealed test part and a sealed reference volume within a given measuring time. The core of the measuring system consists of a differential pressure transducer with automatic zero-point correction.

Operation

Pneumatic System

• heavy-duty, robust diferential pressure transducer

• overload protection to 150 bar/g
• temperature compensated
• easy to maintain

• microprocessor controlled electronic pressure regulator for filling and test pressure
• pneumatic controlled shut-off valve to eliminate tmeperatur influence
• function monitoring
• optional leak simulation with precision needle valve for the connection of an external leak calibrator (available as optional accessory)

Electrical System

• modular design microprocessor system
• battery buffered RAM for data protection
• alphanumeric keypad
• 5 inch color display
• write-protect key switch to prevent unauthorized program changes
• error message as plain text
• menu guided programming and adjustment of parameters
• various interface ports to communicate with control systems (see technical data)
