GBM-L1 Vacuum Decay Leak Detection Tester

Product Introduction

GBM-L1 Vacuum Decay Leak Detection Tester is used to perform micro leakage detection on finished packaging with the vacuum decay method. It is suitable for leak detection for the integrity of various packaging containers and applied to ampoules, vials, HDPE bottles, prefilled needles and other pharmaceutical packaging, food packaging, and chemical industry packaging. It is advantageous in its’ non-destructive, non-damage and sample-free preparing characters.

Test Principle

GBM-L1 is based on the vacuum decay method with dual sensor technology and a dual circulation system. The machines main body should be connected with a specially-designed test cell contained with a tested package. The instrument evacuates the test cell, and a pressure difference is formed between the inside and outside of the package. Under pressure difference, the gas in the package diffuses into the test cell through the leak hole. The dual sensor technology detects the relationship between time and pressure and compares it with the standard value to determine whether the sample leaks.

 

Features

  • Test cell customisation available for different test samples to meet various requirements
  • Suitable for detecting micro leaks and also large leaks samples; the judgement of qualified or unqualified displayed
  • Uses a non-destructive testing method to carry out leak detection on the finished packaging, which causes no sample damage
  • 7-inch colour touch screen, humanised operation is more convenient
  • Use branded vacuum components, stable and durable
  • Equipped with micro printer and USB data interface
  • PC software measurement and operation available, mbar and Pa interchangeable unit
  • Automatic saving of historical test records for local search
  • User classification authority setting to meet functions of GMP requirements, test record auditing and tracking
  • Test results automatically printed after test completion with manual operation to ensure accuracy and objectivity of the data

 

We have engaged in developing environmentally friendly packaging test equipment. Compared with the traditional colour water method, microbial challenge method of leak detection, vacuum decay method is a zero emission, high-efficiency, non-destructive physical testing method. It is the best for manufacturers, inspection institutions and scientific research institutes to detect the leakage of pharmaceutical and food packaging.

 

Standards

  • ASTM F2338-2009(2013) Standard Test Method for Non-destructive Detection of Leaks in Packages by Vacuum Decay Method
  • YY-T 0681.18-2020 Sterile medical device packaging test method
  • United States Pharmacopoeia USP1207 standard
