The modular design of Zaxis leak testers enables us to meet the demands of a wide variety of applications.
Pressure decay is one of the most widely used methods of leak testing in manufacturing and is ideal for a sealed component with an access port. In this test, a product is attached to a leak tester and filled with air. Once pressurized, the air source is valved off and the pressure is allowed to settle. During the test any decrease in air pressure over time signifies a leak. If the part does not leak/decay past its predetermined reject value, it is a good part. The sensitivity of this test is dependent upon the product’s size and the time interval of the test. Larger objects require a longer cycle time to reach a high enough sensitivity for a quality test. Smaller objects with small internal volumes will require very low cycle time, allowing a high throughput of production.
The advantage of this type of testing is that it is accurate up to the 5th decimal place or 0.00001 PSI allowing for fast test cycles.

An occlusion test measures the passage of air through an object and signifies if the object’s passage is clear or occluded/blocked. In this test the product is attached to the test port and filled with regulated air. Once the desired pressure is obtained, all valves are closed off. The air is not allowed to settle and the test begins immediately after the fill stage. During the test, the downstream port is opened to atmosphere and the loss of pressure is measured. If the product exceeds the programed reject value, it is considered a pass. If pressure does not decay past the reject value it is occluded and the product does not pass.
For proper operation of this test, a downstream release is required. The iKit, Isaac HD, and Zaxis 7i allow for these release valves to be built in, or you can use a clamp (seal/pinch) valve with any tester to activate an external release.
