Pressure decay leak test

Contrôle d'étanchéité et test de fuite par chute de pression

The 6NAPSE Group carries out pressure decay sealing tests and leak detection on products/packaging.

Why simulate air transport/atmospheric pressure on the bottle?

At altitude, the atmospheric pressure inside the aircraft cabin is significantly lower than at ground level. This pressure difference exerts considerable force on the containers. If a bottle is not perfectly sealed, the higher internal pressure will push the liquid or gas contained within it out, causing leaks.

Pressure decay leak testing

Our laboratories verify the leak-tightness of products and packaging to meet the strictest quality and safety requirements. We offer product simulation during air transport in a vacuum-sealing chamber that replicates air transport conditions, including atmospheric pressure variations.

Our device, which can operate down to -950 mbar, detects subtle microleaks, ensuring product integrity. The transparent test chamber allows us to pinpoint weak points, allowing you to implement targeted and effective corrective actions.

Whether it concerns the bottle body or its closure system (cap, pump, etc.), we provide a comprehensive assessment for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries.

Applications

  • Vacuum Leak Testing
  • Leak Detection
  • Leak Testing and Pressure Drop Leak Testing
  • Positive Pressure Liquid Leak Testing
