Superior Non-Destructive Leak TestingOur automated machine employs pressure decay and vacuum leak detection, providing non-destructive examinations of medical packaging and related products. This preserves sample integrity for further testing or use, ensuring highly reliable, repeatable results. Automated and digital touch controls enhance operation while maintaining an ambient noise level below 60 dB for a quieter work environment.
Comprehensive Data TraceabilityWith internal memory capable of storing up to 200,000 test records and real-time data logging, this system enables seamless traceability and audit readiness. Data can be conveniently transferred via RS-232 or USB interfaces, ensuring compliance with quality control protocols and regulatory guidelines.
Safety and User ConvenienceOperators benefit from automatic and manual calibration options, an emergency stop button, overpressure protection, and an intuitive digital touch panel for enhanced safety. Visual and audible alarms immediately alert users to test failures, while robust industrial-grade materials ensure consistent operation in demanding laboratory conditions.
FAQ's of Improving Medical Safety with Non-Destructive Leak Testing:
Q: How does the pressure decay and vacuum leak detection process ensure non-destructive testing?
A: The machine applies controlled pressure or vacuum to medical packaging or devices and monitors pressure changes to detect leaks, allowing non-destructive testing. This means samples remain intact for further analysis or use, preserving their original condition.
Q: What types of medical products can be tested with this automated leak testing machine?
A: The device is suitable for testing a variety of medical packaging such as containers, tubes, bags, and other medical device packaging. It accommodates specimen sizes ranging from 10 to 200 mm and specimen quantities of 1-4 per test cycle.
Q: When should I calibrate the leak testing equipment, and how is calibration performed?
A: Calibration is recommended prior to regular testing sessions or as specified by internal quality protocols to maintain accuracy. Both automatic and manual calibration functions are available via the digital touch panel, making it simple to ensure optimal performance.
Q: Where is the leak testing data stored, and how can I retrieve it?
A: All test records-up to 200,000-are securely stored in the machine's internal memory. Data can be accessed and exported using RS-232 or USB connections for easy integration with external data management systems.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this automated, non-destructive leak testing solution?
A: Key benefits include precise, rapid testing (up to 60 tests per hour), preservation of sample integrity, robust safety features, compliance with international standards (ISO 11607, ASTM F2338), comprehensive traceability, and enhanced user experience with multi-language support and digital controls.
Q: How does the alarm system contribute to operator safety and process reliability?
A: The audio-visual alarm system immediately signals any failed test, allowing operators to quickly address issues. Coupled with emergency stop and overpressure protection, the system enhances both user safety and the reliability of the testing process.
