Test Principle
Firstly submerge the specimen in the water in the vacuum chamber, and then evacuate the vacuum chamber to form differential pressure between the inside and outside of specimen. The seal property can be obtained by observing the steady progression of bubbles from the specimen or observing how the specimen expands and restores to its original shape after vacuum release.

FAQ's of Vacuum Chamber for Testing Leaks & Integrity in Packaging:
Q: How is a leak or integrity test performed using the vacuum chamber?
A: To perform a leak or integrity test, place the specimen inside the chamber, seal the lid with the silicon gasket, and adjust the vacuum using the manual pump or connect an external vacuum pump. Monitor the pressure gauge and observe the specimen through the transparent window to detect leaks or package integrity issues.
Q: What types of packaging can be tested with this chamber?
A: The chamber is suitable for testing both flexible and rigid packaging used in food, pharmaceutical, medical, and industrial applications. Standard specimen sizes up to 250 mm x 150 mm can be accommodated, and optional accessories enable testing of multiple packages simultaneously.
Q: When should this vacuum chamber be used during the packaging process?
A: This chamber is typically used after packaging is completed, as a quality assurance tool. It helps manufacturers, suppliers, and exporters ensure that packages are properly sealed and free from leaks before distribution or storage.
Q: Where is the vacuum chamber best installed or operated?
A: Install the vacuum chamber in a clean laboratory or production environment where ambient temperature ranges from 5C to 40C and relative humidity is 85%. This ensures accurate testing conditions and maintains optimal chamber performance.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this vacuum chamber for leak testing?
A: Benefits include reliable leak and integrity detection, clear visibility during tests, accurate pressure control, compatibility with a wide range of packaging materials, customizable chamber capacity, and enhanced safety with the over-pressure release valve.
Q: How easy is it to maintain and clean the vacuum chamber after use?
A: The chamber is designed for low, easy maintenance. Its durable acrylic/polycarbonate materials and smooth surfaces allow fast cleaning, while user-friendly accessories such as sealing rings and tubing streamline setup and breakdown.
