When considering a leak tester beware - there
is no magic bullet. The correct leak tester is determined
from many factors including the test pressure, the leak rate,
the part's size, the part's construction, the cycle time,
the budget, the features... No single measurement technology
is the cure-all, which is why ATEQ manufactures a variety
of leak tester measurement systems. An ATEQ leak tester may
use any of the following technologies - volumetric flow, mass
flow, pressure decay, differential pressure decay or ioniq.
It is usually a technical consideration that will determine
the measurement technology used for the leak tester. Often
there is an overlap. It is this overlap that can confuse the
issue when comparing the quotes for several leak tester companies.
Be careful sometimes a company will quote one technology because
that is all they make. In that case, they are not necessarily
looking out for you and your leak test - they are looking
out for themselves. At ATEQ if we are to work as your consultant,
we will recommend the appropriate technology. If you already
have a preference concerning one leak tester technology rather
than the other, then tell us. Our modular leak tester line
can very easily accommodate your needs.
