Dye Ingress Test inside a Transparent Test Chamber

Dye ingress is most commonly used as a container closing integrity test in order to quality test sterile products. This test is mostly done in the Pharmaceutical Industry or Medical Packaging Industry as means to test for product defects in rigid container. It is based on the concepts set forth by the ASTM 4991 and used as a seal integrity test. In addition to rigid containers, blister packs and heat-sealed trays, can also be tester in accordance to this method.

Our Acrylic Vacuum Chamber is the perfect candidate for the ASTM 4991 Test because the method calls for a “transparent test chamber”.

Fortunately, you have many to choose from since we have a large selection of transparent test chambers. Each of our vacuum chambers comes as a standard with a dial vacuum gauge and two vacuum valves (venting valve and vacuum valve)

Vacuum Degassing Systems
Vacuum Degassing Systems enable you to remove trapped gas inside your liquids - generally, epoxies. Degassing is a vital part of any two part or more mixing process, this includes but is not limited to epoxy, pharmaceutical mixing, potting, recipe creation. A vacuum degassing system consists of a vacuum pump, connection hardware (includes filters and traps) and a vacuum chamber.
Digital Vacuum Gauge Instruments
A Digital Vacuum Gauge is an instrument which precisely measures a vacuum level inside a vacuum chamber. Unlike a rough dial vacuum gauge, which shows only where the vacuum chamber is roughly with an error of up to 3% (a high as 1 inHg) a digital vacuum gauge will show vacuum levels up to 3 significant figure in Torr and millitorr – this makes the digital vacuum gauge ten thousand times more accurate than the dial vacuum gauge.
Our Work: Bubble Leak Testing System with a Dry off Sink used for Leak Testing Large Bags
How do you leak test Large Food Bags? This is the same question a Large Food and Beverage Processor had asked themselves because they had need for a bubble leak testing system which could be used to detect presence of leaks in their large bags. Their requirements were to test several sized bags with the largest bag being 24 inches Wide by 12 inch Deep by 9 inches High. In addition to the bubble leak testing system, they also needed a way to dry the bags after the test.

How do you know that you have a good part during your leak test? In order to understand your leak test, you must first understand the Test Decay Curve and what it tells you about your test specimen. There is a certain way that a test specimen behaves during the leak test.
