Preamble ATEQ F600HP, AN UNIVERSAL LEAK TESTER 6/34 ATEQ F600HP is a leak detector that tests the air tightness of parts. ATEQ F600HP can memorize 128 different test programs. QSG_F600HP_425.00_EN_01_2021-01-25...
LEAK TEST Leak test and Desensitized Mode The test pressure is applied to the input of the test part 3. The measurement is performed by the pressure sensor 2. 7/34 1 Device 2 Pressure sensor 3 Part under test Desensitized Mode: there is no leak fullscale. The limit is the test pressure. PRINCIPLE OF A CYCLE The measurement cycle is made of 4 main phases: fill, stabilization, test, dumping.
