Pressure Change Method Leak Testing Summary (Iso 10648-2) - Labconco Precise CA 5220100 User Manual

Pressure Change Leak Testing Method Summary
(ISO-10648-2)
The method consists of measuring the pressure rise per unit time after
establishing a negative pressure in the main chamber of the glove box. Use
-1000 Pa for the acceptance test and -250 Pa for the operational test. The
hourly leak rate includes adjustments for barometric pressure and temperature
changes which can be calculated as T
T = (60/t) * ((PnT /P
f 1 1
t is the duration of the test in minutes.
P is the absolute pressure (ambient barometric pressure minus under
1
pressure) at the first reading in Pascals.
Pn is the absolute pressure (ambient barometric pressure minus under
pressure) at the last reading in Pascals.
T is the temperature at the first reading in Kelvin.
1
Tn is the temperature at the last reading in Kelvin.
60 represents 60 minutes in an hour.
T in Kelvin is equal to degrees Celsius + 273.
