PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Introduction Permeation Test Overview A “Permeation Test” consists of up to two phases that are performed using a Test Cell. The “Cell” may contain a flat film sample or be connected to a package fixture. The Test Phase (always present) is used to measure the transmission rate of the test sample.
Introduction PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Report Generation You can request a report for one or both cells at any time until a new permeation test is started. See the instrument Help System for information on printing reports. Measuring Water Vapor Transmission Rate To make an accurate transmission rate measurement a known concentration Test Gas (usually 100% Water vapor) is applied to one side of the barrier material to be tested and the other side is swept with an water vapor free Carrier Gas (nitrogen).

PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Setting Up Carrier Gas (Nitrogen) The PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 requires a Carrier Gas that is 99.7% nitrogen. A standard T size cylinder will typically provide sufficient gas to operate a single instrument for several weeks. Gas Distribution System Each instrument ships with a local regulator/isolation device (called a Regulator Tee) that can be used to connect the instrument to a common Carrier Gas distribution system.
Setting Up PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Connecting the Gas Lines The PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 has a gas inlet for connection of the Carrier Gas (nitrogen) supply. This compression fitting is intended for use with 1/8” copper tubing. Refer to Figure 2-3 and Figure 2-4 for the location of the fitting and an example of plumbing system diagram.

Preparing for a Test PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Testing Mixed Barriers Simultaneously testing barriers with widely divergent transmission rates is not recommended. The data for both samples may not be accurate when there is a large difference in the two transmission rates. If during a test there is a large difference in the transmission rates, set one cell to Idle and continue testing the other one.
PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Preparing for a Test The Sample Conditioning Time When you condition a sample in the test cell, carrier gas and test gases are routed to the test cell as they are during testing. However, the carrier gas is not routed to the water vapor sensor. This conditioning period allows a sample barrier to acclimate to the conditions within the test cell.
Preparing for a Test PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Determining When to Stop a Test The setting used for the “Test Mode” parameter determines how and when a transmission rate test is stopped (Test Completion). Four different methods of stopping a transmission rate test are provided. The four methods are: “Continuous”, “Standard”, “Convergence By Cycles”...

PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Calibrating the Permeant Sensor Chapter 5: Permeant Sensor Calibration You will need to calibrate the system to ensure accuracy in determining water vapor transmission rates. Calibration also ensures proper automatic compensation in the transmission rates when environmental and other factors cause the system to drift.
Calibrating the Permeant Sensor PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Calibration of the permeant (water vapor) sensor is a two-step process. First, a film sample with a known transmission rate must be tested. Refer to the “Permeant Sensor Calibration Test Setup” in this chapter for information on setting up a film test.

Testing Flat Films PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Preparing for a Film Test Before a test can be conducted there are a number of tasks that must be performed: The samples to be tested must be prepared. The samples must be mounted in a Test Cell and Loaded into the instrument. Finally, if the test requires a Generated RH the Humidifier must be checked and filled if necessary.
PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Testing Flat Films Orienting the Sample When mounting test samples, orientation can be important. Edge leakage or oxidation on some materials can affect the test result. It is important to place the “barrier side towards the carrier”. Follow the guidelines below to minimize edge leakage and oxidation effects.
Testing Flat Films PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Using a Generated RH Test Gas The PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 has the capability of generating a controlled RH from 5 to 90% for the Model H and 50 to 90% for the Model G for the Test Gas. A Generated RH Test Gas is created by moving pressurized gas through a humidifier filled with HPLC-grade water and mixing the wet gas with a dry gas in the appropriate ratios.
PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Testing Flat Films Close the Fill Valve and remove the syringe. Start a ReZero examination using the GoTo control.

PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Testing Packages Package Testing Methods There are many different types of packages and most of them can be tested on the PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34. Most packages can be classified as belonging to one of two categories, rigid packages or flexible packages.
Testing Packages PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Package Mounting Methods The type of fixture required is usually dependent on the type of package, rigid or flexible. Rigid packages and semi-rigid packages (bottles, trays or cups) can often be mounted on a Package Plate. A “fixture” for Flexible packages is created by sealing all unnecessary openings and then sealing (usually with epoxy) two tubes into the package envelope to allow the Carrier Gas to “sweep”...
PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Testing Packages Mounting Pouches and Bags Flexible packages require a different mounting method than rigid packages. Flexible packages can be mounted with the carrier gas tubes entering the top or bottom of the package. The following instructions, along with Figure 7-3 and Figure 7-4 will assist you in mounting the package. Make two cuts in the package just large enough for the ends of the tubing to slip through.
Testing Packages PERMATRAN-W Model 3/34 Operator’s Manual Setting Up and Starting a Package Test After the samples are loaded and the instrument is ready there are a number of test parameters that must be set. There are two types of test parameters, cell parameters and instrument parameters. Cell Parameters are specific to each cell (Sample ID, Sample Thickness).
