Global producer of temperature control products required a leak test system for HVAC compressors. Customer requirements included:
- High pressure leak test
- Mix and boost helium gas to minimize cost
- Correlate refrigerant leak to helium leak and validate for the customer
- Heavy compressor on a power free roller conveyor
We engineered a custom leak test system using using the helium hard vacuum method with mixed gas booster and air proof test.
Key Features
- Low cost horizontal cylindrical chamber with dual doors and integration to production line roller conveyor
- Simple operator loading with pallet
- Gas booster and custom software to mix and boost test gas
- Integrated air proof test to 300 psia
- Calibrated leak with master part to calibrate and validate the test
- Enclosed pumping system to reduce noise
