5.4.2.2 Checking ULTRAMAT 7 for leaks
Procedure
1. Close the sample gas/reference gas outlet.
2. Connect the sample gas/reference gas outlet to a pressure measuring instrument
(manometer).
3. Pressurize the sample gas/reference gas path with overpressure of 200 hPa / 400 hPa.
4. Wait for approximately 1minute until the sample gas/reference gas reaches the ambient
temperature.
5. Note the pressure.
6. Wait approximately 5 minutes. Note the pressure again.
If the pressure change lies under 1 hPa, the sample gas/reference gas path is adequately tight.
Calculation of leakage rate
The measured pressure drop is tested against the maximum permissible pressure drop
(calculated from the above data). If the actual pressure drop is greater, the test is considered
failed.
The following applies to the maximum permissible pressure drop:
Δp= t ∙ Q
L
/ V
Δp = max. pressure drop
t = test duration
Q
L
= leakage rate
V = Enclosed volume
The enclosed volume V between gas inlet and outlet is:
