Leak rate requirements in the automotive industry are becoming more and more stringent, driven by fuel economy, safety requirements and emissions control. Water bath testing is very appealing to users, as the leak can be visualized. However, water bath testing is limited to very large leak rates and is not suited for most automotive components. Several other factors also negatively impact the usability of water bath testing. Tracer gas testing is the preferred method around the world to meet the stringent requirements necessary to ensure quality in automotive components today.
The reliable and accurate tracer gas method saves the operator time and reduces cost. The attached brochure details the benefits of switching from the water bath method to tracer gas testing.
