Vacuum Leak Tester – Reliable Testing for Packaging Seal Integrity

Description

Pacorr offers a high-performance Vacuum Leak Tester designed to test the sealing integrity of various packaging materials across industries. Whether it's pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, FMCG, or flexible packaging, maintaining a leak-free seal is critical to ensure product safety, longevity, and compliance with regulatory standards.

With the growing demand for non-destructive and reliable packaging evaluation, Pacorr’s Vacuum Leak Tester stands out as a trusted solution for detecting micro-leaks and seal failures in a controlled vacuum environment.

What is a Vacuum Leak Tester?

A Vacuum Leak Tester is a precision instrument used to detect leaks in packaging by creating a vacuum environment. The sample is placed inside a transparent chamber, and a vacuum is applied. If any leaks are present, they can be visually detected as air bubbles escaping from the test specimen submerged in water (bubble emission method) or monitored digitally for pressure drop.

This testing method is non-destructive for rigid packs and critical in identifying weak seals, pinholes, and improper closures in pouches, blister packs, sachets, and containers.

Applications of Vacuum Leak Tester

Pacorr’s Vacuum Leak Testing is ideal for:

• Pharmaceutical Packaging: Blister packs, vials, ampoules, and strip packs need airtight seals to ensure drug efficacy.

• Food & Beverage Packaging: Ensures oxygen/moisture doesn’t enter, preserving freshness and shelf life.

• FMCG & Personal Care: Verifies the seal quality of shampoo sachets, cream tubes, etc., ensuring customer safety and satisfaction.

• Flexible Packaging Films: Leak testing of flexible laminated pouches and bags used in bulk packaging.

• Plastic and PET Bottles: Detects micro-leaks or closures that may fail under pressure.

Working Principle of Pacorr Vacuum Leak Tester

1. The sample is placed in the vacuum chamber and submerged in water.

2. Vacuum is applied using the built-in vacuum pump.

3. The sample is held under vacuum for a specified dwell time.

4. If a leak exists, air bubbles will be seen escaping from the packaging.

5. The vacuum is released after the observation period.

Pacorr’s equipment may also include digital pressure displays, timers, and vacuum gauges for better control and analysis.
