Methods and apparatus for detecting a vacuum leak within a processing chamber are described herein. More specifically, the methods and apparatus relate to the utilization of a spectral measurement device, such as a spectral gauge, to determine the leak rate within a process chamber while the process chamber is held at a leak test pressure. The spectral measurement device determines the rate of increase of one or more gases within the processing chamber and can be used to determine if the processing chamber passes or fails the leak test.

A leak detection module for checking a seal of an object to be tested using a tracer gas is provided, including: a leak detector; a manipulatable probe; and a human-machine interface including a voice recognition device configured to recognize a voice command controlling the leak detection module. A method for checking the seal of an object to be tested using a tracer gas is also provided.

Methods and apparatus for detecting and measuring gas flow are disclosed in which lidar distance information, acquired during the detection of gas using a lidar sensor, is used together with prevailing wind data to determine local wind data for the leak location. This local wind data, which may comprise one or more vectors or a 3D wind model, is used in the determination of flow rate.

Integrity of a flexible bag is verified by a testing system, using helium to detect existence of a possible hole. The flexible bag is preliminary placed in vacuum chamber of a fluid-tightly isolated enclosure. After connecting a port of the bag to a helium feeding pipe, vacuum suction is performed to obtain vacuum outside the bag in the enclosure. Then, a first amount of helium is diffused in the internal volume of the enclosure through a gas permeable wall, to increase helium partial pressure outside the flexible bag. After, in a test phase while said vacuum suction is still performed, the bag is filled with a second amount of helium. A detector detects information representative of helium partial pressure in the internal volume, to allow detection of helium escaping from the bag, by analysis of a helium partial pressure drop.

The invention relates to an installation (1) for detecting and locating a leak in at least one fluid transport circuit (Ps, Pt), notably an anemometer circuit of an aircraft, having a leak test apparatus (10) including means (12) for detecting a leak in the said at least one fluid transport circuit (Ps, Pt). In one example, the means for locating a leak includes injecting means (Pp, 14, Ev2) of a trace gas under pressure into the said at least one fluid transport circuit (Ps, Pt), which means are situated in the said leak test apparatus (10), and a trace-gas detection probe (30) intended to be moved along the said at least one fluid transport circuit (Ps, Pt) on the outside thereof, in order to locate the leak.
