SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING A POSSIBLE LOSS OF INTEGRITY OF A FLEXIBLE BAG FOR BIOPHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCT
Integrity of a flexible bag is verified by a testing system, using helium to detect existence of a possible hole. The 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 and after pre-pressurizing the bag with nitrogen, a test is performed in a vacuum suction mode for a detection area outside the bag in the enclosure. Before starting the test phase, the bag is additionally filled with an amount of helium. A detection 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. A small amount of nitrogen is sufficient to decrease leak rate mean value, so that uncertainty regarding integrity of some bags decreases.
Displacement device, testing device and method for leakage testing of a connection of a tip cap with a syringe
The present invention relates to a displacement device, DD, for providing a displacement of a syringe closure system for a syringe relative to the syringe, a testing device, TD, and a method for leakage testing of a connection of a syringe closure system for a syringe with the syringe.
Method and apparatus for an integrity test of a flexible container with inspection fluid
A method, a device and a use of the device are provided for carrying out an integrity test on a test container (1) that has at least one flexible casing material. The method includes the steps of: filling a test fluid into the test container (1); and detecting the presence of test fluid directly outside the test container (1). The test fluid is designed in such a way that the permeation rate of test fluid through undamaged casing material of the test container (1) is not greater than 1.Math.10.sup.−6 mbar.Math.m/(s.Math.bar).
Leak detection with oxygen
A method for detecting a leak in a test object, including inserting the test object into a test chamber; filling the test object with a test gas; and adjusting a pressure in the test chamber and a pressure in the test object such that the test chamber pressure is lower than the test object pressure. The test chamber contains air and the test object is filled exclusively with a gas containing no molecules with oxygen atoms. In order to detect a leak in the test object, an oxygen proportion of the air in the test chamber is measured with an oxygen sensor.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE INTEGRITY OF CONTAINERS
The disclosure relates to system and method for determining the integrity of a container containing at least one gas. The disclosure relates to an environment with a lower absolute gas pressure than the pressure inside the container, a light source and a detector arranged to transmit a light signal to the detector through the environment, or a volume connected to the environment, but outside the container, and wherein a control unit for determining, based on said transmitted light signal being detected, if a level of the at least one gas inside the container is altered in the environment or the connected volume.
Battery pack leakage detection system and detection method based on tracer gas cumulative test
A battery pack leakage detection system and detection method are provided. The system includes a test container, a gas filling subsystem, a gas stirring subsystem and a test analysis subsystem. The method can test the sealing performance of the battery pack under the atmospheric pressure, so that the battery pack can meet the corresponding sealing grade requirements of IP67 and IP68. The method not only solves the problem that the traditional gas detection method cannot meet the test requirements of IP67 and IP68 due to insufficient measurement precision, but also solves the problem that the traditional vacuum helium detection method will damage the battery cells in the battery pack.
Device and method for container closure integrity testing
Devices and methods for container closure integrity testing by leak testing, in particular of pharmaceutical containers, which are composed of two parts, the container itself, which shows an opening, and a closure system that is used to close this opening of the container, such as a lid; and their application in quality control.
