TS

The TS leak detection machine is the best solution for reliable detection of microcracks orpin-holes affecting the sterility of glass containers

Functioning

Each container tilted in a horizontal position, is tested with a high voltage discharge (up to 40 KV) applied to its two ends. Not leaking containers are perfect isolators and allow the passage of a minimal current while the presence of a microcrack generates an electric discharge with a high current passing through the conductive liquid inside.
Four electrodes repeat the test twice in the upper and lower half of containers allowing the detection of microholes in the range of microns even in liquids with minimal conductivity. The original and patented system to tilt in horizontal position the containers allows a very compact machine, easy to clean and maintain, with a simple size change free from adjustments. Repetitive results and easiness of setup, due mainly to a smart reduction of parameters and integrated test devices of high voltage signals, allow an easy validation of the machine.
