Jan 01, 2001 · Leak detection sensitivity is related to the testing time, the pressure transducer resolution and the volume. The most advanced systems allow for measuring pressure variation up to 70 Pa (0.010 psig) at test pressure and, depending on the volume of the units to be tested, the leak detection cycle can be as short as 30 seconds and
