Seminar about Tightness Measurements and Leak Testing Methods.
The above article is too long (~1.4 MB), to install as a webpage.  The loading time would be too long and nobody would read it online. The intention of this article is to give information on leak tightness problems to those who are involved, for example in design of parts, which must fulfil some leak rate specification or those involved in manufacturing leak tight parts.
 
The article cannot make the reader into a specialist who can practise all aspects of leakdtection. This also needs practical training. However, a better understanding of the problems involved is gained after reading it. 
 
On this page is shown the list of contents by which the reader decides whether he wishes to buy the booklet for a small charge (Euro 45,00). If so, please send me an order by e-mail. You will get then an invoice and after payment you get the password  and the download informations within 24 hours.
