Hi gerhardl thank you for your response.
For this particular application 100% of actuators assembled will be leak tested. Currently a water bath technique is used where the actuator is pressurised with compressed air and immersed in water, if any air bubbles are present then the actuator fails...
Is anyone aware of any standards/codes of practice relating to acceptable leakge rates for pnematic actuators?
A pressure-drop method is going to be used as a quality check post assembly but a leakage threshold must be known for this approach to work.
Any help with this matter would be greatly...
