Gross Leak Tester

Gross Leak Tester - ToronMed™ GLT02

Detects structural failures in sterile medical packaging using positive pressure methods. This instrument identifies major leaks in pouches, bags, and rigid containers effectively. Multiple test modes allow operators to evaluate seal strength and burst pressure simultaneously. Precise electronic flow controllers maintain steady gas regulation throughout the procedure.

Flexible testing methods support both restrained and unrestrained distension for diverse package geometries. Dual load cells accommodate a wide range of samples from small blisters to large boxes. Integrated HD touchscreens display real-time data curves for immediate analysis of material properties. Automated systems store thousands of records to help maintain laboratory traceability.

Features and Technical Advantages

• Multi-Mode Analysis: The system supports burst, creep, creep-to-failure, and pressure maintenance evaluations in one unit.

• Dual Sensor Technology: Two separate load cells manage high-pressure and low-pressure ranges for increased measurement resolution.

• Standard Compliance: Testing protocols align with ASTM F2096, ASTM F2054, and ISO 11607 requirements for global markets.

• Data Management: Internal memory saves up to 100,000 records with automated result judgment and printing capabilities.

• Ergonomic Hardware: Adjustable inflatable heads and modular frames simplify the testing of specialized caps and valves.

Broad Packaging Applications

Medical facilities utilize these testers for sterile bag and box integrity verification. Food and cosmetic manufacturers evaluate the seal performance of aerosol valves and soft tubes. Pharmaceutical departments perform compression resistance testing on blister packs to prevent contamination. Quality teams also assess tamper-evident closures to verify product safety before distribution.

Technical Specifications

Standard Configuration

The primary configuration consists of the main instrument unit, dual internal sensors, and a specialized gross leak test chamber. Operators receive a high-definition touchscreen interface and a built-in micro printer for generating immediate quality reports. Optional software is available for advanced audit trails and communication with laboratory information systems.
