Differential pressure decay leak tester F5800

for the pharmaceutical industryfor bottlesfor aerosol cans

Overview
The ATEQ F5800 in its industrial format (19" 3U) is designed for easy operation and integration into manufacturing operations. It uses differential pressure decay technology and offers a touchscreen graphical interface with simple, intuitive menu-driven operator controls. The instrument is versatile and suitable for a wide range of leak testing applications.

Measurement characteristics
Test pressure measurement
Range — Accuracy — Max resolution
F.S. = 75 mbar* — ± (1.5% of the P + 0.2 hPa) — 0.1% of the full scale
F.S. < 0.3 bar — ± (1.5% of the P + 1 hPa) — 0.1% of the full scale
0.3 ≤ F.S. ≤ 1 bar — ± (1.5% of the P + 3 hPa) — 0.1% of the full scale
1 ≤ F.S. ≤ 5 bar — ± (1.5% of the P + 7.5 hPa) — 0.1% of the full scale
5 ≤ F.S. ≤ 10 bar — ± (1.5% of the P + 15 hPa) — 0.1% of the full scale
10 ≤ F.S. ≤ 20 bar — ± (1.5% of the P + 30 hPa) — 0.1% of the full scale

Pressure drop measurement
Range — Accuracy — Max resolution
0 – 50 Pa — ± (2% of the P + 0.5 Pa) — 0.01 Pa
0 – 500 Pa — ± (2.5% of the P + 1 Pa) — 0.1 Pa
0 – 5000 Pa — ± (2.5% of the P + 10 Pa) — 1 Pa
