Application requirements
Valve manufacturers use pressure degradation to meet international leakage standards. However, logging the pressure reduction over a time period is difficult to administer and can be very labor intensive. Instead, the manufacturers are looking to measure the flow across the valve seats under test. This method has to reduce testing time, improve the accuracy of the overall valve seat leak integrity and make the outputs accessible for data logging.

Process solution
Bronkhorst used Coriolis mass flow meters in collaboration with the manufacturers to allow a measure of the very low flow leak rates. Flow rates as low as 50 milligrams per hour have easily been achieved within these very compact instruments. The implementation of the flow instruments has given the operators an instant reading for a pass or a failure, reducing production time and increasing productivity and quality.
With the low flow measurement technology in the system the manufacturer can now use the valuable data logging capabilities to continuously improve the manufacturing process and confidently report to the customers.
