Internal Pressurization Optional Kit

Internal Pressurization Kit for ASTM F2096 Bubble Leak Testing

Inject controlled compressed air into flexible or low-headspace packaging for water bath bubble leak testing and package integrity evaluation.

Add Controlled Internal Pressure for Better Leak Detection

The internal pressurization kit introduces compressed air into the package while it is submerged in water, making gross leaks visible through bubble emission.

This approach is especially useful for flexible packaging, sachets, doypacks and vacuum-packed products with limited residual air.

What’s Included

Internal Pressurization Kit Components

The optional kit includes the main components required to inject and regulate compressed air during package integrity testing.

Needle kit for ASTM F2096 internal pressurization bubble leak testing
01

Needle Kit

Designed to introduce compressed air into the package while minimizing unnecessary damage to the test area.

Seal pads and septums for ASTM F2096 package leak testing
02

200 Seal Pads / Septums

Rubber sealing disks help create a tight seal around the injection point and reduce air escape during testing.

Pressure regulator for ASTM F2096 internal pressurization testing
03

Pressure Regulator

Controls injected air pressure according to the package format and selected testing conditions.

Recommended Applications

When Should You Use Internal Pressurization?

Internal pressurization is especially useful when package geometry or low residual headspace makes conventional vacuum testing more difficult to interpret.

  • Development centers handling multiple package presentations
  • Sachets and doypacks with very little residual air
  • Pharmaceutical applications using ASTM F2096
  • Vacuum-packed products such as fish, meat and cheese

ASTM F2096 Applications

Internal Pressurization for Bubble Leak Testing

ASTM F2096 is a gross-leak test method based on internal pressurization and visual bubble detection while the package is submerged.

The DVACI optional kit provides the air injection and pressure regulation components needed to support this type of package integrity testing.
