Military Leak Testing Solutions
Tough Soldiers Need Equipment As Strong and Resilient as They Are…The Challenge: Mission-Critical Equipment Must Not Fail
From arid high-temperature deserts to high-humidity jungles…
Enduring blasts designed to shatter bodies and bones…
Avoiding hypoxia in submarines and high-soaring jet fighters alike…
Our fighting forces endure these harsh conditions and more that are unimaginable to most of us. Military commanders know that the soldiers they train need equipment as failsafe and durable as engineering talent can muster. We’re charged with using our scientific know-how to anticipate and preclude equipment failure even in the harshest of conditions. Dust cannot render sophisticated battlefield electronics useless. Hazardous materials in armaments must be perfectly sealed and contained. Manufacturing methods for ammunition rounds must be defect-free.
If you are engineering and manufacturing military solutions you need best-in-class test instrumentation to achieve the required surefire standard.
InterTech’s Solution: Precision Leak Detection for Military Equipment
Advanced Mass Flow Leak Testing
InterTech’s patented mass flow leak test sensors™ provide unrivaled accuracy in detecting leaks across a broad range of pressures and environmental conditions. Unlike generic solutions, InterTech’s technology is engineered specifically for military applications, ensuring:
- Precision detection from 0.005 sccm to 200 sccm—unmatched sensitivity for mission-critical components.
- Testing in both vacuum and positive pressure conditions to simulate real-world battlefield scenarios.
- ISO 17025 traceable calibration with <5% Gauge R&R, ensuring repeatable, verifiable test accuracy.
- High-speed throughput that enables rapid, large-scale testing without sacrificing precision.
Custom Fixture Designs for Mission-Critical Components
InterTech’s custom-engineered test fixtures allow military manufacturers to test miniaturized and highly sensitive components without:
- Marring or damaging the parts.
- Introducing contamination that could compromise performance.
- Slowing down testing throughput, thanks to quick-change tooling that accommodates various part sizes.
Unmatched Benefits of InterTech’s Military Leak Testing Systems
IP67/68 Certified Leak Detection for Defense Equipment
InterTech’s testing technology is engineered for absolute reliability, meeting IP67 and IP68 standards to protect military components from dust, moisture, and environmental exposure. This ensures:
- Battery cases, electronic housings, and AV sensor enclosures remain sealed under battlefield conditions.
- Sealed wearables and tactical devices can endure repeated exposure to water, dust, and debris.
- Critical package integrity testing prevents premature failure of aerospace and ground-based equipment.
Fastest and Most Accurate Military Leak Detection
Unlike off-the-shelf solutions, InterTech’s military leak testing systems are engineered with:
- Single direct leak measurements for maximum accuracy—ensuring mission-critical reliability.
- Automated temperature compensation and electronic calibration tools—eliminating environmental variables that could skew results.
- Lean Test™ and Fast Fill™ methodologies—accelerating test cycles without compromising precision.
Automated rejection of gross leakers—removing defective components before fine leak testing even begins.
User-Friendly, Intelligent Test Automation
InterTech’s TechPress™ with custom tooling streamlines testing with:
- Consistent sealing force—eliminating over- and under-clamping that could distort results.
- Quick-change tooling—adapting to various part dimensions for rapid, high-mix testing environments.
- Built-in error-proofing—ensuring repeatable, auditable results with minimal operator input.
Field-Tested Reliability: Case Studies in Military Leak Detection
Military Wearable Watch Leak Test
A sealed transmitter and battery module required IP67/68 certification to ensure operational reliability in wet and dusty environments.
InterTech Solution: M1075 Mass Flow Leak Detector
- Test Rate: 60 pph
- Leak Limit: 30 microliters/min (0.03 sccm) at 49 kPa (7.1 psig)—equivalent to 1 drop of water at 5 meters depth for 30 minutes.
- Custom Tooling: Designed for quick-change fixtures on the InterTech TechPress™ module to ensure high efficiency.
Military GPS Instrument Leak Test
A hermetically sealed GPS device required airtight integrity to prevent performance degradation in extreme battlefield conditions.
InterTech Solution: M1075 Mass Flow Leak Detector
- Leak Limit: 1 sccm at 50 psig
- Efficiency Optimization: Automatic gross leak rejection before fine leak testing, streamlining defect elimination.
These case studies illustrate why InterTech’s military leak testing solutions are trusted by leading defense manufacturers worldwide.
