T8970 Universal Continuous Measurement Leak Tester For Gas Sector

Continuous precision leak detection for gas

T8970 is a particular leak testing equipment with continuous measurement, designed for specific parts with gas ramps, stoves or repair stations.
This technology will ensure very fast testing in sequence of the various rings and taps of a gas ramp, starting in automatic mode as soon as you connect to the inbound gas supply and displaying the leaks detected in real time.

The “volumetric measurement” function is standard, enabling display of the leak directly in cc/h or cc/min, to meet sector standards.

T8970 has an automatic electronic regulator, which enables stable and continuous adjustment of the test pressure, especially in the tap opening phase.

  • Direct measurement in cc/h or cc/min
  • Automatic adjustment of the pressure
  • Automatic start of the test cycle

Limitless connectivity

The new T8970 equipment includes ports for the USB slave, RS232, RS485, Profinet, EtherNet IP and EtherCAT.

Assembly may also include an optional Ethernet port and a 26-pole connector with 4 inputs and 8 outputs, which are completely programmable, for interfacing with the external valves, safety barriers, switches, etc…

The front panel has a master USB port assembled on it for connection to a USB key to save the tests conducted, backup/restore parameters and upgrade the firmware.
The connection to thermal printers, barcode/data-matrix readers and markers takes place automatically using an internal menu.

  • USB Key
  • High Power Outputs
  • RS232, RS4845, Can, TTY
  • Ethernet and auxiliary connector

Always better measurements with T8970 Leak Tester

The test cycle was further accelerated thanks to processor and coprocessor interaction, maintaining the reliability that has always made ForTest unique.

We can say with certainty that T8970 avails of the most advanced measurement section in the world, thanks to the centring technology in windows and the double Faraday optical-isolated cage, which reduces the settling times under 18 ms.
This gives a real measurement resolution of 0.1 Pa at 1 bar (0.5 Pa at 6 bar), stable and noise-free.

  • Built-in processor and coprocessor
  • Centring technology in windows
  • 0.1 cc/h resolution

Optimised pneumatic section

Assembly of the latest generation solenoid valves has enabled a 30% increase in the filling speed compared to the previous model, maintaining reliability unaltered over time. This instrument do not require expensive maintenance in the pneumatic department. Actually, our objective is to make them increasingly reliable and long-lasting.

  • Filling speed +30%
  • High strength against humidity
  • No periodic maintenance

Innovative Design

What appears to be a simple design exercise, in fact hides an in-depth study to make use and understanding of the equipment as simple as possible.
The front panel is made of a single sheet of tempered glass and aluminium, which makes it extremely easy to clean, making the T8970 suitable for use in the laboratory and on the production line.

The extensive internal menus are easy to understand and the graphic interface was designed to only display important information.

Everything is exactly where it should be.

  • User friendly interface
  • Easy to clean
  • Use in sectors at 360°
