Pipe Leakage Testing Machine
Detects leakage in thermoplastic pipes, joints, and fittings under pressure. Ensures integrity for water supply, gas distribution, and industrial piping systems.
Leak-tightness of pipe joints and fittings under pressure
A pipeline is only as tight as its joints. The pipe leakage testing machine pressurises assembled pipe, joint and fitting specimens and detects any pressure loss, with automated pressure cycles under PLC control. It is used by pipe and fitting producers for routine quality control and type testing of joint designs for water supply, gas distribution and industrial piping, for example to EN 1277 and ISO 13844.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the pipe leakage test show?
Whether an assembled joint or fitting stays tight under the specified pressure conditions — a pressure loss indicates leakage.
Which standards does it support?
Leak-tightness tests of thermoplastic pipe joints such as EN 1277 and ISO 13844, along with the applicable product standards.
Is the test automated?
Yes. Pressure cycles are run and monitored automatically by the PLC.
How does it differ from the vacuum leak tester?
This machine tests under positive internal pressure; the vacuum leak testing machine checks tightness under negative pressure. Many joint standards require both.
