The "Canneed model ELT 100 Leak Tester for End"is used to determine the pressure at which ends buckle. This tester is also used to test for pin hole leaks in the tab score and rivet area.
The ELT 100 applies high pressure air to the product side of and end until the end fails. Leaking spots are made visible by revealing bubbles in the water bath. The failure of an end occurs either when the end buckles or when it starts leaking; leakage is generally caused by faulty scores or rivets.
The ELT 100 is easy to use. The test sample is placed on the Change Part, the water chamber is closed, and pressure is applied to the product side of the end. At some point the end will either buckle or start to leak. The pressure at which the failure occurs can be obtained from the front- panel mounted gauge, which incorporates a lazy hand for easy end failure recording.
Each end diameter or shape requires specially adjusted holders, which can be exchanged easily.
