Description / Abstract:
Application
This specification provides requirements and procedures for hydraulic-pressure leak testing of parts.
Classification
The following classes of tests establish the allowable leakage as follows:
Class A - No visible leakage permitted.
Class B - 2 mL/minute.
Class C - 2 mL/minute for any area bounded by a 1-inch (25-mm) diameter circle.
Class D - Very slow leak allowing the surface to become slightly moist or damp.
Class E - A specified leakage rate acceptable to purchaser.
If a class is not specified, Class A shall apply.
Safety - Hazardous Materials
While the materials, methods, applications, and processes described or referenced in this specification may involve the use of hazardous materials, this specification does not address the hazards which may be involved in such use.
