Leak Detection

🔎 Leak Detection System Testing

Leak Detection System Testing is a critical service designed to evaluate the accuracy, responsiveness, and integrity of gas or fluid leak detection systems. At Precision Gas Testing & Inspection, we ensure your leak detection infrastructure is functioning properly — before a real leak puts people, property, or compliance at risk.

✅ What Is Leak Detection System Testing?

This service involves simulating real-world leak conditions to verify that installed detection equipment (e.g., sensors, alarms, control panels) accurately detects leaks, triggers alarms, and communicates with safety systems as intended.

We test for:

  • Sensor responsiveness and sensitivity

  • System calibration and drift

  • Signal transmission (wired or wireless)

  • Alarm activation and fault detection

  • Communication with building management or safety systems

🛠 Common Systems We Test

  • Gas Leak Detection Systems (Hydrogen, Methane, CO₂, Oxygen, SF₆, etc.)

  • Refrigerant Leak Monitors (Ammonia, R-134a, R-410a, etc.)

  • Medical Gas Monitoring Systems

  • Compressed Air or Vacuum Systems

  • Cleanroom and Laboratory Safety Systems

  • Storage Tank Leak Detection Units

  • Semiconductor or High-Purity Gas Systems

📊 Our Testing Approach

  • Simulation of actual leak scenarios using trace gas or controlled release

  • Sensor and alarm verification at different setpoints

  • Visual and audible alert testing

  • Review of event logging and system feedback

  • Inspection of backup systems and power supply

  • Documentation of test results and certification report

🔒 Why It Matters

  • Ensures early detection of hazardous leaks

  • Prevents costly gas loss, system shutdowns, or environmental exposure

  • Maintains compliance with safety standards (OSHA, NFPA, ISO, CSA, etc.)

  • Protects personnel, equipment, and sensitive processes

  • Verifies proper installation and ongoing functionality

📁 Deliverables

  • Full inspection and performance test report

  • Pass/fail documentation for each device

  • Recommendations for corrective actions (if needed)

  • Certification for compliance or audit readiness.
