Devices measure seals quality

Versaperm has introduced a quick and simple way to measure the quality of seal materials, and of the finished products, joints, enclosures and equipment that use them.

The Versaperm meter can cope with several samples at a time, often giving a reading in as little as 30 minutes - whereas conventional gravimetric measurement techniques take several days and are significantly less consistent.

The WVTR meter gives a series of digital readouts that can be recorded or simply read off a screen.

It needs no recalibration and requires minimal training to give results that can be accurate to better than 1ppm for some gases.

Sensitivities are in the range of 0.05-3,200g/m2/day.

A wide range of configurations is available and a variety of vapour sensors can be used, from those specific to water vapour or hydrocarbons, through to those that can measure virtually any compound.

Single and multi-sample systems are available for testing samples from the size of a thimble up to a pallet load and beyond.

As well as manufacturing the instruments, Versaperm offers a vapour permeability laboratory service for companies that need to test samples on an irregular basis.
