Abstract: The new European standard EN 1779: 'Leak testing: Criteria for method and technique selection' for the first time provides a systematic classification of all leak testing methods within the scope of application. Moreover, the most important factors of influence and conditions in performing a leak test are addressed. In this way; it should be easier for users to select a suitable testing method.In Annex A of the,standard, all testing methods are systematically tabulated and each technique has been provided with an identification letter and a number. In addition to the respective minimum detectable leakage rate, important details on the measurement principle oral the equipment required as well as, where applicable, restrictions on the test object are added.
