OUR BROCHURE
The test measures the rate at which air passes through a material. Here’s a detailed explanation of how the test works:
The Test Principle of Air Permeability Test Apparatus
Sample Preparation:
The team will test the material sample. It is firmly mounted in the test apparatus to prevent air from bypassing.
Controlled Airflow:
A pump or blower drives air through the sample.
The team precisely controls and measures the airflow rate and pressure differential.
Pressure Differential (ΔP):
The experiment applies a known and constant pressure difference across the material.
This air permeability test simulates real conditions.
They are the ones the material will face. We measure the pressure differential in pascals (Pa) and inches of water column (inH2O).
Measurement of Airflow Rate:
The volume of air passing through the material per unit of time is measured. This is the core measurement in an air permeability test.
Most cases measure the airflow rate in cubic centimeters per second (cm³/s) or cubic feet per minute (CFM).
Air Permeability Calculation:
To calculate air permeability, divide the airflow rate by the sample area.
This gives an air permeability value, usually in cm³/s/cm² or CFM/ft². It measures the material’s air permeability.
Air Permeability Test Method or Air Permeability Test Procedure
-
Sample Preparation:
-
Cut a sample of the material to the needed size. The size is set by the testing standard.
-
Ensure the sample is clean, dry, and free from any defects affecting the test results.
-
-
Calibrate the equipment.
-
Calibrate the air permeability tester based on our instructions. Also, follow the relevant testing standard. Ensure that the pressure gauges and flow meters are accurate.
-
-
Mount the Sample:
-
Secure the sample in the test chamber of the air permeability tester. To prevent any air leakage around the edges, clamp the sample tightly.
-
-
Set the pressure differential.
-
Set up the air permeability test device. It should create a specific pressure difference across the sample. The pressure difference is usually chosen based on the material and its use. Testing standards specify common values.
-
-
Initiate Airflow:
-
Start the airflow through the material. The air permeability tester will draw air through the sample or blow air through it.
-
-
Measure airflow rate:
-
Measure the rate of air passing through the sample. The flow rate is often recorded using built-in sensors. It is then shown on the equipment’s readout panel. Ensure that someone measures after the airflow has stabilized.
-
-
Record Environmental Conditions (Optional):
-
Record the temperature and humidity if the test standard requires it. These can affect the air permeability of some materials.
-
-
Calculate Air Permeability:
-
The test results for air permeability will express units such as cm³/s/cm², CFM/ft², or other types. (You can select the Air Permeability Units from the operation screen)
-
-
Repeat the test (optional):
-
Test several samples or various spots on one sample. Then, find the average air permeability.
-
Calibration is performed using 20cm2 upper and lower fixtures, with units selected in mm/s. And you can enter the calibration mode on this Air Permeability Tester operation screen. You can calibrate the air flow and differential pressure.
Please view the air permeability tester operation manual for the detailed calibration steps or contact us.
You should ground the instrument shell reliably. Its grounding resistance should be ≤ 1Ω.
Clean the filtering steel mesh once a month. The mesh is stainless steel. It is best to blow it with high-pressure gas or wash it with water. To wash with water, put it into the instrument after drying. Place the mesh in the designated location.
Take out the lower fixture and see the filtering stencil.
You can use the sealing rubber sheet, supplied as an accessory, to test the airtightness of the device. Contact ChiuVention to replace the rubber sheet when it wears out.
