According to the electrical principle, the device uses a data acquisition device to collect the voltage change at both ends of the fixed resistor, and judges the integrity of the membrane module according to the change law of the voltage signal. However, the detection method for the integrity of the hollow fiber membrane module mainly adopts a contact measurement method, or can only detect the integrity of a single membrane wire but cannot detect the entire hollow fiber membrane module, the detection cost and the subsequent maintenance cost are high, the detection process may cause secondary damage to the membrane module, and the position of the defective wire in the module cannot be accurately located, and the quality control of the membrane module is difficult.

[0004] A Chinese patent discloses a non-contact hollow fiber membrane integrity detection device, application number: 202311719585.8, which includes a gas transmission device, a film, an optical detection kit, a detection displacement platform and a host computer; after the gas is introduced, a line laser is used to scan the hollow fiber membrane group as a whole, and the defect position coordinates are obtained based on the light spot information reflected back to the camera by the straight line laser. However, although this is a non-contact measurement method, the measurement time is still long, the operation process is cumbersome, and the uneven size of the gas molecules used is difficult to control.

Small molecule gas is used as the detection medium. The entire detection process remains dry and no liquid intervention is required. The position of the defective membrane filament is located online, which reduces the false detection problem in offline detection and wet detection and improves the detection efficiency.
