This application provides an
integrity testing system and method for
tubular membrane modules. The testing
system includes a liquid path, a gas path, and a detection path. The liquid path provides a
wetting liquid to the
tubular membrane module, which forms a liquid film on the wall of the filter tube within the module. The gas path provides a pressure-measuring gas to the detection path, which includes a pressure gauge. The
tubular membrane module is connected to the detection path. The liquid path and gas path are connected together at one end of the tubular membrane module, and the pressure gauge is connected to the other end. The
pore diameter of the filter tube is not less than 0.45 μm, the
viscosity of the
wetting liquid is not less than 1.5 mPa·s, and the pressure of the pressure-measuring gas relative to
atmospheric pressure is not less than 0.01 MPa. The
integrity testing method for the tubular membrane module provided in this application includes:
wetting the wall of the filter tube with the wetting liquid, forming a liquid film on the wall of the filter tube; and introducing the pressure-measuring gas from one end of the filter tube to detect the
gas pressure at the other end of the filter tube.
