The invention discloses an
air tightness detection device for a corrugated
pipe compensator. The
air tightness detection device comprises a first blind
flange, a second blind
flange, a fastening
assembly, a sealing
assembly, an air exhaust connecting
pipe, vacuumizing equipment, a vacuum gauge, a vacuum baffle valve, a
helium mass spectrometer leak detector and an external
helium spray gun. The invention also discloses a
bellows compensator
air tightness detection method. The method comprises the following steps: S1, assembling and sealing; s2, performing initial inspection; s3, vacuumizing is carried out; s4, maintaining pressure and observing; and S5, judging a result. The technical scheme of combining negative pressure vacuum and
helium mass spectrum
leak detection is adopted, the characteristics that helium molecules are small in
diameter, low in background content and high in response speed are utilized, the
leak detection sensitivity is extremely high and is far superior to a traditional bubble method, a negative pressure maintaining method and an SFsniffing method, high-precision detection can be stably achieved, and the
leak detection accuracy is greatly improved. The device can meet the requirements of extra-high-
voltage GIL pipelines, chemical high-risk medium pipelines and other scenes with extremely high requirements for sealing performance, and the reliability and accuracy of detection results are greatly improved.
