'chilled beam' dry leak test
portable leak
testing
TQC has specialised in
the leak testing of components for many years. The fixture below is
designed to test the integrity of modular 'chilled beam' ceiling units. These 4.5m long
units consist of two or three heat exchanger coils and a linking network of pipes and
assorted valves. In operation they contain water flowing at three bar and 14-17°C.
'Chilled beam' units are becoming
increasingly popular in building design, providing quiet, draught free comfort cooling
without the need for air conditioning
The fixture shown is capable of testing the
beams at both the manufacturing factory and installation site.

A fast clean and dry test
Quantifiable leak testing
Calibration to suit the requirements of
