Vacuum Box for Leak Testing with Interchangeable Base (BAV-7025)

Non-contractual photo

Easily control the tightness, waterproofing of your welds and sheets with the new generation BAV7025 vacuum box with interchangeable base.

The BAV7025 is an NDT vacuum box designed for flat surfaces, tailored for leak testing welds, sheets, waterproofing membranes, and coverings on roof terraces, flat roofs in various industrial sectors. Its interchangeable base offers great flexibility to inspect different surfaces and weld configurations, enabling rapid leak detection.

PRESENTATION ET APPLICATIONS

The BAV7025 is a vacuum box, also known as a bubble box, specifically designed for checking the tightness of flat surfaces (configuration 1), for example:

Storage tanks:
- Tank bottom plates
- Shells with a curvature radius greater than 8 meters
Boat hulls
Overlap and butt welds
Roofing waterproofing sheets and membranes, flat or terrace roofs
Any other surfaces (metallic or non-metallic) where a pressure gradient can be applied

Its two-part design consisting of the main body and an interchangeable base addresses the challenges of equipment maintainability (maintenance), versatility, and ensures good readability of indications (height of the viewing window).

The BAV-7025 vacuum box can optionally accommodate the internal corner base of the BAV-7025IA (configuration 2) to increase its inspection capabilities.

Our vacuum box can operate either by compression using the venturi system or by suction using our specially adapted optional vacuum pump.

KIT COMPOSITION (excluding options):

Main body/reading chamber comprising:

Handling grips
Vacuum gauge
Hybrid vacuum system:
- By venturi effect / using a compressor
- By suction / using a vacuum pump
Vacuum adjustment valve for:
- Flow limitation when using a compressor
- Leakage flow when using a vacuum pump
Quick base attachment system
50 cm extension with a quick female connector to cat’s head (Vacuum by venturi effect / compressor)

Interchangeable flat base comprising:

Seal between the reading chamber and the base
Interface foam with the surface under inspection

AVANTAGES

Performance

2 cm high viewing window for clear and reliable reading of indications

– Ultra-efficient sealing foam for easy and quick vacuum generation – Precision gauge to ensure proper control conditions – Precise vacuum adjustment with a valve – Quick detachment of the vacuum box by a rapid vacuum release system

Quality

Robust and reliable design for durable use in demanding industrial environments

–
High-quality foam offering excellent resistance to abrasion and hydrocarbons

Versatility

Operation in venturi effect mode (by compressor) or suction mode (vacuum pump)

– Foam geometry and quality allow adaptability to many sheet geometries. The BAV-7025 can inspect shells on their concave or convex parts for curvatures from a diameter of 20 meters. For smaller diameters, down to a minimum of 5 meters, the BAV-4025 is preferred. – Great flexibility with interchangeable bases to adapt to the most complex geometries and configurations of sheet welds

Durable and resistant foam

Triangular geometry to increase relative pressure on the foam and allow maximum deformation on the surface of the inspection area.

–
35 mm foam height and 40/50 Shore 00 hardness for optimal adaptation to surfaces.
–
Foam offering longevity and great resistance to abrasion, as well as good hydrocarbon resistance, for durable and reliable use in demanding environments.

FEATURES

Two-Part Modular Design

The BAV-7025 consists of the main body and an interchangeable base for maximum adaptability to welds and sheet geometries. This design has numerous advantages, including greatly facilitated maintenance.

Interchangeable Bases

The base of our BAV-7025 vacuum box is designed to adapt to flat surfaces, fillet welds, and possibly double fillets. The interchangeability of the base allows you to keep the same body and change the type of base according to your inspection setup.

Easy Reading of Indications

The height of the interchangeable base of our bubble box creates a gap of about 2 cm between the main body and the surface under inspection. This provides a significant viewing window for easy and reliable reading of indications.

Vacuum by Venturi Effect

Possibility of operation in venturi effect mode by connecting a compressor either directly to the quick pneumatic system or to the 50cm cat’s head extension provided.

Vacuum by Vacuum Pump

Possibility of operation in suction mode by connecting our specially adapted optional 220v vacuum pump.

Precise Vacuum Control

The vacuum gauge (-1 Bar, CE certified) allows precise adjustment of the vacuum necessary for inspection, thanks to the venturi mode adjustment valve and our innovative regulation system for the optional vacuum pump.

Options

Hardened transport case

To safely transport your vacuum box, we offer a hardened transport case with a machined imprint in the shape of the vacuum box to prevent any movement.

Gauge with calibration certificate

We standardly provide a CE-certified but uncalibrated gauge. Therefore, we offer an option of a calibrated gauge with a verification certificate for your standardized inspections.

Vacuum pump PAV-2209

To use the vacuum box in suction mode with a vacuum pump. We offer a customized 220V 9CFM vacuum pump adapted for field conditions. The optional “vacuum pump” pack includes a 2-meter pneumatic hose with our innovative flow regulation and rapid depressurization
