Our Valve Leak Measurement System (VLMS) is a self-contained counting instrument for automating the industry-standard practice of leak detection by bubble formation using a submerged tube in water. The VLMS provides accurate measurement of leaks that are too small for conventional flow meters to reliably detect. A simple touch-screen operator interface enables configuration and control. Bubble count, inferred flow rate, elapsed time, and camera images are provided in real time as the test progresses. All test data including camera video can be stored to file. We also offer customization services in order to interface VLMS software directly to your database or to provide additional real-time information. The VLMS is compatible with API Standard 527, Seat Tightness of Pressure Relief Valves.

Case Study: G Systems Valve Leak Measurement System (VLMS)
To learn more about the development of the VLMS, read this case study. The G Systems VLMS provides accurate, automated leak detection measurement of small leaks and is ideal for applications that must be absolutely airtight, including medical devices, pharmaceutical equipment, and oil, gas and plumbing valves. It reduces operator error and fatigue. A camera opens the doors to measurements that before were never possible including more accurate rates and acceleration. The VLMS can be used from the engineers’ lab to the bench and even out in the field. The software can be customized to your company platform and requirements.
