No matter how efficient the cooling system is, the cost of a seal failure is enough to negate all its advantages.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>That's why.<strong>Air tightness testing<\/strong>It should not merely be the final step before shipment, but rather a process that spans the entire chain\u2014from product design verification and component manufacturing to assembly and traceability during mass production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So.<strong>Should the liquid-cooled plate use the direct-pressure method or the differential-pressure method? When is helium mass spectrometer leak detection required? How should the test pressure, hold time, and leak limits be set?<\/strong>This article breaks down each aspect in detail, combining JCGK Jingcheng Engineering's equipment solutions with industry standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading cheese-cake\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--70)\">I. Leakage Risks Lurk in Every Joint of a Liquid-Cooling System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The liquid cooling system consists of a liquid cooling plate, cooling piping, quick-connect fittings, a manifold, and a coolant distribution unit (CDU); each component has a different structure, and the sources of leakage risk vary accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Liquid-cooled plate<\/strong>The risks are concentrated in the welded areas: brazing, friction stir welding, laser welding, and the integrity of the seal between the internal flow channels and the outer wall.<strong>Cooling Piping and Copper Tube Assemblies<\/strong>The weak points are at the welded joints and pipe bends.<strong>Quick-Connect Fittings<\/strong>The sealing rings and connection points\u2014in particular, the deterioration of sealing performance after repeated insertion and removal\u2014require special attention.<strong>Fractionator and CDU<\/strong>&nbsp;It is then necessary to verify the overall seal integrity of the welds, flanges, valves, and pipe connections after the assembly is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The consequences of a leak follow a clear hierarchy:<strong>In mild cases, coolant loss can lead to reduced cooling capacity; in severe cases, contact between the coolant and electrical components can cause a short circuit, which in turn can result in a systemic safety incident.<\/strong>. For mass-production facilities, airtightness testing must provide traceable data, rather than simply yielding a pass or fail result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading cheese-cake\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--70)\">II. Four Testing Methods: What Can Each One Do?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no one-size-fits-all solution for liquid-cooled leak testing. The four mainstream methods\u2014direct pressure, differential pressure, helium mass spectrometry leak detection, and water immersion bubble testing\u2014each have their own limitations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.air-tester.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ye-leng-qi-mi-xing-jian-ce.png\"  class=\"wp-image-8449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.air-tester.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ye-leng-qi-mi-xing-jian-ce.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.air-tester.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ye-leng-qi-mi-xing-jian-ce-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/www.air-tester.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ye-leng-qi-mi-xing-jian-ce-600x400.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" title=\"\u4e00\u6587\u770b\u61c2\u6db2\u51b7\u6c14\u5bc6\u6027\u68c0\u6d4b\u65b9\u6848\uff1a\u4ece\u68c0\u6d4b\u539f\u7406\u3001\u884c\u4e1a\u6807\u51c6\u5230\u81ea\u52a8\u5316\u91cf\u4ea7\u63d2\u56fe1\" alt=\"\u4e00\u6587\u770b\u61c2\u6db2\u51b7\u6c14\u5bc6\u6027\u68c0\u6d4b\u65b9\u6848\uff1a\u4ece\u68c0\u6d4b\u539f\u7406\u3001\u884c\u4e1a\u6807\u51c6\u5230\u81ea\u52a8\u5316\u91cf\u4ea7\u63d2\u56fe1\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Liquid-Cooled Leak Testing: There Is No One-Size-Fits-All Solution<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Direct Pressure Method and Differential Pressure Method: Core Tools for Mass Production<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>direct pressure<\/strong>This is the most direct method of detection:<strong>Gas at a specified pressure is introduced into the workpiece; after a stabilization period, the pressure change is measured, and if it exceeds the set threshold, the workpiece is deemed nonconforming.<\/strong>. The principle is simple, making it suitable for the initial screening of cooling tubes, copper tube welded assemblies, and parts with relatively regular shapes in batch production. It should be noted that the measurement results are sensitive to temperature changes and elastic deformation of the workpiece; the settings for gas filling, equilibration, and testing time directly determine the reliability of the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>differential pressure<\/strong>The approach is more ingenious. Rather than observing the pressure of the test piece in isolation, it<strong>Gas is introduced simultaneously into the test specimen and the reference chamber, and leaks are detected by measuring the pressure difference between the two sides.<\/strong>. This \u201c<strong>Electronic Balance<\/strong>\"This logic can, to a certain extent, offset the interference caused by fluctuations in ambient temperature, making it particularly suitable for liquid-cooled plates, precision-welded parts, and components that require high measurement repeatability. However, the differential pressure method cannot eliminate all temperature drifts\u2014the quality of the reference chamber and the thermal equilibrium of the workpiece remain key variables affecting accuracy.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Helium Mass Spectrometry Leak Detection: A Specialized Tool for Extreme Conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Helium Mass Spectrometry Leak Detection<\/strong>Using helium as a tracer gas,<strong>By detecting helium ion concentration, this method determines the presence, location, and magnitude of a leak, with sensitivity far exceeding that of the air pressure drop method.<\/strong>. Its applications include R&amp;D validation requiring extremely low leak rates, as well as product verification requiring precise detection of micro-leaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, helium testing is not a panacea. Helium is expensive, the supply chain is subject to volatility risks, and the investment in equipment and processes is substantial. More importantly,<strong>Helium test results cannot be directly converted to values obtained using the air pressure drop method.<\/strong>\u2014These two methods measure different physical quantities and cannot be used interchangeably when applying standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Water-Immersion Bubble Method: A Tool for Verification, Not for Mass Production<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Water-Immersion Bubble Method<\/strong>Its advantage lies in its intuitiveness:<strong>Submerge the workpiece in water; if bubbles appear, there is a leak, and the location is immediately obvious.<\/strong>. However, it relies on manual observation, so minor leaks may not always be reliably detected, and it also faces challenges related to subsequent processing, such as water ingress, drying, and cleaning. This method is more suitable for process validation and fault localization than for online mass-production inspection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Guidelines for Selecting Among Four Methods<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Detection Methods<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">core value<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">The Most Suitable Task<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">direct pressure<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Simple structure, fast mass production cycle<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Batch Pre-screening, Routine Seal Validation<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">differential pressure<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Precise differential pressure measurement with strong resistance to interference<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Liquid-cooled plates, precision-welded components<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">helium mass spectrometry<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Extremely high sensitivity, capable of locating leak points<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Extreme Leak Rate Verification, R&amp;D Validation<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Water-Immersion Bubble Method<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Visualization of Leak Locations<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Leak Detection Support and Process Validation<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The ultimate basis for selecting a method is<strong>Target Leakage Rate, Test Conditions, and Physical Verification Results<\/strong>...rather than because a certain method sounds more advanced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading cheese-cake\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--70)\">III.

How Should Test Pressure, Duration, and Leakage Limits Be Scientifically Determined?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the issue engineers are most concerned about, and it\u2019s also the area where they\u2019re most likely to run into problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Test Pressure: Higher Isn't Always Safer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Test pressure must be determined in conjunction with<strong>Product Rated Operating Pressure, Design Pressure Rating Requirements, Sealing Configuration, and Applicable Standards<\/strong>To be determined jointly. Setting the pressure too high may cause deformation of thin-walled structures or subject seals to abnormal stress, thereby introducing new failure risks; setting the pressure too low, on the other hand, may fail to meet validation requirements. Without deviating from the specific product, \u201c<strong>General Test Pressure<\/strong><strong>\"<\/strong>The<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Test Duration: The compressed stabilization phase poses the greatest risk<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A complete dry-type airtightness test procedure consists of four stages:<strong>Inflate<\/strong><em>(Reaches the set pressure)<\/em>\u2192&nbsp;<strong>equilibrium<\/strong><em>(Wait for the temperature and pressure to stabilize)<\/em>\u2192&nbsp;<strong>sensing<\/strong><em>(Measure the change)<\/em>\u2192&nbsp;<strong>Determination and Recording<\/strong><em>(Output)<\/em>The<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The internal flow channels of liquid-cooled plates are complex and have a large volume, and the material may also undergo elastic deformation.

For liquid-cooling systems in new energy vehicle power batteries, QC\/T 1206.2\u20142024 covers a number of validation requirements, including pressure resistance, seal integrity after vibration, weld strength, burst pressure, and high- and low-temperature cycling; airtightness testing is just one of these steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A \"PASS\" result in a leak test confirms that the seal meets the requirements under the current test conditions; it does not serve as proof of the product's reliability over its entire lifecycle.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading cheese-cake\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--70)\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A suitable liquid-cooled airtightness testing solution begins by determining the testing methods based on product structure and failure risks, and then transforms laboratory testing capabilities into repeatable, traceable mass production quality control capabilities through the design of test pressures, equilibration times, leakage limits, test fixtures, and automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are planning a liquid-cooled airtightness test procedure, be sure to<strong>Product Type, Target Leak Rate, Test Pressure, and Mass Production Cycle Time<\/strong>Once these four parameters have been clearly defined, proceed with prototype testing and solution validation\u2014this is the most efficient way to begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.air-tester.com\/en\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"www.air-tester.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shenzhen Jingchenggongke Technology Co., Ltd.<\/a>(JCGK) has established partnerships with several leading brands in the liquid cooling industry and has accumulated extensive experience in providing solutions and practical case studies for applications such as liquid cooling plates, copper tube assemblies, quick-connect fittings, and CDUs.
