Scope of Leak-Free Testing
- Leak-free testing can be configured in the [Basic Information] menu of the Welded Sheet Metal Service.
- Leak tests are performed on all continuous welds.
- *For the “Leak-Free” setting method, refer to the operation manual “Setting Basic Information_Specify Whether Leak-Free Verification Is Required“; for the applicable range, see below.
