Vacuum box DELTA-VB300
Vacuum Box DELTA-VB300 for Leak Detection in Welded Joints
The Vacuum Box DELTA-VB300 is a compact and efficient tool designed for leak detection in welded joints of sheet metal structures. It is ideal for inspecting tank bottoms, protective shells, vessel elements, pipelines, and other products with one-sided seam access. Using the bubble emission method, the DELTA-VB300 ensures compliance with international standards, including ASTM E515-11 and DIN EN 1593, making it a reliable choice for non-destructive testing (NDT).
This vacuum box is designed for use with an external vacuum pump. The vacuum pump is not included in the standard scope of delivery and can be ordered additionally.
Key Features
- High-Precision Leak Detection: Accurately identifies through-hole defects using vacuum-based pressure drop methods.
- Compact and Portable: Designed for ease of use in field and workshop settings.
- Standards Compliance: Meets industry benchmarks such as ASTM E515-11, DIN EN 1593, GOST 3242-79, and DSTU EN1593-2015.
- Efficient Monitoring: Capable of inspecting large areas quickly and effectively.
Principle of Operation
The Vacuum Box DELTA-VB300 detects leaks using a simple and effective bubble emission method:
- A foaming indicator solution is applied to the welded joint.
- The vacuum box creates an air pressure drop in the chamber cavity over the seam.
- Gas bubbles forming in the indicator solution reveal through-hole defects, enabling visual identification by the operator.
This method provides quick and reliable results, making it ideal for routine inspections.

Applications of the DELTA-VB300
The DELTA-VB300 is a compact vacuum box for leak detection in welded joints of sheet metal structures with one-sided seam access.
It is widely used for inspecting tank bottoms and walls, protective shells, vessel elements, and pipelines where only one side of the weld is reachable.
Field crews rely on the DELTA-VB300 for routine NDT inspections in both workshop and field settings, including areas with limited access. Because the DELTA-VB300 complies with ASTM E515-11 and DIN EN 1593, it fits quality assurance programs in petrochemical, storage tank, and fabrication industries.
