The AD-3050 seal test equipment is a manually
opera-ted pneumatic device, intended for use as a
convenient “in process” sampling technique for
checking sealed splices.
Different combinations of in-line, end-/stub-splices
and various ringterminal applications can be pressure
tested in any of the combination of fixtures (8 in total).
There is also a facility to allow leak testing of various
connectors. The tool is also intended for use as a quick
and easy sampling technique for the preliminary
selection of installation conditions where Raychem
splice protection products are used.
TE Connectivity has seen good correlation between
results obtained with the AD-3050 seal test and those
obtained through water immersion testing. However
testing in accordance with the OEM (Original
Equipment Manufacturer) specification is the only way
of confirming that the OEM specification is being met.
The splice products are located in clamps which
deliver the test pressure. The product is immersed in
water and pressure is delivered down the wire(s) to
the sealed area.
The test result is determined visually by looking for
bubbles in the area of the sealing product. Connectors
can also be pressure tested by adapting the separate
supply fixture to any connector type. Use of these
equipments is described in TE Connectivity customer
manual. This equipment can also check for poke
through i.e. where individual wire strands poke
through the installed heat shrinkable sleeve, by using
any applicable measure instruments
