Abstract:
A method for detecting an operation malfunction of a leakage inspector causes the leakage inspector to execute a calibration process and an inspection process. The calibration process seals air inside a first device serving as a reference device and measures changes in pressure over two time intervals. The inspection process seals air inside a second device to be checked for a leak and measures changes in pressure over two time intervals. A ratio is calculated from these measured changes in pressure and the ratio is used to determine whether an operation malfunction occurs in the leakage inspector.
