Rigid-container & primary-package leak methods
Choose the defect question and package state before selecting vacuum, gross liquid leakage, mass extraction or visual inspection. Empty-container testing and filled-system performance are not interchangeable.
Sample considerations
- ASTM D4991: Empty-container geometry, closure configuration and defect question
- ASTM D5094/D5094M: Filled system, liquid properties, closure settings and handling
- ASTM F3287: Package volume, material, contents, fixture and validated detection capability
- ASTM F1886/F1886M: Package form, inspection access, lighting and documented defect criteria
