Low-Pressure Test is conducted to identify potential challenges and stresses that the packaging and the products it contains could be exposed to during air transportation. This test is particularly important for products and packages that could be sensitive to a low-pressure environment.
At Medistri, Low-pressure test helps identifying potential issues that could occur during air transport due to changes in pressure, ensuring that the product and its packaging can withstand the low-pressure conditions that are typically experienced during air transport, identifying potential issues before the product is shipped.
👉 At Medistri, we follow ASTM D4169 to conduct Low-Pressure tests. ASTM D4169 provides a uniform basis for evaluating, in a laboratory, the ability of shipping units to withstand the distribution environment.
ASTM D4169 is a standard practice for performance testing of shipping containers and systems. It provides a uniform basis for evaluating, in a laboratory, the ability of shipping units to withstand the distribution environment. This is accomplished by subjecting them to a test plan consisting of a sequence of anticipated hazard elements encountered in various distribution cycles.
The standard is based on available information on the shipping and handling environment, and current industry/government practice and experience. The tests should be performed sequentially on the same containers in the order given. For use as a performance test, this practice requires that the shipping unit tested remain unopened until the sequence of tests are completed.
👉 The results of these tests contribute to determining an “assurance level,” which helps businesses make informed decisions about their packaging solutions.
