Abstract[English]
The invention relates to a leak detection device for characterizing a connector assembly (2) interconnecting two hydraulic elements, which has a test pipe (1) comprising a blind-end first portion (C1) and a second portion (C2) coupled to the first portion via the connector assembly, the second pipe portion being pressurized under light gas, the test pipe containing a predetermined quantity of molten salts (SF), the device comprising dynamics of movement of the test pipe, which is movable between a first position (P1) in which the connector zone (Z2) is immersed in the molten salts contained in the test pipe and a second position (P2) in which the connector zone is not immersed in the molten salts but is subjected to the light-gas pressure, the device comprising a sealed chamber (3) containing at least the connector.[French]
Dispositif de détection de fuite pourcaractériser un montage de raccord (2) reliant deux éléments hydrauliques entre eux, avec une canalisation de test (1) comprenant une première portion (C1) en cul-de-sac et une deuxième portion (C2) couplée à la première portion via le montage de raccord, la deuxième portion de canalisation étant mise en pression sous gaz léger, la canalisation de test contenant une quantité prédéterminée de sels fondus (SF), le dispositif comprenant une cinématique de déplacement de la canalisation de test, déplaçable entre une première position (P1) dans laquelle la zone du raccord (Z2) est baignée par les sels fondus contenus dans de la canalisation de test et une deuxième position (P2) dans laquelle la zone du raccord n'est pas baignée par les sels fondus, mais soumise à la pression de gaz léger, le dispositif comprenant une enceinte hermétique (3) renfermant au moins le raccord.
