CHEMICAL & NUCLEAR CONTAINMENT AIRTIGHTNESS TESTING AUSTRALIA

SCROLL

Precision Airtightness Compliance for High‑Consequence Facilities

At Aerotight, we deliver specialist airtightness testing solutions for nuclear facilities and chemical hazard environments across Australia. In industries where hazardous gases or radioactive particulates are present, containment failure is catastrophic. Our services are engineered for professionals demanding zero leakage performance and compliance‑grade verification.

Why Airtightness Matters in Nuclear & Chemical Containment

For critical containment systems – from radioisotope labs to hazardous chemical stores – the building envelope is a final engineered barrier. Compliance with ARPANSA regulations, ISO standards, and state environmental licences requires airtight integrity verification. Aerotight testing provides the data and documentation your Safety Case, Compliance Audit, or EPC submission requires.

Comprehensive Containment Testing Services

Specialist Nuclear Containment Integrity Assessments

Our nuclear containment testing protocols cover power plants, radiological laboratories, and decommissioning zones:

Quantitative Containment Verification: High‑precision blower door and tracer gas testing confirms leak rates meet ISO 10648‑2 classification standards.
Static & Dynamic Enclosure Analysis: Ensures containment under both normal operations and transient loads.
ISO Standard Alignment: ISO 16647 principles ensure compliance for airborne particulate and gas control.

Precision Chemical Containment Testing

For chemical storage and high‑hazard laboratories:

Negative Pressure Validation: Confirms inward leakage performance.
Leak Location Diagnostics: Ultrasonic and inert gas techniques locate micro‑breaches without damaging containment coatings.
Regulatory Evidence: Compliance reporting aligned with AS 1940, WHS regulations, and relevant state legislation.

Standards & Compliance You Can Trust

ISO & International Benchmarks

Aerotight testing is informed by global standards:

ISO 16647: Design and operation of airborne confinement systems.
ISO 10648‑2: Ensures containment under both normal operations and transient loads.
ISO 17873 & ISO 16646:Additional containment and ventilation standards.

Australian Regulatory Context

ARPANSA & Safety Codes: ILRT methodologies aligned with Australian nuclear facility requirements..
Environmental Protection Licence Evidence: NATA‑traceable airtightness reports support state EPA compliance.
WHS & Hazardous Storage Regulations: Testing procedures support legal obligations under chemical safety standards.
