ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for testing flexible sealed packages of the type wherein the package is at least partially made of a flexible, electrically conductive foil or metallic laminate wherein the capacitance between the flexible conductive foil or metallic laminated of the package and a fixed electrode is measured when the package is subjected externally to a partial vacuum. The apparatus includes an evacuable chamber adapted to support a package under test therewithin so that at least part of the flexible foil or metallic laminate portion of the package lies opposite said fixed electrode and a means for monitoring the capacitance between the electrode and that part of the foil or metallic laminate when the chamber is evacuated.
