Both also have defined maximum ...

The method has a sensitivity of 10 −12 Pa·m 3 ·s −1. Similar to the classical Helium charged sniffer test the test sample is enclosed in a bag, but in contrast to the classic method, the bag is exposed with a helium-free gas, so that the helium concentration inside the bag can reduced from 5·10 −7 to 10 −12 Pa·m 3 ·s −1 .
