Description
After the application of a step pressure change there is an instantaneous deflection of the beam monitor windows. Following this, within minutes a leaking monitor will begin to display an increasingly large percentage in the accumulation time for 100 nC, and the sense of this change will be opposite to that of a leak between jig and atmosphere.
