Summary

In the US, the Clean Air Act has set limits on the concentration of methane in atmospheric emissions. Designers of valves and sealing equipment are increasingly using helium as a reference fluid for quality testing. When leakage in terms of ppm of helium or methane is examined, a certain degree of correlation between these two gases appears to emerge. However, valve for valve, discrepancies are wide.
