Pacorr's Bottle Burst Tester is a precision quality testing instrument designed to assess the durability and strength of PET bottles and containers. It simulates the pressurized environment these containers face, especially when filled with carbonated beverages, to determine their capacity to withstand internal pressure over time and under various conditions such as stacking and transportation.
Why Bottle Burst Testing is Critical
For PET Bottle Manufacturers
- Quality Assurance: Verifying that bottles can sustain the pressure of carbonated beverages without failure.
- Safety and Compliance: Ensuring bottles meet safety standards and avoid potential hazards during storage and transport.
- Brand Reputation: Preventing product failures that can damage a brand's reputation and consumer trust.
For The Beverage Industry
- Packaging Integrity: Guaranteeing the packaging does not compromise the product's quality or safety.
- Efficiency and Economy: Reducing the risk of product recalls and wastage due to packaging failures.
Features and Specifications of PCBBT-1
- Versatility: Can test a wide range of bottle sizes and shapes, from 0 to 28 mm PCO PET bottles, with capacities up to 3 liters.
- Customizable: Specifications like the pressure range (0-12 Bar/ 175psi) can be tailored to specific client or industry needs.
- User Safety: Ensures operator safety with a secure test chamber during the burst test.
- Operational Ease: Features an analogue model for straightforward operation.
The Bottle Burst Tester evaluates PET bottle material against increasing pressure by artificially generating calculative pressure. This process involves setting a defined pressure and duration for the test. Once the bottle is placed inside, the test chamber is closed and secured. The evaluation is based on how much pressure the bottle can withstand and for how long before it bursts.
Pacorr's Commitment to Quality
Pacorr, an ISO 9001:2015 & CE certified company, showcases its commitment to quality through its extensive range of testing instruments, including the Bottle Burst Tester. Their products are integral to ensuring the safety and reliability of PET packaging across various industries.
Beverages with gas mixed in them like soft drinks require pressurized packaging. PET bottles or Glass bottles are the foremost choices for packaging these beverages as they are the most suitable material that can sustain pressurized gas in them for a long time. But the drawback with glass bottles is that they are sensitive and tend to break or develop cracks easily. Hence, PET Bottles remains the most appropriate material for aerated drink packaging.
However, PET bottles must qualify for certain quality standards prior they are selected for packaging of aerated beverages. Once the aerated liquid is filled inside and sealed packed, the bottle develops a defined pressure inside them. During long storage, the pressures remain the same. Moreover, when stored in stacks keeping one bottle on another the material experience double pressure, one which the gas exerts from inside and the vertical stacking load. Also, during transportation, the bottles are tending to shake while in a moving transport, which leads to more pressure inside.
Such situations can lead to bursting of the bottle because of excessive pressure load and turn into product failure bringing a drop in brand reputation. Hence to avoid such a crisis one must ensure that the product is tested before production. Bottle burst tester helps the manufacturer evaluate the capacity of PET bottle material against increasing pressure by developing artificial calculative pressure.
The testers bring highly accurate modules to test the strength capacity of bottles with a precision-based analogue pressure gauge. The gauge is supported with buttons with which one can set defined pressure for the test and duration can also be defined. The equipment allows the testing of a wide variety of bottles with different shapes and sizes. Once the bottle specimen is placed inside the test chamber is closed and tightened to ensure the safety of the user during the burst is taking place. The evaluation is made on the basis of how much pressure for how much time the bottle took before it burst.

A Bottle Burst Tester is a specialized device used to determine the strength and pressure resistance of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles and containers. It simulates the conditions these containers will face when filled with carbonated or pressurized liquids to ensure they can withstand internal pressures without bursting, ensuring safety and compliance with industry standards.
Bottle Burst Testing is crucial for ensuring the safety, quality, and durability of PET bottles used primarily in the beverage industry. It helps manufacturers avoid potential product failures that could result in consumer harm or damage to the brand's reputation. This testing is essential for products that require pressurized packaging, like carbonated drinks, to ensure they can handle the stress during storage, transportation, and use.
A Bottle Burst Tester works by applying controlled pressure to the interior of a PET bottle or container until it bursts. The device allows for the adjustment of pressure levels and duration to mimic various real-world conditions. It measures the maximum pressure the bottle can withstand before failure, providing critical data on its strength and reliability.
Yes, modern Bottle Burst Testers, like the models offered by Pacorr, are designed to accommodate a wide range of bottle sizes and shapes. Specifications such as the size range for the bottle neck, diameter, and height, as well as the bottle's capacity, can often be customized or adjusted to fit different testing requirements, making these devices versatile tools for quality control.
While the basic principle of applying pressure to test bottle integrity remains consistent, Bottle Burst Testers can vary in terms of features, specifications, and operation modes. Some models offer digital interfaces and automated pressure application systems, whereas others might use manual methods or analogue gauges. The choice between these types depends on the specific needs, such as the volume of testing required, the level of precision needed, and the preference for digital versus analogue readouts.
