Abstract
A system may detect defects in a membrane cell or portion thereof by detecting gas transfer across the defect. Gas may be released in a release region of a chamber. The release region may be separated from a detection region of the chamber by the membrane cell or portion thereof. When gas traverses the product from the release region to the detection region, the system may determine that the membrane cell or portion thereof has a defect.
