Abstract: An apparatus for valve-seat inspection and pressure-resistance inspection for valves which can successively perform a valve-seat inspection and a pressure-resistance inspection on a valve and can quickly and correctly inspect valves, by highly-accurately detecting a leak of search gas in a substantially fixed time; a method for these inspections; and a valve. The apparatus allows a valve-seat leak and pressure-resistance inspection of a test valve, includes a clamp mounting mechanism that fixes the test valve in an inspection chamber, an inspection space adjustment mechanism that adjusts a volumetric capacity of an inspection space S of the chamber, and a gas sensor for valve-seat inspection arranged in a flow path of the test valve and a gas sensor provided in the chamber for a pressure-resistance inspection of the valve, in which the volumetric capacity of the inspection space S of the chamber is adjusted to be substantially fixed.

Abstract: Provided are a pressure-resistance inspection apparatus for valves and its inspection method, and hydrogen gas detection unit capable of detecting external leakage and specifying its position of occurrence even for valves with different sizes and shapes by performing pressure-resistance inspection with a simple structure quickly with high accuracy while preventing errors in test results, without requiring post-treatment for the valves, and also capable of mass processing by automation. Provided are a cover 2 in which a test valve 1 is accommodated in a state of being isolated from outside and a sensor 22 inside this cover 2 and capable of moving to a position close to an outer surface of the test valve 1 filled with a search gas. This sensor 22 is a gas sensor capable of detecting external leakage of the search gas from the test valve 1.
