What constitutes a Class 1 leak?

A Class 1 leak is defined as a situation where moisture is present but there are no visible drops of liquid. This means that while there may be some evidence of liquid, it is not enough to form drops that can be seen falling or accumulating. Essentially, this classification indicates a minor leak, one that may not pose an immediate risk but still needs to be monitored.

In contrast, the other classifications involve more significant amounts of liquid. Continuous flow of liquid would indicate a more serious leakage condition, while visible drops and liquid pooling suggest that the leak is considerable enough to warrant immediate attention to prevent further issues. By understanding the characteristics of a Class 1 leak, personnel can prioritize maintenance efforts and ensure that they monitor for any changes that might indicate an escalating problem.
