I have done 2 tests with an ELSA/EEBD using a styrofoam dummy head (with partial/very slight shoulders).
During both times I was quite surprised at how much it inflated(25lpm N2).
The EEBD was quite firm almost like (but not fully? I'm uncertain how to describe it) like a baloon.
It wasn't wrinkled or collapsed in anyway ,in any part of it.
Is this normal behaviour?, obviously I don't have any experience with these so I want to make sure.
Also,I could hear the venting from the exhale valve(I'm guessing this is correct behaviour).
A while back I tested a different ELSA I purchased late last year.
I don't remember this one inflating quite so much.
I did leak tests on connected equipment on both.
