A Mini-Guide to Industrial Pressure Testing
Any time you install new pipes, it is important to perform an industrial pressure test. If you aren’t sure what this is or who to call to help you complete the task, don’t worry. This mini-guide will provide the information you need to start your project.
The Purpose of Industrial Pressure Testing
Industrial pressure testing, which is sometimes referred to as hydrostatic testing, is necessary after you install a pipeline but before you begin to use it. The test allows you to know the pipe’s limits in terms of its maximum capacity, leaks, pressure gauges, reliability, and joint fittings. This way, you can be sure the pipeline meets all legal and safety requirements. (more…)
