Required Testing
Test Name | Description | Purpose |
---|---|---|
Hydrostatic Test | Pressurizing shell and tube sides with water to test for leaks or structural failures. | Ensures the heat exchanger can handle operating pressures. |
Pneumatic Test | Pressurizing with air or inert gas to check for leaks in a dry environment. | Ensures safety in systems where water-based testing is not suitable. |
Radiographic Testing (RT) | X-ray inspection of welds to detect internal defects. | Ensures weld quality and structural integrity. |
Ultrasonic Testing (UT) | Uses high-frequency sound waves to detect material defects or thickness variations. | Ensures tube and shell material meet thickness and quality standards. |
Dye Penetrant Test (PT) | Applies dye to detect surface cracks or defects in welds and other components. | Verifies the surface integrity of critical components. |
Material Composition Test | Spectrometric analysis to verify the chemical composition of 316L stainless steel components. | Ensures compliance with material standards and corrosion resistance requirements. |
Hardness Testing | Measures the hardness of 316L material to confirm mechanical properties. | Ensures the material is suitable for pressure and temperature conditions. |
Leak Test | Testing with helium or nitrogen to detect micro-leaks in the system. | Ensures complete sealing for high-performance applications. |
