HYDROSTATIC TESTING

Simply put, Hydrostatic Testing involves filling a hose assembly with water and taking it to a pre-specified test pressure, generally 1.5 times the maximum working pressure and holding it for a set period of time.  Whilst under pressure the hose is monitored and inspected to ensure that the pressure is held, and its integrity is maintained.

Why Test Flexible Hose Assemblies?

Leaking hose assemblies are a risk to personal health and safety and there are many environmental issues associated with unwanted emissions. They can also be very costly in the form of lost production due to unforeseen outages.

Industrial’s philosophy of preventative testing virtually eliminates any unpleasant surprises and allows Customers to carefully manage planned maintenance thereby maximizing the up time of their production process.
