Hydrostatic testing is a crucial process to ensure the integrity and safety of fuel hoses and water hoses. At Aqmond Global Investment Limited, we provide comprehensive hydro testing services to verify the durability and reliability of these hoses under pressure.
How Hydro Testing is Done
- Preparation:
- Visual Inspection: Before testing, we conduct a thorough visual inspection of the hoses to check for any visible defects such as cracks, blisters, or kinks. This step ensures that the hoses are in good condition for testing.
- Cleaning: The hoses are cleaned to remove any debris or contaminants that could affect the test results.
- Filling and Pressurization:
- Filling with Water: The hoses are filled with water, which is the standard test medium for hydrostatic testing. Water is used because it is incompressible and safe to work with.
- Pressurization: The hoses are then pressurized to a level that exceeds their normal operating pressure, typically 150% of the recommended working pressure. This helps to identify any weaknesses or potential failure points.
- Monitoring and Inspection:
- Pressure Monitoring: The pressure is maintained for a specified period, usually one minute, while the hoses are monitored for any signs of leaks or pressure drops. This step ensures that the hoses can withstand the required pressure without failure.
- Leak Detection: We carefully inspect the hoses for any leaks, which would indicate a failure in the hose material or connections.
- Post-Test Procedures:
- Depressurization and Draining: After the test, the hoses are slowly depressurized and drained of water. This step is done carefully to prevent any sudden pressure changes that could damage the hoses.
- Drying and Flushing: The hoses are dried and, if necessary, flushed with alcohol to remove any residual water, especially if the hoses are used for fuel.
