Re: [MW:7422] Dial indicating pressure gages - Range for hydro testing

Dear Limesh,
It is 200 bar/ 0.3 to 200 bar /0.8, shall be the range of the gauge used.
Thanks,
K.Rajagopal

Dear All,
 
ARAMCO specifies

"The gauges must have a range such that the pressure specified for the test is between 30% and 80% of the full range".

 
Could you please explain the meaning of the sentence.I couldn't understand the meaning as it slightly weird.If I want to test a line with a test pressure of 200 Bar,what would be the range of pressure gauges as per Saudi Aramco standard?
 
 

 
Regards,
 
Limesh

Dial indicating pressure gages used in testing shall be graduated over a range of about double the intended maximum test pressure, but in no case shall the range be less than 11⁄2 nor more than 4 times that pressure. Digital reading pressure gages having a wider range of pressure may be used provided the readings give the same or greater degree of accuracy as obtained with dial pressure gages (UG102(b) for Sec VIII div 1 vessels).

 

And many of the company standards indicate this requirement, for e.g. ARAMCO specifies

"The gauges must have a range such that the pressure specified for the test is between 30% and 80% of the full range".

Dear All

 

Can you please confirm as to which standard / code call for a Pressure gauge rating to be 2 times the test pressure of the equipment .

 

The second question is what do you mean by  the term   Mil

 

Thanks and regards
