[MW:3532] RE: 3531] Valve in hydrotest, is is allowed?

Mr. Shashank,

It will depend of the client requirements, and rating of the valve under consideration.

If the client asks for it to be done, it can be done provided the valve rating permits.

It would further prove the leak tightness of the valve or the quality of valve along with the line.

I have witnessed such hydro test.

 

Regards

Rajneesh

Hi, Is it advisable to pressure test a water line for up to 10 bars with a valve already installed. (the valve will not be spaded during the test, it will only be in closed position)   Regards, Shashank Vagal
