Pressure Testing (Pneumatic/Hydrostatic)
Pneumatic testing uses compressed air or gas to pressurize the system and detect leaks and weaknesses under elevated pressure conditions. Hydrostatic testing involves filling the system with water or another liquid and pressurizing it to evaluate its structural integrity and identify leaks.
Both methods are essential for verifying the safety and reliability of the system. Each provides valuable insights into the system’s capacity to handle operational stresses, ensuring its readiness for service.
