Pressure Testing

Pressure testing is carried out on cast or machined components using air under water or for greater pressures hydraulic testing facilities. Pressure testing replicates the components function out in the field, so if components need to be air or fluid tight pressure testing will show if there are any leaks. Pressure testing will also show how severe the leak and the location.

Air under water can be tested to 7 bar (100 psi). Water hydraulic testing we can test up to 300 bar (4000 psi). Space Seal can manufacture a pressure testing fixture or we can use a fixture supplied by the customer to test.

The benefits of Space Seal carrying out the pressure testing on components is our experienced staff can decide whether the components would require a single or double impregnation or if the components are rejects. The other benefits are that if the parts leak we can seal them without the added cost and time of delivering the parts to and from us.
