Introducing Our New Pressure Testing Service for Valves

Ensuring Quality, Reliability, and Performance in Every Valve

Introduction

We are proud to announce a significant upgrade to our capabilities with the addition of a state-of-the-art pressure testing machine. This investment allows us to rigorously test valves, actuators, and associated components, ensuring they meet the highest industry standards for safety, reliability, and performance.

Not only does this enhance the quality assurance of our own products, but we are now offering a dedicated pressure testing service. This means that you can supply your own valves, and we will conduct comprehensive pressure tests to verify their integrity before they are put into service.

Whether you require pre-installation validation, compliance testing, or peace of mind regarding operational safety, our pressure testing service delivers accurate results with detailed certification.


What is Pressure Testing?

Pressure testing is a critical quality control process used to assess the structural integrity and leak resistance of valves under controlled conditions. It involves subjecting a valve to specific pressure levels to confirm that it can withstand real-world operating conditions without failure.

Common types of pressure tests include:

  • Hydrostatic Testing – Using water to apply pressure and check for leaks or structural weaknesses.
  • Pneumatic Testing – Using compressed air or gas to evaluate performance under operating conditions.
  • Functional Testing – Assessing valve operation and sealing performance at various pressure levels.

These tests ensure that a valve performs as intended, meets industry specifications, and provides long-term reliability.


Why Pressure Testing is Essential

Valves play a critical role in controlling the flow of liquids and gases in industrial, commercial, and process applications. A faulty or underperforming valve can lead to leaks, system failures, safety hasards, and costly downtime.

Our pressure testing service helps to:

Ensure compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.
Identify potential leaks or weaknesses before installation.
Guarantee long-term performance and durability.
Reduce the risk of system failure and unexpected downtime.
Provide documented certification for quality assurance.

By thoroughly testing valves before they are put into service, we help businesses avoid costly repairs and replacements, ensuring efficiency and reliability in their operations.


Our New Pressure Testing Service – How It Works

We now offer a fully equipped pressure testing facility, allowing us to test both our own products and those supplied by customers. If you need third-party verification or independent testing, our process is simple and efficient:

Step 1: Supply Your Valve for Testing

Ship or deliver your valve to our facility, where it will be prepared for testing in a controlled environment.

Step 2: Comprehensive Pressure Testing

Our team will conduct the necessary tests, including leak detection, pressure integrity verification, and functional assessment.

Step 3: Receive Your Test Results and Certification

Once testing is complete, we provide a detailed report with performance data, compliance verification, and certification, ensuring your valve meets required specifications.
