-
Non-destructive testing was also carried out: X-ray and ultrasonic inspection of
the meter housing for defective points in material, surface crack testing with mag-
netic powder and a color penetration process
-
Strength tests for components were conducted at 1.5 times the nominal pressure
for the pressure testing; the leak testing for the assembly was conducted at 1.1.
times the nominal pressure. Certificates were issued for successfully passed tests
-
The maximum operating pressure and the permissible temperature range are
specified on the type plate of the device. Operation of the device is only permitted
within these specified ranges.
- A maximal temperature difference of ΔT ≤ 100°K between the inside and outside
of the TME400 must be respected.
- Additional external forces and torques were not taken into account in the pressure
dimensioning.
- In the event that the pressure equipment is to be marketed and put into operation
as an assembly within the meaning of the Pressure Equipment-Directive, an ex-
amination of the assembly must be provided at the latest during the final and
pressure tests.
Otherwise, the commissioning inspector must explicitly point out that a test of the
equipment location with safety function still has to be performed at the installation
site.
