Carbonated PET Bottle Burst Pressure Tester

Hydraulic pressure tester that fills PET bottles with water and raises pressure until burst or yield, recording the peak pressure. Used by carbonated soft drink bottlers to verify bottle pressure resistance and base design.

Specification

The bottle neck is sealed in a clamp fixture and filled with water, then pressurised by a pump at a controlled rate. Pressure at burst and volume expansion are recorded to detect weak spots. The enclosed chamber contains fragments for operator safety.

Features

• Pressure range up to 25 bar with digital readout
• Constant rate pressurisation 0.1 to 1 bar/s
• Transparent safety shield with interlock
• Neck sealing fixtures for 28 and 38 mm finishes
• Peak hold and PC data logging
