Multi-Station Hydrostatic Pressure Tester for Plastic Pipes

Test bench that holds pipes at constant internal water pressure and temperature for long durations to find hydrostatic strength. Used by PVC, HDPE and PPR pipe manufacturers for type and batch testing.

Specification

Pipe specimens with end caps are held at controlled hoop stress in a water bath and monitored until failure or for the specified time. Each station has independent pressure control, so different pipe sizes can be tested together. The test is the basic proof of long-term pipe strength and joint integrity.

Features

• 6 independent stations
• Pressure range 0 - 40 bar
• Water bath up to 95 deg C
• Automatic failure detection and timer
• Stainless steel end caps for 20 - 160 mm pipes
