Online Pressure Safety Valve Testing - No loss of production, better cost savings.

Pressure safety valves installed on industrial plant protect life of employees and avoid damages on equipment in case of excessive pressure. A periodic calibration is one of the most important requirements to ensure that the safety valves will provide this critical protection.

In-situ Testing

Our expert team is specialised in maintenance interventions as well as in-situ testings. The work consists of testing the pressure relief valve on the full operating conditions to confirm setting pressure.

Equipped with the PreVenTest machine, our team is able to test your pressure safety valves on site without interrupting the process condition. With the so called “hot testing’ the safety valve stays online and no dismantling of the valve r plant shut-down is required.

Features:

Hot testing for plant under operation & Cold testing for commissioning.

Cover wide range of industries application – Power, Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Chemistry, Polymers, Food & Beverage applicable to all types of fluid (steam, water, oil, etc.).
Software includes technical information necessary for calibration – Calibration for a wide range of brands, types and sizes such as Sarazin/RSDB, Leser, Dresser.
Online relief valve tester with computer controlled pulling force – Allow fast, safe and efficient automatic testing.
Operated in accordance with strict control procedures centered on ISO 9001 – Equipment Certified Lloyd’s.
Measure pressure and performance of safety valve – Expert trained and qualified.
ldentify PSV’s in need of repair without plant shut-down –Only valves requiring overhauls are removed from the line.

Test and calibration report immediately issued:

Accurate set pressure 3 times in a row and performance of the safety valve

Customer benefits

No plant shut-down
No dismantling of the valve
No loss of productivity
Important cost savings
