What does “inhibited” mean here?
Thread Content
Equipment and piping are hydrostatically tested as required by local code and by the licensee, then drained as completely as practicable. Test water should be inhibited.
Both the equipment and pipelines are subject to hydraulic testing in accordance with local codes and the requirements of the licensee, after which they are deemed fully satisfactory. The water used for testing should be suppressed.
It probably means to drain all the water used for experiments, so that there are no residues left
The test water should be inhibited. The water used for testing should be water treated with a corrosion inhibitor. This is to prevent the test water from causing corrosion in the pipelines; therefore, it is recommended to use water that has been treated with a corrosion inhibitor, just like the water used in heating system radiators, which usually contains such inhibitors
I see, thank you~~~:lol
