Determination of test operation pressure for mixing equipment
Thread Content
There is a mixing device with a design pressure of 0.3 MPa. The user requests that the device be tested under operation using water as the medium at a pressure of 0.3 MPa for 4 hours. Is this appropriate? I believe that the test operation pressure should be slightly less than 0.3 MPa; I would appreciate some advice from those with more experience!
Normal trial operation should generally be carried out at the rated operating pressure. However, 0.3 MPa is not a high pressure anyway; since the owner has made this requirement, the single-unit trial operation can be conducted in this manner – no problems will arise as a result.
Thank you, it shouldn’t be a problem, but I just feel it’s not quite right.
Yes, using water as a substitute reduces the risk; this pressure can be tried out, and the design has sufficient margin
