Valve strength test

2020-02-17View Original

Thread Content

For the globe valve J41H-16C, the number 16 refers to the nominal pressure; does this represent the maximum allowable operating pressure? If a shell strength test is conducted, is the test pressure 1.5 times 1.6?

When selecting a valve, it should be able to handle this pressure. Valve pressure testing is primarily aimed at detecting leaks; there are differences between water pressure testing and air pressure testing, with water being the most commonly used medium for such testing. Choosing a valve with a higher nominal pressure results in a higher safety factor and better quality.

Yes, the hydraulic strength test pressure for the valve is 1.5 times 16
