What is Hydrostatic Testing?

GET IN TOUCH

At Fire Maintenance Services (NT) in Darwin, we take safety seriously, which is why we offer hydrostatic testing for cylinders that hold liquids under pressure such as fire extinguishers, gas bottles and scuba tanks. 

 

These cylinders are required to operate under pressure, so we test them regularly for leaks and for structural integrity. 

 

Hydrostatic testing may take the form of dyed water being added into the cylinder and put under pressurise at a higher level than normal to identify any leaks. Smaller cylinders are tested using a water jacket where changes in pressure can be monitored. 

 

Call us today on (08) 8988 4695 to quote on performing this important safety service. 

Why is Hydrostatic Testing Important?

ENQUIRE TODAY

Hydrostatic testing, also known as cylinder pressure testing, is vitally important for the protection of your staff. Faulty cylinders may explode under pressure while they are being used, which can result in serious injury or death. 

 

We recommend regular testing, according to the manufacturer and legislative requirements, for the safety of your personnel using the following equipment: 

 

  • Scuba tanks (every 12 months) 
  • Breathing apparatus (every 3-5 years) 
  • Fire extinguishers (every 5 years)
