January 05, 2009 - Qualitest presents the HPT series of Hydrostatic Pressure Testers. This new innovative Hydrostatic pressure tester features 3-20 individually controlled test stations, a fast processor and corresponding software that supports the automatic adjustment of the pressure for each individual test sample. The test parameters are set using a touch screen monitor, where the operator also can follow the actual test status.
The HPT series of Hydrostatic Pressure Testers are mainly used to determine time-to-failure of plastic pipe under constant internal pressure according to ISO 1167, ASTM D 1598. The HPT Series is available with three to ten test stations. Each test station operates fully independently and can be controlled to accommodate specific test requirements.
The HPT series can also be used for Burst testing, to determine the resistance of either thermoplastic or reinforced thermosetting resin pipe, tubing, or fittings to hydrostatic pressure in a short time period, according to procedure A and B of ASTM D1599.
This new line of HPT testers features a pressure range between 0-16Mpa, that can be controlled with an accuracy of +2% -1%, the pressure is displayed with an accuracy of 0.001Mpa and the maximum testing time is 10000 hours.
The HPT Series of Hydrostatic Pressure Testers are available complete with test tank and end closures. To find out how the HPT series will solve your plastic pipe testing needs please visit www.WorldofTest.com/hydrostaticpressuretesting.htm or call us toll free at 1.877.884.TEST (8378).
