6. SOURCES OF MATERIAL:
7. WORK PROCEDURE
Sensitive instrument (Flow Meter, Control Valve etc.) must be taken out from system
and put short piece of pipe for test.
All openings shall be tightly closed and an air release valve shall be installed at the
highest portion of the pipe section to be test.
A water inlet with pressure gauge and isolation valve shall be provided at highest
location of the pipe section to be tested. Pressure test Spec. is following. And Sub-
contractor should submit Gauge technical Data and Calibration Certificate before Sub-
contractor carried out such a test. And pressure gauge range is 1.5 to 3 times of Test
Pressure.
Pressure Gauge Spec: Equivalent JIS 1st Grade (Gauge D= above 150mm)

Pressure gauge
A water pump connected to a clean water source and capable of attaining the required
test pressure shall be connected to the water inlet to gradually fill the pipe section with
water until the pressure reading at the pressure gauge shall be more than or equal to the
required test pressure. The air release valve shall be opened this time to ensure that no
air was present inside the pipes.
Turn off the pump or compressor and close the isolation valve of the water inlet. Record
the time and pressure reading after taking aging. The hydrostatic test shall then be
officially started. The test pressure must hold above 60 minutes for water test without
leakage. During the required duration of the test, the pipe sections shall be visually
checked for leakage.

After test time duration, the pipe sections under test shall be considered ‘PASSED’ if
the pressure had been maintained for the entire duration and no leakage have been found
on all joints. Otherwise, if leak has been found, that portion shall be repaired and the
above procedure shall be repeated for the entire section.
In case of Water Test Line, Instrument and separation blind flange location leak check
will be done after start to discharge actual Fluid to new line.
8. SAFETY MEASURE
All workers shall wear suitable working clothes, P.P.E (safety helmet, shoes and safety belt) at
the job site. Workers engaged in welding, cutting, beveling and other similar operation shall be
required to wear goggles or face masks or shields with filters of appropriate shade and gloves
when necessary.
9. DISPUTE
For the arising issues not specified in this document, instruction at the construction site shall
be prior, and it will be decided after the discussion between MHPT and subcontractor.
