MATERIAL TEST

– INSPCTION OF MATERIAL SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS

– THE MATERIAL OF WHICH QUALITY HAS BEEN ASCERTAINED MAY BE EXEMPTED FROM THE MATERIAL TEST

Page 4: Testing of valves.Maximum share.....!!

Visual InspectionCasting - Shall be free from blow holes, fins, sand

burning, sand holes, scale, cracks etc.Forging - Shall be free from Laps, setting down

flaws etc.Machining - Shall be free from harmful defects.surface Shall be uniformly finishedValve Seat - Valve seat face shall be free from blow holesFlow passage - Well finished and cleaned

Gland Leakage Test

This test shall be made consecutively with shell test or

hydraulic pressure test

Seat Leakage Test

ANSI B 16.104 - Control valves seat leakage

Class I : Modification of Class II, III or IV. No test is required

Class II : 1. Double seat control valves

2. Balanced single port with piston and metalto metal seats

Class III : 1. Class II with higher degree of seat and seal tightness

Class IV : 1. Unbalanced single port single seat

2. Balanced single port with extra tight piston rings or

other sealing means and metal to metal seats

Page 14: Testing of valves.Maximum share.....!!

Test Procedure for Class II, III and IV

Test Medium : Water

Test Temperature: Between 10oC and 52oC

Test Pressure : 3 - 4 bar or maximum operating p

whichever is less

Valve Position : Fully closed, outlet open to Atm. Pressure

applied at valve inlet

Leakage rate shall be within the following vales

Class II - 0.5% of rated capacity

Class III - 0.1% of rated capacity

Class IV - 0.01% of rated capacity

Flowrate Data - Accurate to +/- 10% of Reading

Page 15: Testing of valves.Maximum share.....!!

Seat Leakage Test for Class V Valves

Class V Valves : Metal seat, unbalanced single port, single seat or

balanced single port with exceptional seat and seal tightness

Test Procedure : Same as than for Class II, III and IV valves except

the following.

Test Pressure : Maximum service p not exceeding the maximum

operating pressure (“ 7 Bar” pressure drop

minimum”

Allowable Leakage Rate - 5 x 10-4 ml / min
