1.1 The water used for the pressure test shall be clean domestic water ,for containers with complex structures or distillation towers, plate fin heat exchangers, condensing evaporators, adsorbers, filters, etc., which should not be used as a medium, the air pressure test is available.

1.2 Gas tightness test for dry oil-free clean air or nitrogen.

Test pressure categories: strength air pressure test, test water pressure test, gas tightness test

Pressure vessel

3.1 Level pressure gauge test nitrogen seal pressure.

3.2 multi-channel vessel test sealing nitrogen in doubt or no sealing nitrogen must be pressure test to verify whether there is internal leakage.

3.3 Oxygen is strictly forbidden to be used as test pressure gas

Valve

4.1 Where the need for on-site degreasing, disassembly and inspection of the valve before installation shall be a separate gas tightness test.

4.2 The safety is only tested by jumping. After reaching the requirements can be sealed, where the safety valve before the shut-off valve ,the valve must be kept fully open and sealed.

4.3 Pneumatic film control valves need to make the following checks before installation: leakage check, positioner action test,packing letter, flange sealing surface for leakage inspection.

Dear Air Separation manufactures small air separation unit that meets customer requirements and is pressure tested and gas tight tested.

When the amount of processing air is reduced, the rising steam and reflux liquid in the upper column will be reduced, but the reflux ratio will not change. Therefore, the reduction of processing air in a small range will not affect the purity of oxygen and nitrogen, and the reduction of processing air volume will help to reduce the pressure of the upper and lower columns. However, according to the material balance, the production of oxygen and nitrogen will naturally decrease when the amount of processing air is reduced. If the amount of processing air is too small, there will be leakage on the tray. If the heat and mass exchange of the leaked liquid is not sufficient, the purity of oxygen and nitrogen will be greatly affected, and even the normal production can not be realized. Therefore, the minimum allowable load of distillation column is generally specified.
