When it comes to safety and reliability in high-pressure fluid systems, one term that stands out across industries like oil and gas, construction, and manufacturing is hydrostatic pressure testing . This critical method plays a key role in verifying the strength, integrity, and leak-proof performance of pressure vessels, pipelines, valves, and other fluid-carrying components before they are commissioned or after maintenance. What Is Hydrostatic Pressure Testing? Hydrostatic pressure testing, often referred to simply as hydro testing, is a process used to check the strength and leak resistance of pressurized systems. In this test, the equipment—be it a pipeline, hose, or cylinder—is filled with water or another incompressible fluid. The system is then pressurized to a level higher than its standard operating pressure, often as much as 1.5 times the maximum working pressure, and monitored for any drop in pressure, fluid loss, or visible leakage. This test ensures that the equipment...
