- 10. 4.3 Pressure Relief Valve & Pressure GaugeTesting The safety valve shall be visually inspected for possible defects. If any defects/concerns, NDE shall be performed according too applicable PRT. If heavy corrosion is observed, ultrasonic testing shall be performed according to the applicable PRT. The safety valve shall be installed in the test bench and its opening pressure checked. Based on the result of the first test of opening pressure, the schedule for testing or each safety valve should be evaluated if the opening pressure is: In excess of nominal +/- 1 bar for valves with pressure setting below 25 bar or in excess of nominal +/- 5% for valves above 25 bar. The safety valve shall be dismantled and inspected internally. The valve shall be adjusted to the correct opening pressure and then tested for leakage (bubble test). Leakage test: Fill up discharge side with water and observe the number of bubbles/minute at 3% below opening pressure. (API-527). After adjustment and/or repair the safety valve shall be sealed and marked with SFI number. Test certificate shall be completed and filed. The safety valve shall be sealed with sealing wire and a metal seal. After certification of the valve in question, the master data for Certification and next Certification shall be updated in the Preventative Maintenance System. 4.4 Ex Inspections Atec Verification offers a wide range of Rope Access electrical services.
