Patent

CA 2223247

The invention provides an assembly for hydrostatic testing of welds between components, such as but not limited to welds which connect components such as nozzles (2) or patches (40) to a pressure vessel (1). A sealing body (8) is secured against one of the components to define a sealed space (25) adjacent to the weld (5) to be tested. The body is secured by at least one tie rod (9), positioned to pull the body against the component by tightening of a nut (12). Pressure testing can then be carried out by introducing pressurized fluid into the sealed space and applying appropriate monitoring techniques to check for leakage.

L'invention concerne un système pour l'évaluation hydrostatique de soudures entre des composants, en particulier mais non uniquement, les soudures qui tiennent des composants tels que des buses (2) ou des pièces rapportées (40) sur un récipient pressurisé (1). Un corps d'étanchéité (8) est fixé contre un des composants pour définir un espace étanche (25) près de la soudure (5) à tester. Le corps est fixé par au moins une tige de raccordement (9) positionnée de manière à tirer le corps contre le composant par le serrage d'un écrou (12). L'essai sous pression peut alors se faire en introduisant un fluide sous pression dans l'espace fermé hermétiquement et en appliquant des techniques de vérification appropriées pour vérifier l'absence de fuites.
