Safe and reliable valve test bench solutions
If you’re after a complete solution for quick, easy and accurate testing and pressure setting for any type of pressure relief valves, look no further than Blue Rock – the trusted and exclusive supplier of Hydratron valve test systems in Perth.
Covering a wide range of valve sizes and types, our test systems are highly engineered to support the needs of both valve manufacturing businesses and service/ repair and offshore requirements. Available in a number of standard models, each design and configuration is based on many years of experience in safety valve testing and repair and specified to customers testing requirements.
Key features
Safety is our main feature– Our test benches are the safest on the market with a hydraulic safety lock. Our locking system won’t put pressure to the valve unless the hydraulic clamp has the correct force in place.
Increase efficiency, reduce operation downtime and save money with our range of valve test benches, suitable for all your valve testing requirements.
Our relief valve test rigs are commonly available in a desktop type unit for small valve testing and in both horizontal and vertical configurations. They can be supplied with hydraulic or manual clamping mechanisms to suit any flange design, as well as with adapters for threaded or other connections.
Moreover, our valve test benches come with varying levels of automation and data acquisition, including touchscreen operation and wireless connectivity.
Optional Extras
A wide range of optional extras are also available, such as containerising for portability, providing absolute bespoke solutions for your specific needs.
Standard test bench features include:
- Hydraulic test system, with AZ-1 series air operated hydraulic pump, accumulator isolation valve, pressure release valve and safety relief valves.
- Nitrogen/air test system, with GB’S series air operated gas booster pump, inlet gas bulkhead connector threaded 1/4” NPT female, gas stop valve and gas filter.
- Hydraulic clamping system comprising four finger type, fully adjustable clamps, capable of a combined clamping force of 75 tonnes.
- An interlocking system, preventing pressure from being introduced into the valve under test until the valve is securely clamped in place.
- Additional controls including nitrogen or air/water selector, high pressure fine metering valve and test gauge bulkhead fitting threaded 1/2” BSP female.
