Test rigs for pipes with clamping style Nr. 3 “Inner/outer seal” or “Proportional press”.
Reaction bridges are connected by sector columns that allow to set up maximum pipe length.
The left side reaction bridge is able to run on the entire columns length to cover a wide range of pipe length measures as described in the technical table below.
Pipe loading is performed by crane from the top, while Nr. 2 hydraulic “V” shape lifters will support it for entire test duration and are able to center the alignment on seals heads.
The basement includes a water vessel with an evaporation limit device.
The 45° columns orientation makes loading procedure easy requiring less lifting height to climb over the reaction column.
The test bench does not need any foundations preparation.
The rig is controlled by SKA class pressurization skid up to 2000 L/min water filling ability.
