In-house Valve Testing
We have our own in-house testing department at BSM Valves to ensure we meet the high standards our customers demand. Every single product we manufacture or supply undergoes extensive testing before being dispatched for delivery.TEST DEPARTMENT
BSM Valves are able to do all valve testing in house. Due to the rapid growth of turn over by BSM Valves the need to be able to test in house and so greatly reduce turnaround on testing became apparent which lead to the development of the BSM Valves test department. Having an in house testing department also gives us the opportunity to speed up our R&D efforts and is such used as a very effective engineering tool.
To guarantee effectiveness BSM Valves has attracted, assembled and developed the following:
Trained and experienced staff - Internal training and education program. This is also available for other companies or third parties. - State of the art equipment for helium sniffing - High pressure testing equipment, including a safety bunker
General safety procedures include constant air sampling and alarming when oxygen levels drop below a safe level, as is mentioned in Dutch labor laws
BSM Valves, through the years, has gathered experience with API, BS, ASME, ISO (5208, 15848-1 and 2), Shell SPE, TA Luft, customer or project specific specifications and many more….
BSM Valves are able to assist in developing test specifications for specific jobs and specific projects.
Focal points in the BSM Valves test array are:
Cryogenic testing - Helium sniffer testing - High pressure gas testing - Mechanical Endurance testing
Besides physical valve tests BSM Valves can also perform:
PMI (Positive Material Identification) - LDE (Liquid Dye-penetrant Examination) - MPE (Magnetic Particle Examination) - Hardness measurement (Portable) - Surface Roughness measurements - Coating thickness measurements
