ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Reinforcing Pads or Sleeves (NOTE: A separate test is not required if the reinforcing pads or sleeves are installed before pressure testing of the piping. Test is required for pads or sleeves installed in hot tap installation.) Re-inforcing pads that will require pneumatic test are provided with at least a 1/4" tapped vent hole. A pneumatic test of 173 kPa (ga) (25 psi) shall be applied to the reinforcing pad or ring after installation. The test pressure is then be reduced to 21 - 35 kPa (ga) (3 - 5 psi) for a tightness test using a soap solution. Weld-Plus-Plus Ends Coupling (SAEP-310)

All of the thrust screw ends are welded over. Apply a pneumatic test at 5 to 10 psig at each end of the coupling through the top clamping screw holes, apply soap solution over all the welds and check for leaks. (NOTE: Test Relief valve is not requirede for this test per G.I.-2.102, Para. 5.5 ) Inspection for leaks All joints including welded shall be left exposed for visual leak detection during the strength test. Visual examination is done with sufficient safe access such that the component to be inspected is in close proximity to the eye(24"). (ASME Sec V, Article 10, Para. I-1075 & Article 9, Para. T-952) The joint/area to be inspected is properly illuminated by natural or supplemental white light. (ASME Sec V, Article 10, Para. I-1075 & Article 9, Para. T-952) The bubble forming solution is compatible with the temperature of the test conditions. (NOTE: As a standard technique, the temperature of the surface of the part to be examined shall not be below 40F (4C) nor above 125F (52C) throughout the examination.) (ASME Sec V, Article 10, Para. I-1032 b & I-1072)

The bubble forming solution is applied to the surface to be tested by flowing, spraying, or brushing the solution over the examination area. (NOTE: The number of bubbles produced in the solution by application should be minimized to reduce the problem of masking bubbles caused by leakage. ) (ASME Sec V, Article 10, Para. I-1073)

SAES-A-004, Para. 6.3.2

C6

After application of bubble forming solution, there is no presence of continuous bubble growth on the surface of the material in the region under examination. (ASME Sec V, Article 10, Para. I-1076) Pressure gages showed no loss in pressure.
