Indepth Water Management are experts in Hydrostatic Water Pressure Testing in Ireland. We carry out this test in the commission and maintenance of water mains for customers nationwide.
How Water Pressure Testing Works
We complete pressurisation using a variety of Hydrostatic Test Pumps. These are sized specifically for the type and size of pipe to be tested. All pumps are pressure variable and fitted with pressure relief valves and set to the required test pressure on site.
We test all “Creep Reactive” pipe materials such as HDPE, MDPE using pressure data loggers. Then our technicians download and interpret the logger results carried out on site on laptop computers. This happens immediately after the test procedure has been completed.
We analyse test results using our WRC approved test programme and issue test certificates.
We test solid pipe materials such as Ductile Iron or PVC using the water loss procedure and the standard certified test gauge and manifold.
Chlorination
Chlorinated water shall be injected into the Water Main for a minimum contact period of 24 hours for checking of residual chlorine. At the end of the contact period, water shall be sampled. These samples shall be tested using a chlorine test kit. The test results, sample locations, date and time shall be recorded along with the free chlorine levels.
Test results will be analysed and a certificate issued following successful disinfection.
