Test Tanks for Pipe Testing
IPT Institut für Prüftechnik Gerätebau GmbH & Co. KG
The internal pressure creep test is a test procedure for determining the strength of thermoplastic pipes. The samples are subjected to a constant hydrostatic internal pressure at a constant ambient temperature either for a specified period or until they fail. The test duration is subject to the tension generated by the internal pressure and the temperature. The IPT test tanks are specially designed for testing thermoplastic pipes and fittings. The high reliability, durability of the materials used and the constant temperatures in the test tank with respect to both volume and time provide particularly reliable test conditions. The efficient use of energy with low servicing and maintenance costs guarantee efficient long-term operation. There are a wide range of tank dimensions and connection options, enabling the tanks to be flexibly adapted to various operating conditions.
