A test rig of pipework of a size appro priate for the landing valve under test and having the following features shal! be used {a} pressure measuring devices, sccurate to + 0.05 bar, fitted close to the inlet and outlet of the valve; {0} two control valves fitted upstream and downstream Of the pressure measuring device {c} a means of supplying water at both # suitable pressure and 8.5 Ls; (a) a means of measuring the water flow rate through the rg, accurate 10 # 0.5 Us. A22 Procedure Mount the landing valve in the test rig fully opened. With water flowing through the rig adjust the control valves to give a flow rate of B.6 L/s and an inlet pressure at the landing valve of 4.7 bar, I necessary, euccessively adjust ‘the two control valves: opening the upstream vaive will increase pressure and flow while opening the downstream valve will decrease pressure and increase flow. Measure and record the outlet pressure, A3 Flow and pressure control ( pressure vaives only) (see 22.2) ABA Apparatus. A test rig in accordance with A.2.1 shall bbe used except that the water supply shall be at 20 bar and B.S Lis, A3.2 Procedure Carry out the testas follows, {a} Mount the landing valve in the test cig fully opened, {o) With water flowing through the rig and ot an inlet pressure of approximately 7.5 bar, adjust the controt valves to give a flow rate of 8,6 + 0.5 L/s. Measure and record the water flow rate and jnlet and outlet pressures. {c] Open the upstream control valve to increase the inlet pressure to approximately 12.5 bar, Do not adjust the downstream control valve unless the outlet pressure ‘outside the limits of 4.6 + 0.5 bar AND the flow cate is outside the limits 8.5 £ 0.5 Ls, In thot case adjust only the downstream valve and by sinall increments only ‘until the flow rate of pressure falls within the limits. ‘Measure and record the flow rate and pressures. (4) Repeat [e) at inlet pressures of approximately 17.5 bar and 208 , bar. (0) Close the upstream contro! valve to give an inlet pressure of approximately 18 bar. Adjust the down ‘steam control valve only if necessary, as above. Measure and record the flow rate and inlet pressures.i BS 5041 : Part 1: 1987 Appendices A and B {#) Repost (0) at an’inlet pressure of 10 bar and at as low an inlet pressure as is possible without the outlet pressure dropping below 4.0 bar.

Since valves with » pressure regulating device do not release "water to relieve the pressure, a means of rolieving excessive inlet pressure should be fitted when testing this type. For tusting high pressure valves fitted with a prassure relief valve, provision shall be made for disposal of the water lich will be released through the relief valve. A.4.2 Procedute for verification of compliance with 23.1 ‘Mount the landing valve in the test rig fully opened. With water flowing through the rig, adjust the control valves to give a flow rate of 8.5 L/s at an inlet pressure of 20 bar. Close the downstream control valve slowly. Observe and record whether the outlet pressure remains below 7 bar until iti fully closed.
