C) Relief valve setting
D) Safety Instruction Sheet

• Hydrostatic testing for new vessels (field fabricated) shall be conducted

as per 32-SAMSS-004 and the original construction code.
Pneumatic test, when approved (refer to paragraph 5.4), shall be
conducted per UG-100 of ASME SEC VIII D1, or T-4 of ASME SEC VIII SAES-A-004,
A2 D2, whichever is applicable. Appendix F Item 3
• Pressure testing of small vessels shall be per the appropriate standard
as specified in 32-SAMSS-036.
• Hydrostatic testing for existing vessels shall be conducted per SAES-D-
008, Section 14.

A3 Procedure has been approved & meets the detailed requirements of GI 2.102 Para
SAIC-A-2001 (Review Procedure - Pressure Testing) 5.1.2

Verify drawing conformance of pressure vessel construction. Check all

32-SAMSS-004
nozzles, supports, attachments (orientation & dimension)
A4 Section 20
Systematically complete, verify & accept all drawings incl. details in
accordance with NMR-7919-1

A5 Verify complete code construction incl. support attachments. Repairs 32-SAMSS-004,

New & Pick-up (ID/OD) are accepted. ASME VIII, UG-99 (a) Section 16.1.1

If block valves are used for blocking or isolating hydro test sections, the
differential pressure across the valve seat shall not exceed the seat test SAES-L-150 Para
A6
pressure during the strength test and shall not exceed the rated seat 5.10
pressure during the tightness test.

The hydrotest pressure of all internally coated vessels, tanks or piping SAES-A-004,
shall be reviewed against the coating limitations as per SAES-H-001. On Appendix F Item
A7
completing the hydrostatic test, the pressure should be reduced gradually 17
to prevent decompression failure of the internal coating.

approved. Verify correct test pressure for system/equipment. Para. 4.2

Test Pressure at top of vessel is verified against the SIS and conforms
to the following ASME Section VIII code, as applicable:
Test pressure measured at the top of the vessel shall be:
16.3.11.1(a) For Division 1 vessels per UG-99(b):
PT=1.3 MAWP (S/ST)
16.3.11.1(b) For Division 2 vessels per 8.2.1:
SAES-A-004,
Greater of:
Appendix F &
i) PT = 1.43 MAWP
A11 32-
ii) PT = 1.25 MAWP (ST/ S)
SAMSS-004,
Where,
Section 16.3.11
PT is the minimum test pressure
S is the allowable stress at design temperature
ST is the allowable stress at test temperature
ST/S is the lowest ratio for the pressure boundary
materials, excluding bolting materials, of which
the vessel is constructed.
