The drinking water system was inspected as a an overall system or a in sections

All pipelines are closed with metal stoppers, caps or blanks or blind flanges.
Devices, pressure tanks or drinking water heaters must be disconnected from the pipes.
A visual inspection of all pipe connections for correct execution was carried out.

Leak test – preliminary test

Test pressure 150 mbar
Test time up to 100 litres pipeline volume at least 120 min.
The test time should be increased by 20 minutes for every additional 100 litres

Pipe volume litres Test time minutes

The temperature and steady-state condition is waited for; then the test time starts

a During the test time no fall in pressure was observed

Strength test with increased pressure – main test

Test pressure for drinking water pipeline with max. 3.0 bar at d ≤ 54 mm
Test pressure for drinking water pipeline with max. 1.0 bar at d > 54 mm
Test time at least 10 minutes

a During the test time no fall in pressure was observed

a The pipeline system is leak-proof
