BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE TASK
SET UP SAFE WORKING PROCEDURE FORHYDROTESTING.
Hydro static pressure testing of equipment/pipeline is commonand important maintenance activity in a continuous processindustry to check integrity (withstandibility of pressure), it is usedfor. Maintenance crew must be experienced and supervisorhandling the job should be well conversant with the details &
procedures. Since the failure during hydro testing can lead tohazardous situation as well revenue loss to the organization in theform of direct cost as well as in the form of opportunity cost,enough importance should be given to this maintenance activity.
SCOPE
This procedure explains general guidelines about hydro testingincluding safe practices. Hydro testing helps to identify leak
proofness and integrity of the pressure vessels, heat exchangersand piping including welding joints, as a quality assurancemeasure. Periodicity of testing shall be followed as per statutoryrequirements, equipment criticality and repair code. It isnecessary to have standard guideline in order to regulate thehydrotesting operations for achieving desired results, safety andreliability.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this procedure is to lay down the practices &procedures to be adopted for hydro testing.
APPLICABLE CODES
ASME Sec VIII Div.1: Design & Construction of PressureVessel (UG 99)
ASME B31.3: Process Piping Test Pressure Guideline: Annexure -1
Statutory Rules
POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
The water used for hydrotesting activity is not an environmentalhazard. However, Plant level procedure for the safe disposal ofcontaminated water due to drain or spill after hydrotesting needs
to be followed.

1. The standard engineering practice as described in thisprocedure shall be exercised.
2. Flange joints shall be checked after water filling and recifiedas required prior to pressurizing for hydro testing.
3. The specification of gaskets, bolts, flanges & flexible hosesshall be maintained as per engineering/piping spec.
4. Any deviations in working conditions shall be analysed withrespect to suitability of pressure gauges. Only calibrated
pressure gauges to be used for hydor testing.5. Do not leave pressurized equipment unattended, especially in
summer.
POTENTIAL SAFETY/OCCUPATIONALHEALTH ISSUES
Section No. : HZMM 2.303 Rev. : 00 Date: 01.11.2009
Hydro testing is skilled job. Extreme safety precaution needs to be exercised duringpreparation stage, selection of flexible high-pressure hoses, bolts, gaskets, pressuregauges etc. Following safety precautions will help in preventing the accidents:
Work Safety Rules:
1. Proper PPEs required to be used wherever needed in plant areas.2. Hydrotesting work area to be barricaded before starting the job. Entry in barricaded
area to be restricted for unauthorized persons.3. Use of experienced riggers for handling of heavy items. New employees of
contractors should undergo safety induction training program conducted by safetydepartment.
4. Works permit and risk assessment instructions to be followed strictly.5. Use of certified pressure gauges and tools shall be in good working condition and
shall be inspected before use.6. Blinding flanges, gaskets, flexible hose and bolts to be used as per specification
rating.
7. Connecting pressure hoses shall be in good working condition without any visiblephysical damage.
8. Spillage and overflow of water to be avoided or passage to be provided by usinghose pipe etc. to prevent possible slippage during movement. Proper care to betaken to avoid over flow/drain water ingress in the insulation of adjascentequipment/piping.
9. All the electrical items shall be inspected and certified by electrical engineer beforeuse.
10. The studs/bolts which are tightened shall be free from burres, dents etc. The nutshall rotate freely on the studs and the threads shall be lubricated. This will preventany jerks due to jamming of damaged threads.
11. Do not leave pressurized equipment unattended, especially in summer.

Documents and Drawings:
Refer following documents relevant for carrying out the job:1. Equipment drawing. Piping P&ID and Isometric drawing.2. Guide line for hydro test pressure for static equipment
(Refer Annexure-I)3. Pressure Test Certificate: CESH / I&C /3909 (Refer
Annexure-II).4. Hydrotest details: SAP-CIMS Report.
SPARES & CONSUMABLES
1. Water (DM water to be used for SS material Chloride
>30ppm)2. Gaskets, studs/bolts with nut as per required sizes and
specification rating.3. Anti seize & anti rust spray.
Prerequisites
1. The technician allotted for the job shall be well versedwith hydro testing procedures, basics of flange jointing,gaskets, fastneres etc.
2. He shall be able to read the drawing & understand the
details mentioned.3. He shall have thorough understanding of risk assessement
and hazards associated with the job.
PROCEDURE:
This procedure covers the minimum requirements for the pressuretesting of equipment / piping during routine maintenanceactivities.
1. The working personnel shall be experienced (aware of "dos &
donts while executing the job).

Water used for hydro testing required to be drained in propermanner to avoid spillage and water ingress in the insulationof adjascent equipmen/piping.
Initially, water to be drained from the top most located ventusing flexible hose till depressurizing of the vessel. Drainingto be done in slow manner.
Bottom/side nozzle to be used for draining after de-pressurizing of equipment/piping. Top vent to be kept openfor air entry.
Water to be drained in water trench only.
De-blinding of nozzle/piping flanges:
Flange joints blinded for hydrotesting purpose to benormalized using gaskets and bolts as per specification.
Check flange-gasket faces for corrosion damage, mechanicaldents and squareness prior to box-up.
Proper size bolts to be used. Short/long bolting must beavoided.
