fluid would overload the support. Retaining pins for spring supports shall be removed only after testing is
completed and test fluid is completely drained.
10) When testing any piping system, air of approximately 2 bars may be used as preliminary test to detect missing
gaskets etc. as this avoids the necessity of draining the line to make repairs.
11) All piping shall be adequately supported before the pressure test. Spring or other variable type Supports shall
be locked to prevent movement.
12) Piping containing check valves shall have the source of test pressure on the upstream side or removed
clappers.

be tested in the fully open position. But, all control valves shall be removed prior to testing. Care must be taken
not to damage valve soft seats.
14) Piping and equipment may be insulated before testing, but all circumferential welding joints shall be left UN
insulated until suitable test acceptance by Company.15) Hydro testing shall be performed via a manifold. The test pump shall be isolatable from the system with its
own pressure gauge. Valves, hoses used in tests shall be suitable rated (use rating of max. test on line list
throughout to avoid any confusion)
5.4 Test Fluid and Test Pressure

from the system as soon as test pressure is reached and stabilized in the system.
3) The pump shall be attended constantly during the test by an authorized person. The pump shall be isolated
from the system whenever the pump is to be left unattended.
4) Test pressure shall be maintained for a sufficient length of time to permit thorough inspection of all joints for
leakage or signs of failure. Any joint found leaking during a pressure test shall be retested to the specified
pressure after repair. The pressure shall be continuously maintained for a minimum time of 10 minutes.
5) The pump and the piping system to be tested are to be provided with separate pressure indicating test gauges.
These gauges are to be checked by the standard test gauge before each pressure test.
6) Care shall be taken to avoid increase in the pressure due to temperature variation during the test, if pressure
rise, some quantities should be drained to maintain the pressure level. .

6.1 The flushing shall be carried out after pressure testing. But in case water flushing shall be carried
out after pressure testing. Pipe work shall be free from dirt, grease or temporary protective
coatings, e.g. tape, at all joints including welded attachments.
6.2 The flushing shall be proceeded to expedite the progress even though the document review (like NDE review) was
not done. Any outstanding repairs will require re flushing, unless specifically approved otherwise.
6.3 All flushing activities must be witnessed by Companies Representative and Contractor QC inspector.
The Cleanliness of flushed pipe work must be to the satisfaction of Companies Representative.
6.4 Preparation and Procedure
1) Generally the flushing medium shall be plant water, raw water, steam or compressed air and
seawater for GRP/GRE lines. In cases where water flushing is not desirable in the piping system (e.g.
instrument air etc.), flushing by compressed air shall be carried out.
2) For air flushing, the pipe line/system will be pressurized by compressed air to the maximum
pressure of 50 psig or up to design pressure whichever is lower. The pressure shall then be released by
quick opening of a valve, already in line or installed temporarily for this purpose. This procedure shall be
repeated as required till the inside of the pipe is cleaned to the cleanliness levels of particular piping
system as indicated in Appendix 1 of this document. Caution: small bore pipe work which is safety
hazard shall require personnel barriers.
3) The cleaning fluid shall not flow through vessels, pumps and other rotating equipment whichare already cleaned and preserved by respective vendor. The pipe line shall be disconnected and blanked
off before flushing/blowing.
4) Pumps and other rotating equipment designed with tight clearances as well as some control
valves and in-line instruments like orifice plates, Rota meters, and safety valves etc. which may interfere
or be damaged by flushing (water, steam or compressed air) shall be removed, blocked off or isolated.
5) All in line valves such as Butterfly valve, Gate valve, Ball valve (equal or less than 4),
Globe valve and DBB valves shall be flushed in fully open position. But, other valves such as Control
valves, Flange type Check valves shall be removed or bypassed.
6) All instrument impulse pipe work shall be disconnected prior to flushing and shall remain
disconnected during pressure test.
7) All check valves larger than 2.5 shall be removed for duration of flushing.8) The screens/meshes shall be removed from all strainers before flushing. Screens/meshes
shall be reinstalled after flushing but before testing.
9) The contractor shall carry out all the activities required before, during and after the flushing
operation as per flushing requirements, such as removal of valves, special items, distance pieces, inline
instruments and any other piping part before flushing. The flanges shall be disengaged andprovided with
temporary gaskets at the time of flushing. Refer to P&IDs and piping isometric drawings.
10) After flushing is completed, the valve, distance pieces, piping specials etc. shall be
reinstalled by the contractor with permanent gaskets. However, flanges at equipment nozzles and other
places where isolation is required during testing, only temporary gaskets shall be provided. A proper
record by marking on the P&IDs and the isometric drawings shall be maintained.
11) The cleanliness shall be verified visually or if required by other appropriate method
specified
12) In case the piping system cannot be taken into commissioning directly after Pressure Testing

such as feed water, main stream and fuel gas piping. The piping shall be dried prior to introducing
nitrogen and preserved with nitrogen.
13) All opening in cleaned system shall be sealed with cap, plug or blind plate.
14) The system shall be pressurized with nitrogen up to 0.3 kg./cm2 and maintained with the
pressure between 0.2 kg/cm2 and 0.3 kg/cm2 by adding nitrogen.
15) Records shall be prepared by the inspector of the Contractor and submitted to the Owners
representative to sign acceptance of cleanliness, if the Owners representatives want to review it.
6.5 Steam Blowing
Follow the document of Steam Blowing out Procedure: will be informed later.
6.6 Air Blowing
1) This method should be used as a cleaning method for fuel gas, fuel oil, instrument/service air and N2/Co2/H2
gas lines and feed water line. Two main methods of air blowing shall be used depending on the diameter of
the lines, the quantity of fluid to be used and the time needed to fill in the system at the desired pressure.
2) Practically, continuous air blowing may be used up to NPS 6 pipe, the quick decompression method for
pipes over NPS 6.
3) Air is continuously blown from a source (Air compressor of a large capacity) at a high velocity through the
lines to carry away the foreign matters. Due to high velocity of the air, a light erosion of the walls generally
can occur during the air blowing, which is beneficial with regards to cleaning. Blowing of galvanized steel
pipe shall be mild so as not to affect the galvanized coating.
4) Quick decompression
5) A pipe network is pressurized by compressed air up to a maximum pressure of 50 psig or up to design
pressure whichever is lower. The pressure shall then be released by quick opening of valve, already in line or
installed temporarily for this purpose. The quick decompression causes a high velocity of air flow in the pipes,
thus removing foreign matters and performing a light erosion on the walls which eliminates rust.
6) For some operations, oil free air/dried air might be needed.

should be as per recommendation.
After internal surfaces have been cleaned and dried, dry smear samples shall be takenfrom representative surfaces of the piping and verified clean to the mg/m2 levelsspecified in the above table.
This verification can be by the optical comparison method of Figure 6 orthe reflectance meter method or equivalent method.
D. Cleanliness class and criteriaClass A
A very high level of cleanliness there is no evidence of contamination of the surface, eitherunder visual examination, with or without magnification, or with the aid of sensitive detectionmethods.
Class A cleanliness is applied to special systems and/or components such as delicate instruments and
other close tolerance or carefully controlled surfaces or assemblies. Such systems or components should
receive their required level of cleanliness at the point of manufacture and cleanliness must be maintained
at the construction site.
Normally any required site cleanliness inspection and/or re-cleaning should only be performed by
suppliers representatives or under the suppliers supervision.
Class BA high level of cleanliness meets the following guidelines.If flushing is the only practical means for
evaluating the cleanliness of internal surfaces, a 20 mesh (850micrometer, ASTM E- 11, Specification for
Wire Cloth and Sieves for Testing Purposes) or finer filter, or the equivalent, shall be installed in the system
or component flushed with water. The system or component shall be flushed at the required velocity until
the screen shows no more than a slight speckling and no more than a slight rust staining. There shall be no
particles larger than 0.8mm by 1.6mm long. In water flushed systems, there shall be no visual evidence of
contamination such as oil or discoloration in the effluent flush water.
Note : Class B cleanliness should be specified for carbon steel and low alloy steel surfaces only in
special cases because of the difficulty in maintaining such surfaces in the condition after the flush.
Class C
An intermediate level of cleanliness in which the surfaces meet the requirements for Class B exceptas follows.
-Thin, uniform rust films on carbon steel surfaces are acceptable.
-Hard rust which forms in a crusty film and tends to break off in pieces or flakes and/or heavy
rusting is not acceptable for carbon steel and must be removed.
Class D
A nominal level of cleanliness the following are acceptable.
-Rust films on both corrosion resistant alloys and carbon steel and low-alloy steel surfaces.
-Tightly adherent mill scale on non-machined carbon and low-alloy steel surfaces.
- Paint or preservation coatings on carbon and low-alloy steel surfaces that will not peel or flake when
subjected to cold water flushing.
- Particles no larger than 1.6mm by 3.2mm on 14 mesh (1.4mm, ASTM E-1 1, Specification for WireCloth
and Sieves for Testing Purposes) or finer filter, or equivalent.
