Xiom’s hose test units carry out hydrostatic testing in cycles up to the hose’s pressure rating. This determines the integrity of the casing from leakage and any out-of-specification elongation of the hose.
Vacuum testing is also carried out to allow inspection of the inner surface of the hose for blisters or separation of the inner tube from the carcass. Electrical continuity of the hose can also be tested to OCIMF requirements.
A specialised hose test unit is available to carry out a destructive burst test on a sample hose section.
