We are pleased to offer on site hydrostatic testing, ultrasonic testing and cylinder maintenance for our customers. Because our testing is done on site, most cylinders can be tested and back to the customer in one week. If needed, we can also shot blast and paint cylinders.
Ultrasonic testing is a new option as a way to test cylinders. It transmits bursts of ultrasonic energy into the gas cylinder material and monitors the reflection from any flaw that may be there.
Some advantages to this form of testing include:
No need to de-valve the cylinder
More proficient at detecting thin walls, pitting and corrosion
Faster turn around time
Able to test steel, aluminum and high strength steel cylinders
