A Tightness Testing Inspection (Leak Test Other Than Soap Bubble Method per ASME V @ 5-10 psi)

After the test pressure is reached and before commencement of


inspection of the system, the isolation valve between the temporary test SAES-A-004
A1
manifold/piping and the piping/equipment under pressure test shall be Para 8.1.2
closed and the test pump disconnected.

If the drop in ambient temperature may cause the test medium to freeze

Para 5.8
protect the equipment or piping systems.

All flange joints and threaded joints are exposed and inspected for leaks SAES-L-150

using method approved by the operating organization. Para 7.3
The results of the latest pressure testing shall be documented in the SAES-L-150

visual exam for leaks.
After preliminary checks for leaks, increase the steam pressure in steps
no greater than 20% of the test pressure with 10 minute holds at each

Attachment 1 - Safety During Leak Tests in Steam Service


1: Visual exams for steam leakage are extremely dangerous. Only
experienced personnel perform exams.

2: Steam leaks are not spotted/seen at higher pressures. Danger!


3: Gauges should be match marked with tape/pen to identify slight
pressure drops.

4: Steam leaks at higher pressures (verified by test gauge drops)


require special care around flanges. These leaks are very often
invisible, and are usually easily heard.
5: Techniques for personnel utilize operational controls and reduced
pressures (for safety). A long broomstick handle making a 360 degree
pass at periphery of flanges will verify a flange leak.
6: An Invisible high pressure steam leak can easily knock a broom
handle from your hand or cut it in half. This is a dangerous.
Operators & Inspectors have been killed and seriously injured due to steam
cuts (severed limbs & worse). There is no stupid safety rule, each one is written
in Blood. Follow a careful plan for Insp & take necessary Safety Precautions to
assure Your Safety & that of Others.

7: Gauges should be match marked with tape and pen to identify


slight pressure drops.
8: LEAKS SHOULD BE FOUND AT LOW PRESSURE (AS VISIBLE)
9: SAFETY GEAR (GLOVES = HOT SURFACES, GOGGLES)

OPERATIONS & COMMISSIONING TEAMS SHALL COORDINATE &


LEAD REGARDING UNIT ACCESS, SPECIFICS IN PROCEDURE &
ABOVE ALL, SAFE & CONTROLLED SYSTEM PRESSURIZATION PER
ESTABLISHED OPERATIONAL SEQUENCE. ATTEND PRE-JOB
MEETINGS FOR SAFETY & DISCUSS "LEAK TEST SAFETY".
