High Pressure Test Facility
Home > Projects
Project overview
Our team of experts designed, manufactured, and installed a test facility for large hot water cylinders, enabling automated pressure testing to verify product integrity and compliance with performance standards.
The challenge was to create a safe, efficient, and repeatable test environment capable of handling large vessels under high-pressure conditions, while providing clear operator control and reliable data monitoring.
the solution
Incotech delivered a fully automated test facility engineered for precision and operator safety:
-
Dual Test Enclosures – Two large test chambers, each equipped with door interlocks to ensure safe operation during pressurisation.
-
Automated Test Sequence – Once the cylinder is connected, the system automatically fills and pressurises the tank to defined parameters.
-
Real-Time Monitoring – Pressure sensors continuously track pressure levels over time to confirm product performance.
-
PLC Control System – Centralised control via a PLC provides consistent, accurate automation.
-
HMI Operator Interface – A remote-mounted HMI screen offers simple operation, real-time feedback, and system status visibility.
