Institutes/laboratoria for valve testing

Institutes/laboratoria for valve testing

(OP)
Dear All,

Who can name me some institutes or laboratoria that perform API607 or BS6755-2 valve tests.

Preferred are the one's in Europe or even more Benelux.

Thank you very much!

Regards,
MT

RE: Institutes/laboratoria for valve testing

Try Score's test facilities in Scotland.
Contact Mr. Steve Abel at steve.abel@score-group.com or +441132898436 and tell him kind regards from Hans Gustorf.

RE: Institutes/laboratoria for valve testing

mticheler,
       you may try to visit the following web-pages:

          -     http://www.bsi-global.com  (look for the BSI test house in Hemel Hempstead);

          -     http://www.nel.uk/facilities.asp ;

          -     http://www.siet.it/Sitosietenglish/Inglese/SetRiqMAINACTIV.html ;

          -     http://www.omecosrl.it/servizi-6.html .


       As you probably know, searching the web one can find many testing facilities and laboratories, but most of them are in the USA (mainly in Texas); the above mentioned ones are not in BeNeLux, but at least in Europe...

Hope this helps,               'NGL

RE: Institutes/laboratoria for valve testing

    In accordance with Hans Gustorf's suggestion, I would like to mention the new Score Group web-site and, in particular, the page:
                 http://www.score-europe.org/enhanced_testing.html .

    Ciao,                 'NGL    

RE: Institutes/laboratoria for valve testing

mticheler,
     we're getting closer to Benelux    In fact, I found something in France:

     http://international.cstb.fr/frame.asp?URL=Facilities/feu.asp

     This fire facility, of course, is not dedicated to valves, but I think that CTSB is able to set up the tests you need (maybe we'll contact them for a NSF 61 approval, for instance...).

Bye,      'NGL

RE: Institutes/laboratoria for valve testing

Yarmouth Labs, Yarmouth, Main, USA does API 607
E mail Matt Wasielewski yrtlab@maine.rr.com

Hope this helps.

RE: Institutes/laboratoria for valve testing

mticheler,
    another French Institute:

                      http://www.cetim.fr/index.jsp

    They surely perform fugitive emissions testing (see RichDavis' post of April 7th, 2005 on Thread408-115884), they probably are able to carry out many other types of tests (try typing "valves" into the search motor...).

Bye,                'NGL
