history of Exxon valve burn test and API 607 (4th edition)
history of Exxon valve burn test and API 607 (4th edition)
(OP)
From thread thread408-131095: What is difference in API607 and API6FA?
I'm hoping that ValveDude or someone can help me understand the history of the Exxon valve burn test mentioned and the API 607 test standard.
I have a reference to an API 607 (Exxon modified), and I'm trying to understand if API 607 (4th edition) which I have in my hands is a modified version of some previous Exxon burn test (which isn't clear from what I'm reading of it) or if instead there is some Exxon modification of the API 607 (4th edition) which I can somehow obtain. I know the current version is API 607 (5th edition), but I'm specifically interested in API 607 (4th edition) and any Exxon modification of it if there is such.
Can someone clarify?
Thanks,
Brendan Wyly
