HYDRO TEST AFTER NOZZLE REPLACE TO NEW VESSEL
HYDRO TEST AFTER NOZZLE REPLACE TO NEW VESSEL
(OP)
Dear All,
Greetings
I have one question. Please help me to solve this issue. Now we are in project - construction phase. We received small pressure vessel from long time. It is re-heat condensate drum. Now we observed it has wrong nozzles ( mean the nozzles came from non-approved supplier ). Contractor start to cut and already they purchased new nozzles from approved supplier. They want to put them and perform welding. What type of tests I should ask them after repairing or alteration? Only DPT or Hydro test also ? Please I need the answer according to international standard.
Note: It is ASME stamped (U)
Thanks and my special appreciation for all of you

Either the National Board Inspection Code or API 510 would be the international codes to follow, and they contain the necessary requirements. I would recommend a wet florescent MT and liquid pressure test - not a construction code hydrostatic test.
