    PSV testing as received condition

    Dears I am working in Refinery & petrochemical company. As soon as we received any psv from any service(Like Hydrocarbon, Phenol, Cumene, Sour gas, Crude oil etc..)in the PSV shop for testing & calibration, our initial step in the shop is visual inspection as received condition. If there is no...
