Hot Air Oven for Hydrostatic Pressure Test

The Hot Air Chamber for Hydrostatic Testing is a specialized thermal enclosure designed to subject polymer pipes and fittings to internal pressure at elevated temperatures. Unlike water baths, this air-based system features a full-view glass door and internal lighting, allowing operators to visually monitor the expansion and failure mode of the sample in real-time. It is equipped with multiple pressure inlet lines and a circulation fan to ensure strict compliance with ISO 1167 and ASTM D1598.

Description

Hot Air Oven for Hydrostatic Pressure Testing

Testing polymer pipes and fittings for long-term hydrostatic strength requires precise temperature control. While water baths are common, the Hot Air Hydrostatic Chamber offers a distinct advantage: Visibility. Designed for evaluating complex fittings and assemblies, this unit allows you to connect your samples to pressure lines and watch exactly how they behave under thermal stress.

Crystal Clear Visual Inspection

Detecting the exact point of failure in a complex fitting assembly can be difficult in a murky water tank. Our Hot Air Chamber solves this with:

  • Full-View Glass Door: A large, tempered glass window allows safe observation of the test without opening the door and disturbing the thermal environment.
  • Internal Lighting: Bright illumination ensures you can spot even the smallest drip or deformation immediately.

Engineered for Pressure Testing

This is not a standard laboratory oven. It is specifically modified for hydrostatic applications:

  • Custom Pressure Inlets: The chamber is fitted with dedicated ports to feed high-pressure hoses from your pressure unit to the samples inside. The number of ports can be customized to match your testing capacity.
  • Uniform Air Circulation: A powerful fan system eliminates hot spots, ensuring the air temperature surrounding the pipe is stable and uniform, meeting the strict tolerances of PID Control.
  • Stainless Steel Interior: Resistant to corrosion and easy to clean in case of a burst sample.

Complete the System

This chamber provides the thermal environment, but you need a pressure source to stress the pipes. This unit is designed to work seamlessly with our Hydrostatic Pressure Tester, which controls the internal water pressure.

International Standards Compliance

This hot air oven is calibrated to maintain the test conditions required by:

  • ISO 1167: Thermoplastics pipes, fittings and assemblies — Determination of resistance to internal pressure.
  • ASTM D1598: Standard Test Method for Time-to-Failure of Plastic Pipe Under Constant Internal Pressure.
