Gaspack have the facilities to handle all of your testing requirements. We can test cylinders with a test pressure of up to 400bar on our proof testing rig. Gaspack also has a top of the line water jacket testing facility and a bespoke drum testing facility for drums up to 1000 litres.
Gaspack have bespoke equipment specifically designed to clean transportable pressure vessels. We can remove any contamination from the inside or outside of your vessel using a mixture of high pressure hot water and a degreasing detergent. We also have very effective drying equipment to make sure that your vessel is returned with no moisture.
Our shot blasting facilities are second to none. We have a bespoke internal shot blasting machine to make sure that the entire internal surface of your vessel is free from corrosion. We also have an external cylinder shot blasting machine and a shot blasting booth for those larger more difficult items.
We are able to Pi mark certain cylinders to allow them to travel through the EU. The EU Directive 2010/35/EU on transportable pressure equipment requires the use of a special logo to indicate compliance. Vessels which are transported, within the EU, by road, rail, sea or air must be Pi-marked.
Our fully certified inspectors have the use of many tools and gauges to aid them in their inspection activities. One of these gauges is the ultrasonic thickness gauge which we can use on the vessel's walls to tell us the exact thickness.
Gaspack have multiple dew point meters that can provide us with a very accurate reading of the moisture level within the refurbished vessel.
Within our spray booth we have the option to spray both paint and liquid Zinc. All of our paints are water based but we offer a single pack coating and a 2 pack coating for a more robust finish.
