Greetings,
We purchased a hydraulic pressure intensifier. It works by using piston areas.. so a high pressure piston and a low pressure piston causing reciprocation and thus intensification downstream based on the pistons ratio. (has internal check valves, a sequencing valve, and a pressure relief valve)
I am trying to find API specifications (or any other) that will guide me in writing a qualification test procedure for the intensifier.
Mainly looking for cycle testing and endurance of the intensifier over long term operation. I don't want to make up a cycle test based on what I think might be a good measure of endurance and thus following a standard would be extremely helpful.
This is to be used subsea for pressurizing accumulators.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thank You
