  3. Problem Statement The current, manually controlled, hydrostatic test apparatus needs to be redesigned so that test automation can occur via a digital control interface. The interface includes editable parameters for the pressure, ramp rate, and hold time of the test being performed. Once these variables are set, the test is able to take place. All of these parameters are automatically controlled within the system so that the technician can observe the test and capture the results. The purposed design for the new test apparatus must include minimal system maintenance, an easily programmable digital interface, ability to interface with the existing pump and test enclosures, test automation, and able to withstand a maximum internal pressure of 10,000 PSI. The apparatus is designed around performing tests on electrical enclosures to ensure they meet the operational specifications as outlined in standards UL1203, UL2225, and CSA22.2 no.30. These standards provide the basis for all tests performed by the hydrostatic test apparatus.

  4. What is a Hydrostatic Test? • Tests structural integrity of the product • Product: Electrical enclosures • Simulates explosion within the electrical enclosure • High Pressure Tests : • Proof Test • Hold time at specified pressure • Destructive Test • Test to failure • Determines safety factor (UL Standards)

  5. Standards • UL1203 • Electrical enclosure: 10 sec hold time without rupture • Safety factor of 4x internal explosion pressure • UL2225 • Cable sealing: 10 sec hold time w/o rupture • Safety factor of 4x internal explosion pressure • Pressure: 100-600psi/min • CSA22.2 no.30

  6. Current Hydrostatic Test Apparatus • Fully functional • Manually controlled by technicians • Analog pressure and time measurements • Isolated Test Environment • Follows standards: • UL1203 • UL2225 • CSA22.2 no.30

  7. New Hydrostatic Test Apparatus • Programmable Digital Interface • Hold time, Pressure, Ramp rate • Automated test system • Data logging capabilities for external PC • Future Labview Integration • Retain existing hydraulic pressure sources

  8. Project Deliverables • Hardware • Complete onsite test apparatus • Documentation • Maintenance Recommendations • Model for fatigue predictions • User guide for operation • Engineering Drawings
