Key Tests Performed

1. Hydrostatic Testing: Verifies the tubes' ability to withstand high pressures without leakage.
2. Penetrant Testing (PT): Ensures the surface of the U bend tubes and welds is free from cracks, pinholes, or other defects.
3. Eddy Current Testing (ECT): Detects any material discontinuities within the tubes.
4. Ultrasonic Testing (UT): Ensures the integrity of the tube material and welds.
5. Dimensional Inspection: Confirms the accuracy of U bends, tube lengths, and wall thickness.
6. Hardness Testing: Ensures the mechanical properties meet ASME SA179 specifications.
7. Visual Inspection: Detects any visible defects or irregularities on the surface of the tubes and tubesheets.

Each tube bundle is supplied with a complete set of test certificates and inspection reports, ensuring full traceability and compliance with customer requirements.
