7.3.1 Manoeuvring
valves are to be tested to twice the working pressure. The nozzle
boxes of impulse turbines are to be tested to 1,5 times the working
pressure.
7.3.2 The cylinders of all turbines are to be tested to 1,5 times the working
pressure in the casing, or to 0,2 MPa, whichever is the greater.
7.3.3 For
test purposes, the cylinders may be sub-divided with temporary diaphragms
for distribution of test pressures.
7.3.4 Condensers are to be tested in the steam space to 0,1 MPa. The water space
is to be tested to the maximum pressure which the pump can develop at ship's full
draught with the discharge valve closed plus 0,07 MPa, with a minimum test pressure of
0,2 MPa. Where the operating conditions are not known, the test pressure is to be not
less than 0,34 MPa, see
Pt 5, Ch 14 Machinery Piping Systems.
