10 Year Periodic Testing of LPG Spherical Tank

10 Yearly testing of LPG spherical tanks ( Periodic testing ) :

The LPG spherical tanks have to be periodically tested at least once in 5 years or 10 years as per the
local regulations . The entire sphere is retested for Ultra sonic test of plate and welded joints ,
Pentrant Test , Radiography Test of welded joints , Magnetic particle test and also hydro test of the
entire vessel with water at the designated test pressure as mentioned on the tank data plate , to
determine and crack , flaw , laminations in steel plate , defects in welding or parent material and to
ensure the integrity of the vessel and if any such defect is observed the same is repaired and re
tested before put to use again . The retest date should be punched on the data plate .
