Hydrostatic Cylinder Testing: Ensuring Safety and Compliance of High-Pressure Gas Cylinders
Hydrostatic Cylinder Testing is a crucial safety procedure used to verify the strength and integrity of high-pressure gas cylinders. These cylinders operate under extreme pressure and are widely used across industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, oil & gas, and industrial welding. Certified Cylinder Services Inc. (CCS) provides professional hydrostatic and ultrasonic testing for gas cylinders approved by Transport Canada, helping businesses maintain safety, compliance, and long-term reliability. High-pressure gas cylinders are built to last, but continuous use, environmental exposure, and aging can weaken their structure. Without proper testing, small defects can turn into major safety hazards. This is why routine testing is not only recommended but legally required under Canadian regulations. What Is Hydrostatic Cylinder Testing? Hydrostatic testing is a non-destructive testing method designed to determine whether a gas cylinder can safely hold pressure. During th...
