Coupon Container Pressure Test
Abstract
A total of six containers were tested to verify the Maximum Allowed Working Pressure (MAWP) rating of 100 psi. Three Inner Container Pressure Test Assemblies (1006759387-AA) and three Outer Container Pressure Test Assemblies (1006729168-AA) were tested. The container serial numbering is the drawing number followed by the serial number (i.e.,1006759387-###). The test procedure was performed as follows: 1. Pressurize to 50 psi and hold for 5 minutes. 2. Increase pressure to 100 psi and hold for 5 minutes. 3. Increase pressure to 150 psi and hold for a minimum of 20 minutes. A container is considered to pass if the pressure drops less than 1% at the end of the 20 minutes. All six containers passed the test.
