Mokveld commissions new test bunkers

Mokveld Valves BV has commissioned two new test bunkers for testing critical, high-quality valve systems.

Both bunkers are unique installations, developed by Mokveld. With the commissioning of these test bunkers Mokveld is on the forefront of what is possible in terms of pressure and temperature testing of valve systems.

The bunkers allow pressure testing with nitrogen and helium up to 1200 bar. Temperature testing is possible within a range of -196ºC to 200ºC. The bunkers are fully automatically controlled and meet the latest safety requirements. After the completion of these bunkers Mokveld further expands its testing facilities with the construction of two other test bunkers, completion of which is expected in 2016.
