Page No. : 10 of 18 Vacuum Flexing Test The purpose of this test is to establish the quality of diaphragm as manufactured in each batch, so that it retains the necessary mechanical and chemical integrity to successfully perform in the vacuum environment. The test shall be conducted by mounting the valve on the vacuum testing machine and maintain a vacuum at 10-2 Torr (abs.). Carry out 5000 cycles of full opening and closing of the diaphragm valve under the above mentioned vacuum. After the above mentioned cycling test, dismantle the valve and carry out visual examination of the diaphragm for any deterioration or defects like cracks, lack of bonding, stud bonding or any other imperfection. In case the diaphragm successfully passes the above mentioned cycling test and visual examination, this particular batch of diaphragms shall be considered acceptable. In case the diaphragm fails during the vacuum flexing test or subsequent visual examination, carry out vacuum flexing and visual tests on two more diaphragms from the same batch. If both the diaphragms are successfully tested, the batch of diaphragms shall be considered acceptable. In case any one of the diaphragms fails during vacuum flexing and visual examination, the whole batch of the diaphragms shall be rejected. Testing of Valves Once a particular batch of diaphragm is successfully tested, each individual valve, having acceptable diaphragm, shall be tested as per the drawing. Vacuum Body / Seat Test The vacuum body / seat test shall be carried out as under. With a combination of rotary and diffusion pumps, evacuate the valve to 10-4 to 10-5 mm Hg (abs) pressure. Spray acetone on the entire surface of the valve. If there is any leakage, the volatile liquid will be absorbed inside the valve, which will evaporate showing a sudden and clear indication of increase in pressure on the penning vacuum gauge attached to the test system. The valves shall be accepted only if there is no indication of abrupt change of pressure on the vacuum gauge. Each diaphragm valve shall have a metal tag attached to it, to identify the diaphragm batch number with date of manufacture and individual valve tag number.

Manufacturer shall prepare the for helium leak test and submit it for purchaser s approval. 7.0 PACKING AND SHIPMENT 7.1 After hydrostatic testing and before shipment, all the valves shall be thoroughly cleaned internally and externally of oil, grease, dusts, chips, moisture and other harmful foreign matter. 7.2 Unless otherwise specified elsewhere, one coat of primer and two coats of epoxy paint shall be applied to all Carbon steel and cast iron exposed surfaces to prevent corrosion before despatch. 7.3 All valves shall have permanent name plates indicating details as per MSS SP 25 Standard Marking System for valves, fittings, flanges and Unions. In addition, a permanent Stainless Steel tag shall be fixed on the valve body indicating valve tag number. 7.4 The Contractor shall make adequate packing and provisions to protect the valves and actuators supplied as per this specification to ensure that on arrival at the destination specified in the tender specification and after storage the same will not suffer any corrosion or damage of any sort. 7.5 The valves shall be packed in weather proof wooden crates with adequate bracing to prevent movement within the box.
