Mokveld Valves commissions test bunkers

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

Developed internally by Mokveld, the bunkers allow pressure testing with nitrogen and helium up to 1200 bar, and temperature testing within a range of -196-200°C. The bunkers are fully automatically controlled and meet the latest safety requirements. 

The bunkers were built to address the increasingly stringent demands of the industry in terms of quality and safety, such as fugitive emissions, PR2, or type approval testing.

After the completion of these bunkers Mokveld will continue to expands its testing facilities by constructing two other test bunkers which are expected be completed in 2016.
