Characterization of pressure equipment and accessories
Non-destructive testing

Rely on an expert in pressure equipment for your studies
As a pressure equipment designer or user, you want to:
• validate the design of pressure-submitted accessories or components
• qualify products or suppliers in order to be supported when making a decision
Cetim designs, implements and analyses well defined tests taking into account every constraint and need:
• instrumentation and realization of measurements on pressure equipment (deformation, displacement, expansion...)
• pressure, temperature, artificial ageing, cycling tests...
• hydrostatic and pressure resistance regulatory tests (DES, P 97/23/CE...)
• our experts help you with specialized testing facilities: pressure tests up to 6000 bars, static or dynamics tests, large dimension bursting test facilites
• Cetim is an independent and renowned technical center which benefits for a 40-year experience in pressure equipment
• multidisciplinary skills in pressure vessels: materials, design, simulation, pressure tests, instrumentation, regulation
• important means allow a large range of tests to answer every issues
