Quick Summary

Overview

SCOPE OF WORK Hydrostatic Test Execution: Set up, operate, and monitor the hydrostatic test chamber to perform pressure testing on sealed vessels, housings, and related components.

Technical Tools

Other

Hydrostatic Test Execution: Set up, operate, and monitor the hydrostatic test chamber to perform pressure testing on sealed vessels, housings, and related components. Follow established procedures to pressurize components to specified proof levels, maintain dwell times, and continuously monitor for pressure decay or leakage.
Test Setup and Fixturing: Prepare test articles by installing necessary fittings, plugs, seals, sensors, and fluid interfaces. Verify fixture and test setups prior to pressurization. Maintain and stage testing fixtures, high-pressure tooling, and supporting hardware.
Inspection and Anomaly Identification: Visually inspect components before, during, and after test sequences for leaks, seal degradation, weld flaws, structural anomalies, or other non-conformances. Accurately document and isolate all non-conforming conditions.
Data Recording and Quality Documentation: Maintain rigorous records of all test parameters, cycles, results, and observed conditions. Complete test logs, formal reports, and quality system documentation in accordance with standard operating procedures. Interpret precision pressure gauges and sensor data to ensure testing integrity.
Equipment Maintenance and Calibration Tracking: Perform routine preventative maintenance on the chamber, pumps, valves, high-pressure lines, and instrumentation. Flag equipment requiring repair, overhaul, or recalibration.
Safety and Environmental Compliance: Maintain strict compliance with safety guidelines governing high-pressure pneumatic and hydrostatic operations. Maintain clean and organized test bays, and promptly report any process anomalies or equipment hazards.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Interface with production teams, quality assurance, and engineering personnel to align test schedules, communicate test outcomes, and assist in root-cause isolation for failed units. Provide technical feedback regarding recurring build anomalies or design considerations.
Process Improvement Support: Contribute technical input to improve test documentation, fixturing design, cycle times, and chamber throughput.
