What is the difference between “Rated Pressure” and “Test Pressure”?

The Rated Pressure (e.g., 60MPa / 6,000m) is the safe Working Pressure for continuous operation. The Test Pressure is typically set higher (e.g., 1.5x or specific batch protocol) for a short duration during qualification to verify safety margins. HYSF tests every production batch to ensure zero leakage at the Rated Pressure.

Safety margins are critical in subsea engineering.

Working Pressure (SWP): 60MPa. This is the depth at which the connector is designed to operate 24/7.
Burst/Failure Pressure: The theoretical limit where structural failure occurs, which is significantly higher than 60MPa.
Our Protocol: We utilize 100MPa High-Pressure Pumps in our lab. Routine batch testing confirms seal integrity at the rated depth for 60 minutes to catch any infant mortality failures.
