The hydrostatic pressure test bench determines the pressure resistance of irrigation network components, verifying compliance with the minimum requirements established by regulations. Hydrostatic pressure tests are performed on components before any other tests to ensure that subjecting a component to a specific pressure for a certain period does not affect its overall performance. The most important tests performed on this bench are: mechanical strength of the casing, casing watertightness, valve closure watertightness under hydraulic pressure, and external pressure watertightness (vacuum test).
