Air Gun Hydro Test & Valve Service
Air Gun Hydro Test & Valve Service
The cylinder test is valid for either 2.5yrs or 5yrs. The 2.5yrs applies to a cylinder that has a scuba cylinder valve. The 5yrs applies where you have a dedicated air gun valve. Subsequently, you can easily identify whether you have a dedicated air gun valve by inspecting the valve and seeing if it has a built-in gauge or bleed screw.
Air Gun cylinder testing regulations
The air gun cylinder testing regulations for the use of high-pressure vessels are mandatory for periodic inspection. However, there is sometimes confusion about the rules for air gunners and cylinder charging stations. Firstly, a pressurised vessel (such as your air gun cylinder) must be treated with respect to ensure your safety. Furthermore, both the cylinder and valve require servicing and testing. All our cylinders are serviced in accordance with IDEST.
