SCITEQ A/S

Crack propagation tester for tubes (RCP)
ISO 13477, ø 250 mm SCITEQ A/S

SCITEQ RCP small-scale steady-state test (S4 test) is developed for determination of arrest or propagation of a crack initiated in a thermoplastic
pipe intended for the supply of gases or liquids at a specific temperature and
internal pressure. Built according to ISO 13477.

The SCITEQ RCP system is built up of three main components, RCP machine with stroke cylinder and control panel, containment cage with end closures complete for each pipe size and a tool kit complete for each SDR (Standard
Dimension Ratio).
Each tool kit includes anvil, striker blade, containment cage spacers and decompression baffles.
The specified test temperature and pressure is measured and shown on the control panel.
Due to the unique design of end closures and containment cage it is fast and easy to change to another pipe size and/or SDR.
Using a stroke cylinder at high air pressure ensures maximum energy at impact point.
