Corrosion and Corrosion Control
an endless battle against nature
Field assembled insulating flange shall be tested with 1500VDC applied across the flange for 1 minute without causing break down or flash over. Electrical test to verify the insulating of the joint/ flange assembly for minimum of 1 MΩ for…
