Preliminary EDS Liquid Sample Adapter Design Assurance Testing
Abstract
A new liquid sample adapter design for the Explosive Destruction Systems has been developed. The design features a semi-transparent fluoropolymer tube coupled to the vessel high pressure sample valve with a closing quick connect fitting. The sample tubes are the pressure-limiting component. The tubes were hydrostatically tested to establish failure characteristics and pressure limits at ambient and operational temperatures. A group of tubes from two manufacturing lots were tested to determine the consistency of the commercial part. An upper pressure limit was determined for typical operations.
