There you go mip 75 mbar

Mop 23

So test would be 82.3 so 83mbar so you could test the mdpe at 100 mbar

Thanks for the calculations. As I don't have a gauge that does 100mb, I could do this as you suggested in the 1st place to 1 bar as it is only a soundness test after all. But, as you say it is commercial so should I avoid.

Well if one thing that comes out of this I have learnt a bit about cost of fittings for this size pipe and strength testing.

Thank you all

Upto you as it's not connected you could say your only testing the pipe for defective not carrying gas

I was thinking so much.

So what size manometer do you have for these tests any way
