Operate power and hand tools for the installation and removal of tooling required for pressure testing.
Use an overhead crane located inside the testing booth to position ducts filled with water for testing.
Protect against spray and bursting of ducts and tubes by closing Plexiglas testing booth doors when testing above 400 p.s.i.
Verify and inspect the actual pressure test results, checking for leakage, and proceed to depressurization and disassembly of test equipment if no leakage is detected.
Collaborate with Quality Assurance on process monitoring audits and non-conformance documentation, attaching rejection tags to assemblies as needed.
Dry ducts using an air hose or shop towel before installing protective rubber end caps to prevent damage to flanges after testing.
