Cylinder Testing
Working with our network of suppliers, The SCUBA Group are able to provide both visual and hydro cylinder testing including the cylinder valve. We are also able to oxygen clean cylinders.
The time needed between tests and type of test (visual and hydrostatic) depends upon what you use the cylinder for.
Diving cylinders require testing every 2.5 years (visual every 2.5 years and a hydrostatic every 5 years):
For example a cylinder manufactured in October 2022 requires:
-
a visual test - April 2025
-
a hydrostatic test - October 2027
A cylinder not used for diving (air rifle, storage vessels etc) only require a hydrostatic test every 5 years
Cylinders that require O2 cleaning have to be re-cleaned every 15 months.
