Test instruments
Produce measurements or test evidence. Range, accuracy, calibration, leads, accessories and traceability must suit the acceptance basis.
Engineering reference
A structured reference for commonly considered test instruments, hand and power tools, temporary equipment, lifting equipment, consumables and digital systems.
Tool selection depends on the system, commissioning activity, project specification, OEM requirements, client and Class rules, jurisdiction, work environment and task risk assessment. This first catalogue pass normalises an Elvis-supplied working draft; it is neither universally exhaustive nor a statement that every listed item is required.
Produce measurements or test evidence. Range, accuracy, calibration, leads, accessories and traceability must suit the acceptance basis.
Support assembly, adjustment, access, test boundaries and controlled temporary configurations. Inspection, certification and reinstatement may apply.
Support testing, preservation, evidence and turnover. They do not replace controlled materials, revision or cyber/change-management requirements.
The shared catalogue now exposes conditional planning capabilities for steam generation and distribution, condensate return, steam-trap surveys, steam blowing, thermal-oil filling and circulation, fluid conditioning, sampling, analysis and temporary support. Select Steam Systems or Thermal-Oil Systems in the planner’s system/package filter to retrieve the applicable registry records.
Ultrasonic and temperature observations can support steam-trap and leak surveys, but neither method is treated as a standalone pass/fail rule. Instrument suitability, stable operating context and trained interpretation remain essential.
Sampling, laboratory analysis, start-up support, flushing, refill, filtration and conditioning are represented as conditional capabilities. Fluid-supplier, OEM and project requirements determine which are applicable.
Terminology and planning relevance were checked against Spirax Sarco steam-trap testing guidance, FLIR acoustic-imaging support, and Eastman Therminol lifecycle-care guidance. These sources support context only; they do not make every item necessary for every project.
Search aliases such as “Megger,” or filter by category and discipline. The planner provides system/package filters including steam and thermal-oil contexts. Filters change discovery only; they do not establish project requirements.
No catalogue entry matches these filters. Clear filters or use the planner's owner/vendor confirmation path; do not infer that equipment is unnecessary.
Confirm the required range, accuracy, resolution, calibration status, certificate traceability, accessories and configuration. A register does not replace a valid certificate or pre-use status check.
Verify actual voltage category, pressure rating, load capacity, inspection or examination status, environmental limits and compatibility with the test arrangement.
Equipment used in a classified area must have the project-accepted certification and protection concept for the actual gas group, temperature class, zone and conditions of use.
High-voltage, pressure, load, NDT, well-control and safety-system testing remains subject to approved procedures and trained, competent and authorised personnel.
Safety and authority: This reference is indicative planning guidance, not a procurement specification, test procedure, RAMS, permit, isolation plan or lifting plan. OEM, project, client, Class, statutory and competent-person requirements take precedence. Equipment must suit the actual voltage, pressure, load, environment and task.
