🔍 Key Concepts

• Hydrostatic test temperature range for water-tube boilers in 46 CFR Part 52 and ASME Section I • How water temperature affects metal stress and test accuracy during a pressure test • Difference between being too close to boiling point vs. too cold for safe testing

💭 Think About

• Think about why regulations avoid using water that is very hot when doing a hydrostatic test. What risk increases as the water temperature approaches saturation/boiling? • Consider why very cold water is also undesirable. How would very cold water affect the boiler metal and the reliability of the pressure test? • Look at the answer choices: which ones imply a limit because the water would be getting too hot for a safe, controlled hydrostatic test?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the required test temperature range (minimum and maximum) in 46 CFR for water-tube boiler hydrostatic tests. • Check which choice describes a maximum allowed temperature, not a minimum, since the phrase is "not ________". • Confirm that the selected option keeps the test water well below boiling yet above very cold conditions.
