Located at their 40,000-square-foot facility in Houston, Texas, Master Flo’s hyperbaric test system is one of the largest of its kind in the United States.
The system enables them to test equipment at pressures equivalent to depths of up to 23,000 feet (7,000 meters) below sea level, reaching pressures of 10,000 psi (690 bar).
Not only is the system used to qualify Master Flo products to the most extreme environmental conditions, but it is also available for their customers, partners, and other OEMs to utilize — providing a cost-effective alternative to sea tests.
