Testing and Process Technology
Under Extreme Subsea Conditions
When Reliability Knows No Compromise
The subsea industry operates in a world of extreme pressures and unreachable depths. Testing and process technology pose immense challenges in this environment. Components must offer uncompromising reliability even under the most extreme operating conditions. Failures underwater are catastrophic and costly. Systems are needed that not only function technically but also operate reliably under real-world conditions.
What Really Matters Down in the Deep
Extreme pressure resistance
Components must withstand pressures far above normal levels.
Long-term stability
Functionality and integrity must be guaranteed for years underwater.
Complete documentation
Every test must be audit-proof and traceable to minimize risks.
Systems Tailored to Subsea Requirements
Our testing and process systems are designed to ensure that processes function under extreme conditions and integrate seamlessly into your manufacturing and quality assurance processes. Pressure profiles, loads, and limit ranges are specifically coordinated with one another.
- Designed for extreme pressure ranges
- Simulation of real underwater conditions
- Stable and repeatable processes under harsh conditions
Minimization of risks through precise results
Testing and Process Solutions Under Real-World Operating Conditions
Components are tested under conditions that correspond to their subsequent use at depth. Pressure profiles, loads, and limit conditions are specifically defined to obtain meaningful results.
- Defined pressure profiles for deep-sea applications
- Simulation of dynamic loads and temperature cycles
- Reproducible conditions for maximum safety
- Time-lapse tests with component cycling
Typical Tasks in the Subsea Sector
Batteries
Pressure tests to ensure the stability of the housing.
Cable and Connection Technology
Pressure insulation testing to ensure long-term stability.
Robotics
Pressure and time-lapse tests to ensure long-term durability.
Sensors for the Deep Sea
Pressure testing to prevent damage to the housing and to ensure precise measurement functions.
