Abstract: A pressure-testing system for a tubular product. Preferably, the tubular product is a joint or a stand of production tubing. The pressure testing assembly includes a controller; a fluid reservoir configured to contain a test fluid; a pump in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir; a fluid hose having a first end configured to receive the test fluid from the reservoir, and a second end configured to be fluidically connected to a hydrotest tool for the tubular product; and a transducer. The transducer sends signals to the controller indicative of pressure within the fluid hose. The controller is programmed to automatically (i) store a pressure threshold value (T) and (ii) store a pressure test value (PT) such that when pressure in the fluid hose reaches (T) or when pressure in the fluid hose reaches (PT), the controller sends a signal to a diverter to divert a direction of fluid being pumped so that fluid is no longer pumped into tubular product.

The transducer sends signals to the controller indicative of pressure within the fluid hose. The controller is programmed to automatically (i) store a pressure threshold value (T) such that when pressure in the fluid hose reaches (T), the controller sends a signal to the pump to discontinue pumping; and (ii) store a pressure test value (PT) such when pressure in the fluid hose reaches (PT), the controller sends a signal to the pump to discontinue pumping.
