Becetel provides specialized environmental stress and thermal fatigue testing for technical plastics, pressure pipes, and valve assemblies:

Thermal Cycling Resistance Testing: Cyclic temperature exposure and resistance testing according to standards such as EN 12119 for plastics valves and fittings.
Combined Bending & Thermal Cycling: Leaktightness testing under mechanical bending combined with simultaneous thermal cycling according to EN 1704.
Hydrostatic Environmental Stress Testing: Multiple elevated-temperature water tank test stations performing long-term hydrostatic strength extrapolation (ISO 9080) and notch stress crack growth tests.
Mechanical Durability & Integrity: Resistance to bending between supports (EN 12100), operating torque across various temperatures (ISO 8233), and rapid crack propagation testing (S4).
Material Characterization: Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Vicat softening temperature (ISO 306), oxidation induction time (OIT), and coefficient of thermal expansion measurement.
