API 6A Chokes - PR1/PR2 Testings

08/22/2016 9:40 AM

Hi all, Greetings!!!

For API 6A Chokes, i have some below queries reg testings of validations.

1. i have design the chokes as per API 6A clause 4 with fulfill the requirements of clause 10.9. regarding this, should i do the PR1/PR2 Test as per Table 86 which is reflected in the clause 10.9.?

2.What is the difference between the Table 86(Performance Test Requirement) as per clause 10.9 in API Spec 6A and Annex F PR1/PR2 Requirements? since it is design validation test.

3. If table 86 need to be done means, do we need to perform this test as per Annex F?

4. Is Table 86 PR1/PR2 test mandatory for all chokes?
