Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) provides comprehensive solutions for atmosphere control testing, tailored to meet demanding applications of the nuclear sector. Accurate testing and verification are crucial for nuclear facilities to ensure optimal system performance, protect personnel, and comply with regulatory standards.
The Role of Atmosphere Control Testing in Nuclear Operations
Materials operating at cryogenic temperatures can exhibit reduced ductility, increased brittleness, and changes in mechanical properties. Our cryogenic materials testing services assess how materials like metals, alloys, polymers, and composites respond to these conditions. We then apply established methods to evaluate conditions like tensile strength, fracture toughness, impact resistance, and thermal contraction.
Our testing is performed in controlled laboratory environments using specialized cooling systems. To help ensure consistent results, all testing follows applicable industry standards tailored to each client’s specifications.
Our Comprehensive Capabilities
ATS offers specialized atmosphere control testing services, both on-site and in-lab, to assess and verify controlled environments. Our skilled technicians employ industry-standard methods and calibrated instruments to deliver reliable, defensible results. Beyond our radioactive-materials testing, we also provide a variety of client-specific applications relevant to atmosphere control:
- Mechanical testing (tensile, impact, fatigue, and fracture toughness)
- Gas composition analysis
- Measurement of thermal contraction and expansion
- Compatibility evaluation with cryogenic fluids such as liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen
- Environmental monitoring and data collection
- Leak detection and containment verification
