My chamber has an open cap on the exit that closes out the regen cooling passages. For pressure/leak tests, I replace that open cap with a solid one. Mine only operates at 250 psi though.

Chamber for a bi-liquid, has a main joint at the top, several pipe entry points etc. Operates (or should) at 2,100 psi, so even a tiny leak could be disastrous - think Challenger.I want to pressure-test it to maybe 3,500 psi, and was wondering if there was a standard way to seal the nozzle for testing?Any other thoughts? -- Peter Fairbrother
