It relates to a safety valve test system (E) which enables the testing of safety valves. The invention describes the testing of safety valves under specified pressure and airflow conditions. It is designed to verify its operation and determine whether it is faulty. The invention involves installing safety valves in a closed test tank (1) at specified pressure levels 15 It includes various components for testing. In this context, the content of the invention includes: Each of the elements mentioned ensures that the testing process is reliable and efficient. They work together in harmony to ensure its realization. The test tank (1) included in the invention is a closed pressure chamber in which safety valves are tested.
