A test pressure whcih is used to perform hydro test is known as hydro test pressure, besically the hydro test pressure is more then the design pressure of pipe, tank, pressure vessel ..................
In the area of $20-$40
It means to re-hydro test the tank. It must be done after the date on the bottle or you cant get it refilled.
hydro means water so hydro test means a water test. also hydro static means water static
"Hydro" is short for Hydrostatic Testing. After so many years (listed on each tank) a propellant tank must be retested for leaks and material strength. If it fails, it is condemned and cannot be refilled, if it passes, you may use it until the next test date, which will be engraved onto the bottle. Hydro testing can be done by either physically going to and ordering, or mailing your tank to the manufacturer.
What is the procedure for hydro-testing?

they use 150% of the tanks rated pressure so for a 4500psi tank they test it at around 6700psi
The hydro date is the number on your tank that tells you when your tank must be hydro tested (usually 5 years). Hydro testing is when you ship your bottle away to make sure it is still suitable to fill with pressure. 9oz tanks do not need to be hydro tested, or any other tanks with a diameter of less than 2 inches.
Yes. Stop taking the hydro. THEN get tested.
Used tanks are often the cheapest. Typically you can find a good condition used tank which is in good hydro (very important or else nobody will fill the tank) for around $100. If you want a new tank they will typically run around $140 and I would suggest ansgear.com One note on hydro testing, ask what the hydro date is or find it in a photo, it should be in a month/year format like 01/14 for January 2014, simply add 5 years to the date and you will know when the next time it needs to be tested is. Also, if a tank is 15 years old it is dead, you can not have it tested and you will never be able to use it again. Tanks all have "born dates" stamped on them somewhere, just make sure it is less than 10 years old and you will be fine (leave room for another hydro test to happen)
Water cycle is often referred as hydro-logic cycle. It is a cyclic process.
