Consolidated 19000 Series Safety Relief Valve Instruction Manual

Proper installation and start-up is essential to the safe and reliable operation of all valve
products. The relevant procedures recommended by Baker Hughes, and described in
these instructions, are effective methods of performing the required tasks.
It is important to note that these instructions contain various “safety messages” which
should be carefully read in order to minimize the risk of personal injury, or the possibility
that improper procedures will be followed which may damage the involved Baker
Hughes product, or render it unsafe. It is also important to understand that these “safety
messages” are not exhaustive. Baker Hughes cannot possibly know, evaluate, and
advise any customer of all of the conceivable ways in which tasks might be performed,
or of the possible hazardous consequences of each way. Consequently, Baker Hughes
has not undertaken any such broad evaluation and, thus, anyone who uses a procedure
and/or tool, which is not recommended by Baker Hughes, or deviates from Baker Hughes
recommendations, must be thoroughly satisfied that neither personal safety, nor valve
safety, will be jeopardized by the method and/or tools selected. Contact Baker Hughes if
there are any questions relative to tools/ methods.
The installation and start-up of valves and/or valve products may involve proximity to
fluids at extremely high pressure and/or temperature. Consequently, every precaution
should be taken to prevent injury to personnel during the performance of any procedure.
These precautions should consist of, but are not limited to, ear drum protection, eye
protection, and the use of protective clothing, (i.e., gloves, etc.) when personnel are
in, or around, a valve work area. Due to the various circumstances and conditions in
which these operations may be performed on Baker Hughes products, and the possible
hazardous consequences of each way, Baker Hughes cannot possibly evaluate all
conditions that might injure personnel or equipment. Nevertheless, Baker Hughes does
offer certain Safety Alerts, listed in Section II, for customer information only.
It is the responsibility of the purchaser or user of Consolidated valves/ equipment to
adequately train all personnel who will be working with the involved valves/equipment.
For more information on training schedules, please contact your local Green Tag
Center. Further, prior to working with the involved valves/equipment, personnel who
are to perform such work should become thoroughly familiar with the contents of these
instructions.
