E-Mail:1 - Safety Considerations
Read this manual before operating the equipment.
Please observe all safety rules in operating this equipment. The pressure ratings of the Echometer gas gun and
all fittings, hoses, etc. should always exceed actual well pressure. Because the casing pressure normally increases
during a build-up test, caution should be exercised that the well pressure does not exceed equipment pressure
ratings.
Do not use worn or corroded parts. A used or corroded fitting may not withstand original pressure rating.
All safety precautions cannot be given herein. Please refer to all applicable safety manuals, bulletins, etc.
relating to pressure, metal characteristics, temperature effects, corrosion, wear, electrical properties, gas
properties, etc. before operating this equipment.
The tests should not be undertaken if the operator, the test equipment and the well are not in conditions to
operate safely. This equipment should not be used if the operator is tired, ill or under the influence of alcohol,
drugs or medication.
