WARNING
Avoid personal injury or damage to property from sudden release of pressure or
uncontrolled process fluid. Before starting installation on, or removal from, existing in-field
equipment:
•
Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any
installation or removal operations to avoid personal injury.
•
Follow all warnings, cautions, notes, and instruction procedures provided in the
Instruction Manuals for all applicable equipment to ensure hazardous conditions
are not created.
•
If mounting onto or removing from a valve, use bypass valves or completely shut
off the process to isolate the valve from process pressure. Relieve process pressure
on both sides of the valve. Drain the process media from both sides of the valve.
•
If mounting onto or removing from an actuator casing, vent the power actuator
loading pressure.
•
If mounting onto or removing from other equipment containing process pressure
or process fluid, relieve and isolate the equipment from process pressure and drain
process media.
•
Use lock-out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while
you work on the equipment.
•
Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must
be taken to protect against process media.
