Checking steam trap
DANGER
Risk of explosion if the pipeline to be
tested is carrying voltage.
Before starting the test make sure that
no part of the pipeline is carrying
voltage.
You can achieve this e.g. by earthing the pipeline.
DANGER
Risk of explosion due to spark-over.
Do not use any items in the explosion-
risk area that could generate sparks.
Do not use the supplied file!
Select a steam trap as test object as described
on page 19.
Make sure that the test point is not covered by
paint or dirt.
Be sure to use the same test point that you used
for the last tests.
If necessary, use an identification tag to mark
the test point on the steam trap.
The identification tags help allocating the test
objects to the respective data in the data collector.
You can order more identification tags (stock code
number 389315) from the manufacturer.
Attention!
If the measuring probe does not touch the
trap firmly at the right position and angle
the readings may be incorrect.
Make sure the sensor tip of the
measuring probe touches only a bare
metallic surface.
Make sure the sensor tip touches
always the same test point.
Make sure the sensor tip is
perpendicular to the surface of the
steam trap when it touches the test
point.
