Installation and maintenance:
The receiver must be installed in neutral, normal and current atmosphere and in places which are not likely to involve a
rise in temperature of the device exceeding the temperature of service; it must be connected to ground. Access for
check must be easy.
Incidents are always possible (exhaust of valve, leakage on drain or valve, etc...) so it's better to avoid the installation of
a device in an attended site, or near fragile devices.
To check its interior state, the receiver must be visited regularly and according to the regulations in force in the country
where it is installed.
A depth control must be practiced regularly with adequate means (ultrasound, magnetic...).
Fixing and fastening of receivers must be made while taking care to avoid all forced and tensions and to damp out all
vibrations, even non-visible.
The base of the receiver will have to support the weight of the receiver, including in situation of tests.
In performing inspections, visits and periodical tests, we remind users to comply with the legislation in force where the
tanks are in use in their country.
The equipment must not be modified without the manufacturer's prior approval.
In complement of the indications hereafter, refer to the instruction manual provided with each receiver.
The receivers and their accessories must be protected from freezing and the fire.
Use adequate handling and lifting system and take care not to damage the receiver or its components.
Before proceeding to the inspection and/or maintenance operations on the receiver and its components, make sure that
this one is completely drained (internal pressure equal to the atmospheric pressure).
Not to carry out a welding or modifications (drilling, heating with a flame,…) on the parts under pressure of the receiver.
The connection of the receiver with the installation must be carried out with flexible connections in order to avoid all
vibrations.
Take care that the receiver is always provided with its security accessories and its inspecting devices.
In the event of damage of the device, check by calling upon a specialist, that the receiver can be used in full safety.
