1.7 Pressure systems

Ensure that any pressure is isolated and safely vented to atmospheric pressure.

Consider double isolation (double block and bleed) and the locking or labelling of 

closed valves. Do not assume that the system has depressurised even when the 

pressure gauge indicates zero.

1.8 Temperature

Allow time for temperature to normalise after isolation to avoid danger of burns.

1.9 Tools and consumables

Before starting work ensure that you have suitable tools and / or consumables 

available. Use only genuine Spirax Sarco replacement parts.

1.10 Protective clothing

Consider whether you and / or others in the vicinity require any protective clothing 

to protect against the hazards of, for example, chemicals, high / low temperature, 

radiation, noise, falling objects, and dangers to eyes and face.

1.11 Permits to work

All work must be carried out or be supervised by a suitably competent person.

Installation and operating personnel should be trained in the correct use of the 

product according to the Installation and Maintenance Instructions.

Where a formal 'permit to work' system is in force it must be complied with. Where 

there is no such system, it is recommended that a responsible person should know 

what work is going on and, where necessary, arrange to have an assistant whose 

primary responsibility is safety.

Post 'warning notices' if necessary.

1.12 Handling

Manual handling of large and / or heavy products may present a risk of injury. Lifting, 

pushing, pulling, carrying or supporting a load by bodily force can cause injury 

particularly to the back. You are advised to assess the risks taking into account the 

task, the individual, the load and the working environment and use the appropriate 

handling method depending on the circumstances of the work being done.

1.13 Residual hazards

In normal use the external surface of the product may be very hot. If used at the 

maximum permitted operating conditions the surface temperature of these products 

may reach temperatures of 260 °C (500 °F). 

These products are not self-draining. Take due care when dismantling or removing 

them from an installation (refer to 'Maintenance instructions').

1.14 Freezing

Provision must be made to protect products which are not self-draining against frost 

damage in environments where they may be exposed to temperatures below freezing 

point.
