2.5 INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
USE OF PRESSURE
EQUIPMENT
To ensure the safe operation of pressure
equipments, the user must conform strictly to the
following:
1. The equipment must only be operated within
the temperature and pressure limits stated
on the manufacturers name/data plate.
2. No welding is allowed on the shell and end
caps.
3. The equipment must not be stored in badly
ventilated spaces, near a heat source or
inflammable substances.
4. Vibration must be eliminated from the equip-
ment to prevent fatigue failure.
5. An internal inspection must be carried out at
12 month intervals to check for pressure
equipment corrosion. The actual wall thick-
ness of the tower after corrosion should not
be less than the data indicated on the chart
located on the side on the tower.
6. Condensate drains should be checked for
operation every day to prevent a build up of
condensate in the pressure equipment.
7. The maximum working pressure stated on
the manufacturers data plate must not be
exceeded.
8. All documentation supplied with the equip-
ment (manual, declaration of conformity etc.)
must be kept for future reference.
