Flow Line Inspection
Weir Oil & Gas strongly recommends performing a flow line inspection to verify that each clamp has been
assembled prior to pressurizing the line. This will require physically inspecting the underside of each clamp to
verify that bolt is within approximately 1/4" of the opening in the bottom threaded clamp. This action will provide
additional verification that any clamps that may have been loosened to allow for adjustment during the
installation process were properly re-tightened.
One way to ensure that an equal amount of torque is being applied to the assembly, the
gap between the
clamp halves must be approximately the same on both sides as shown below
. This is only to be used as
a sanity check after torqueing the assembly. If there is a significant difference in the gap between each side,
the assembly must be corrected per the discussed assembly steps covered in this manual. There is no gauge
for this operation, so it is vital that an experienced technician adhere to this manual and apply the correct
assembly procedure.
