MAINTENANCE
The VC-LNG is a mechanical device that may become inoperative due to wear, corrosion and ageing
of components. Regular inspections and maintenance are essential for a safe operation.
Daily visual inspections of the vent coupling by trained personnel should be carried out to ensure
proper function. It’s recommended to clean the vent coupling thoroughly with compressed air regularly
in order to remove any debris or contamination.
The vent coupling shall be clean and not show any signs of damage (e. g. dents or sharp edges).
The vent coupling condition shall be thoroughly checked during the annual pump maintenance by
competent personnel. Applicable laws, regulations and Codes of Practice have to be followed.
Vent couplings in unfit condition for use must be immediately replaced.
