3. General
•
These instructions must be carefully read before any work involving products supplied by
IGEMA is undertaken.
•
The installation procedure is a critical stage in a life of any device and care should be taken
to avoid damage to the sample cooler or equipment.
•
IGEMA sample coolers are designed to cool samples of boiler water or steam for analysis.
They prevent steam flashing-off from hot pressurized liquid samples, which can be
dangerous and will result in an incorrect water sample.
3.1 Note
•
Current regional safety regulations should be taken in to account and followed, while doing
the installation and maintenance work.
•
Handling, installation and maintenance work must be carried out by trained personnel. A
supervisor must follow and check all activities.
•
For the problems that cannot be solve with the help of this instructions, please contact the
supplier or the manufacturer.
•
The manufacturer reserves the right to change the design and material of this product
without notice.
3.2 General Safety Instructions
➢
If malfunction of any other equipment or system operation failure may result in a dangerous
overpressure, over temperature or even vacuum condition, a safety device must be
included in the system to prevent such situations.
➢
Do not touch the equipment without appropriate protection during working operation
because it may conduct heat if the used fluid is at high temperature.
➢
Before starting maintenance be sure that the equipment is not pressurized or hot. Even if
upstream and downstream isolating valves have been closed care should be taken since
fluid under pressure may be trapped between them.
➢
The equipment must be used within the working temperature and pressure limits laid
down for them, otherwise they may fail (refer to nameplate and/or IS- Information Sheet).
