Figure 14. With Clamp Ring Spread 

Door Can Be Opened 

NOTE: The pressure warning lock is not designed 

or intended to be used as a pressure bleed-
down valve and should never be used as such. 

2.3 Closing Procedures 

A. Inspect, clean, and lubricate the O-ring, 

O-ring grooves and sealing surfaces, and the 
pressure warning lock. Replace the O-ring if 
it is damaged. 

WARNING: 

Replace damaged O-rings 
immediately. 

A damaged O-ring will cause 

leakage of gases or fluids that 
can lead to serious injury and 
property damage. 

B.  Push the door firmly shut. Before the clamp 

ring can be closed, the door must be 
completely closed, showing no gap between 
the door face and the hub face. 

C.  Close the clamp ring by pulling the clamp 

ring handle over the top of the closure. Lower 
it fully so that the pressure warning lock 
screw can be inserted through the aligned 
holes in the bars and threaded into its 
bushing. The clamp ring does not use any 
wedging action during closing since the 
clamping surfaces are parallel to the door and 
the hub faces. Do not force the clamp ring 
handle if the clamp ring will not close freely. 
Verify that the door is adjusted properly and 
check for debris. 

NOTE: 

As the clamp ring is closed, the bars 

attached to the back of the clamp ring move 
closer together (Figure 15). When the clamp 
ring is fully closed, the holes in the bars are in 
alignment. If the holes do not overlap, you will 
not be able to thread the pressure warning lock 
screw into the bushing. If the clamp ring 
appears to be closed and the holes still do not 
line up, re-open the clamp ring and check for 
damage and debris. 

 

Figure 15. Holes in Bars Don't Overlap When Clamp 

Ring Handle Is Not in Closed Position 

D.  Install the pressure warning lock screw. Make 

sure it is not cross-threaded into the bushing. 
Tighten hand tight, and then add about one-
eighth of a turn with a small wrench. Do not 
over tighten.
 

 

Figure 16. Pressure Warning Lock in Place 

WARNING: 

Never attempt to pressurize 
vessel until you have made sure 
that door, clamp ring, and 
pressure warning lock are fully 
closed and secured. 

A line spraying fluids or a door 

opening suddenly can result in 
personal injury or property 
damage or both. 

E.  The vessel can now be pressurized to line 

pressure and placed on-stream.
