Safety Notes
Danger!
4.2.1 General
The iGC may contain fluid or gas under pressure and electrical systems at potentially
hazardous voltages.
All installation, operation, maintenance and repair works must be carried out by
competent personnel.
The installation of the iGC and associated components is fully the responsibility of
the user.
The iGC shall be installed, commissioned, operated and maintained in accordance
with this instruction manual, including staying within the maximum operating
conditions given in Appendix A - iGC Supply Specification. Failure to do so may lead
to safety hazards or equipment failure.
Before starting installation, commissioning, operation or maintenance of the iGC,
personnel should read and understand all relevant sections of this manual.
Any queries, comments or suggestions regarding the content of this manual or the
safe installation, operation or maintenance of the iGC should be referred to Tritech.
Caution!
4.2.2 Pressure
If a seal has failed AND then acts as a one-way check during flooding, it is possible
that pressurised fluid and gas has been trapped inside the iGC pressure vessel. This
may be indicated by one or more of the following:
The iGC has ceased to function after flooding;
A water-ingress alarm has been generated;
If the iGC is shaken fluid can be heard or felt moving around inside the housing;
During removal, the pressure dome is very tight on its threads;
During removal of the pressure dome there is fluid leakage at the joint.
The pressure housing has been designed so that the main seal will cease to function
whilst there is still sufficient thread engagement to prevent the components from
flying apart. The correct procedure for disassembly is given in Section 11 –
Maintenance.
