14.7.213.7.2
Possible Hazards
-
Water within the gland supply system may be at elevated pressure, enough to cause
eye damage if accidentally directed into the eye
-
Gland water supply is not likely potable water hence should not be ingested or
allowed to come into contact with the face
14.7.313.7.3
Installation
1. Ensure the gland supply is depressurised and the pump is not running
2. The pressure transducer and flow meter must be installed in series with the gland
water supply
3. Fittings to install the pressure and flow sensors are site specific and not supplied.
These should have been identified in the site survey and purchased ahead of
time. This will include a suitable T fitting for the pressure sensor.
4. The suggested installation location is after an isolation valve (shown in image
below).
5. Connect pressure and flow sensors to main cable harness.
6. Wrap connector interfaces with protective tape (Nitto No.15).
