Warning
Hazard of asphyxiation
Whenever entering confined spaces there is a danger of death or serious
injury by asphyxiation.
D
Make sure the confined spaces are properly ventilated before personnel
enter.
D
Make sure a person outside of the confined space supervises the work.
D
Obey the look--out/tag--out and permit to work procedures.
D
Make sure escape routes are available and not blocked.
Reminder
SF
6
envelopes are at rated pressure following the SF
6
gas filling operation.
Parameters
Take note of parameters below :
D
site altitude, in meters,
D
atmospheric pressure of site in hPa,
D
site temperature in
°
C.
Checking SF
6
gas
SF
6
pressure values must obligatorily be read on the pressure inspection
gauge (tooling). Pay no attention to indications given by the dial densimeter
on thefilling control block (where applicable) ; it is not accurate enough for this
inspection.
The table below gives the steps of checking :
Step
Action
Comment
1
Measure SF
6
gas pressure by
means of the pressure inspection
gauge (tooling)
Follow the instructions given in
module ”Filling with SF
6
gas”.
2
Correct pressure found.
Follow the instructions given in
module ”SF
6
gas monitoring”.

humidity level
The SF
6
humidity level need not be known as the equipment is fitted with mo-
lecular sieves in sufficient numbers to give a dew point lower than, or equal
to, 0
°
C at an ambient temperature of 20
°
C, for an apparatus filled to its rated
pressure for 2 or 3 months.
