Disassembling the device
Risk of serious injury posed by pressurized components moving in an uncontrolled manner
when handled improperly.
If not handled properly or in the event of a defect, gas can escape from pressurized compo-
nents under high pressure and cause serious injuries and even death. Before you start work-
ing on these components:
Close all connections leading to the gas-carrying line.
Establish a depressurized status. Residual amounts of energy must be depressurized as
well.
