Take account of the possible effects on the whole expected working system. 

In particular, you must assess any proposed actions and the consequences that may 
result in any other part of the system, you must ensure the system remains safe at all 
times. 

Make sure that the control valve is isolated via shut-off valves to prevent any abrupt 

variations to the system.

YSTEMS

 

Make sure that the pressure is isolated and discharged to the atmospheric pressure in safe 
conditions. Take account of a double insulation (double block and vent) and the blocking or 
the labelling of the closed valves. Do not consider the system depressurized even if the 
pressure gauge indicates zero pressure. The depressurization process should include taking 
the valve through its full stroke, to ensure all pressure is allowed to exhaust to 
atmosphere. 

During the operation the valve is pressurized. Before performing any maintenance 
operation or action on the flanges and closing caps, make sure that the line is 
depressurized (0 bar) and at ambient temperature.
