Instrument must have been purged in accordance with the following:
Any instrument returned to Brooks requires completion of Form RPR003-1,
Brooks Instrument Decontamination Statement, as well as, a Material Safety
Data Sheet (MSDS) for the fluid(s) used in the instrument. This is required
before any Brooks Personnel can begin processing. Copies of the form
can be obtained from any Brooks Instrument location listed above.
2-5 Transit Precautions
To safeguard against damage during transit, transport the instrument to the
installation site in the same container used for transportation from the
factory if circumstances permit.
2-6 Removal from Storage
Upon removal of the instrument from storage, a visual inspection should be
conducted to verify its "as-received" condition. If the instrument has been
subject to storage conditions in excess of those recommended (See
Section 2-3), it should be subjected to a pneumatic pressure test in
accordance with applicable vessel codes.
2-7 Installation
The inlet and outlet connections are identified by the terms "in" and "out".
The control valve may be installed in any attitude. Care must be exercised
to prevent solids from entering the control valve. The internal flow area is very
small and any foreign material entering the control valve will impair the
operation of the needle valve. Inlet and outlet filters should be installed.
