Assembly of Fulton Multi-Skid Engineered Systems
Adhere to the following for multi-skid engineered systems:
1. Refer to the Fulton mechanical/electrical drawings during assembly.
2. Ensure that the equipment orientation allows for operation interface
and maintenance.
3. Align skids as shown in the drawings, ensuring that the skid fasteners
are matched.
4. Ensure the skids are leveled and fasten the skids together using the
supplied bolts. The skids should be leveled front to back, side to side
and corner to corner. Failure to properly level the skids will result in
piping misalignment. A level or laser level should be used to verify
skid alignment (when a standard level is used, the length should be
appropriate for the skid) If assembling multi-component support
stands, attach sections using the supplied bolts through the tank
frame mounting plates. These should be hand tight until all piping has
been assembled and tightened.
5. Connect the piping between skids by matching the union connections
and/or fl ange stamps and tightening. Refer to the appropriate
instructions to tighten the fl anges and required torque specifi cations.
Support pipe runs as required.
6. Ensure that a low point drain is installed in the piping.
7. Connect the conduit runs between skids and tighten the conduit
connectors.
8. Locate the supplied wiring for the equipment and pull wiring through
the appropriate conduit runs. Electrical wires are labeled for easy
landing. Connect all wiring per the Fulton supplied electrical drawing.
9. If a header is supplied, mount the header as shown in the mechanical
drawing.
NOTE: For piping supplied in sections, make up and connect hand tight until
all sections are in place to ensure sections align properly. Sections are match
marked for reassembly.
10. Tighten all connections.
11. Pneumatically test the piping (at 15 psig maximum) prior to fi lling the
system.
12. Check bolts and connections for tightness after the fi rst heat up cycle.
Retorquing may be required.
