PREPARATION & PRE-WORK ACTIVITES

1. The site Supervisor will be notified of the staff due on the site for the duration of the installation.
   
2. Volumes of LINEVU OMMs (available on the Portal) should be read in full and any queries should be directed to Process Vision engineer prior to site visit.
   
3. All site-based preparations should be made prior to installation of LineVu Discovery Study. There is a reliance on customer site personnel to advise correct equipment positioning, routing etc and site rules/protocols.
   
4. Inform the allocated PVL engineer of the schedule of work.
   
5. Scaffolding or platforms may be required during installation, this is a site specification decision, and a local assessment should be made in advance of the installation.
   
6. Site work permits should be sought according to site standards where appropriate.
   

WORK ACTIVITES

Assuming the installation requires a 1” NPT tapping point utilising the provided 3” RTJ #900 to 1” NPT flange adapter.

1. Confirm all components have been accounted for and are present for the installation. (SPECIAL TOOLS, MATERIALS, AND EQUIPMENT)
2. Brief CPs (Competent Person) of work to be carried out. All parties involved.

PRE-INSTALLATION TESTING

1. Position the LineVu unit next to the Discovery unit within a defined Safe Area (not classified as hazardous).
2. Insert the activated SIM card into the slot in the Discovery unit. 
   

   SimCard install 01

   SimCard install 02

   SimCard install 03

   SimCard install 04

   
   
3. Remove antenna dust caps and store in the foam tray and attach the antennas to the Discovery unit.
4. Connect the 24V adapter to the mains power supply.
5. Plug the 24V cable into the Discovery unit.
6. Using the RJ45 S/FTP >CAT6A Crimp Tool terminate the ethernet cable with RJ45 CAT6A S/FTP Crimp. 
7. Connect the Ethernet cable to the LineVu unit, connecting the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Discovery unit.
8. If required by LineVu unit model, connect the power cable to the LineVu unit, connecting the other end of the power cable to the Discovery unit.
9. Press the power button on the Discovery unit (the ring around the button should light up) 
   

CAUTION: this will energise the LineVu

1. Verify that the light on the LineVu unit is on and power is being received from the Discovery unit.
   
2. If the Discovery unit does not automatically start, press the PC button on the Discovery unit and wait for it to start up and enter Windows.
   
3. Inform the remote engineer of the system status and wait for them to complete the commissioning process.
   
4. Once the remote engineer confirms that the system is working, proceed to shut down Windows.
   
5. Press the PC button, then press Enter to initiate shutdown.
   
6. After the screen goes black, press the power button to turn off the Discovery unit.
   
7. Disconnect the Ethernet cables (and power if necessary) from both the Discovery unit and the LineVu unit.

LINEVU INSTALLATION

1. Position the LineVu unit near the intended tapping point, taking care not to damage the lower flange. 
   

   CAUTION: At this stage, the optics of the LineVu are exposed and care should be taken to keep this area clean.

2. Place the Discovery Unit and Ethernet Cable Reel in the designated safe area.
3. Release the brake on the cable reel(s) and run the reel’s cable(s) from the Discovery Unit to the LineVu location, avoiding high traffic areas. Leave extra cable at the LineVu end to allow for a section to be coiled up, facilitating easy removal of the LineVu at a later stage.
   

   CAUTION: Discovery Study System Cables are double sheathed and are NOT armoured.

4. Apply PTFE tape to both ends of the provided 1” NPT Blackened Hex Adapter, ensuring the tape is wrapped in the opposite direction to the rotation of the threads.  
   

   CAUTION: Ensure no PTFE is present in the through bore of the Hex Adapter as this will obstruct the view.

5. Install the provided 1” NPT Blackened Hex Adapter into the existing tapping point valve, torqueing it to site specifications.
   
6. Position the provided 3” RTJ #900 to 1” NPT flange adapter onto the exposed 1” NPT thread of the previously installed 1” NPT Blackened Hex Adapter, and torque it to site specifications.
   
7. Install the provided bleed valve onto the flange adapter using the Teflon tape and ensure it is isolated.
   
8. Prepare and clean the groove in preparation for the installation of the RTJ gasket.
   
9. Place the RTJ R31 Oval Gasket into the 3” RTJ #900 to 1” NPT flange adapter.
   
10. Using the optical cleaning wipe, ensure the sapphire window on the LineVu is clear of obstructions and possible contaminant. 
    
11. Lift and position the LineVu over the previously installed flange. Ensuring correct orientation as defined in the applicable OMM.  
    
    
    
    
    
12. Using the studs, washers, and nuts, complete the installation of the LineVu according to site specifications. (The bolt torque should be in accordance with the appropriate ASTM torque chart/site standard.) 
    

    SUGGESTED TORQUE PROCEDURE •       Torque bolts and nuts in a “CRISS-CROSS” sequence using a minimum of three torqueing passes and the maximum bolt stress as defined.  •       PASS 1: Torque to a maximum of 30% of the final torque value in accordance with the torque sequence.  •       PASS 2: Torque to a maximum of 60% of the final torque value.  •       PASS 3: Torque to the final torque value (100%). After the three basic torque passes are completed, repeat torqueing the nuts at least once using the final torque in a “CRISSCROSS” manner until no further rotation of the nut is observed.

    
    
13. Use a 6mm Hex Wrench to remove the LineVu lid. 
    

    CAUTION: At this stage, the safety critical flame paths are now exposed, and extreme care should be taken to avoid damaging the exposed surfaces.

14. Use a 10mm Hex Wrench to remove a blanking gland(s) where appropriate for the cable entry.
    
15. Store the removed blanking gland(s) as they will be required during system removal.
    
16. If the Sunshade is to be fitted, it is important to select an appropriate entry port so the shade can be mounted. (It is suggested at this stage to offer the Sunshade up to establish the optimum port)
    
17. Install the gland(s) assembly, leaving sufficient cable inside the terminal enclosure for termination.
    
18. Using the RJ45 S/FTP > CAT6A Crimp Tool, terminate the Ethernet cable with an RJ45 CAT6A S/FTP crimp.
    
19. If required by LineVu unit model, terminate the power cable with a bootlace ferrule.
    
20. Plug the terminated Ethernet cable into the termination board located in the terminal enclosure of the LineVu.
    
21. If required by LineVu unit model, screw the terminated power cables into the power socket located on the termination board located in the terminal enclosure of the LineVu. 
    

    CAUTION: Ensure the ethernet cable is not energised at this stage.

22. Using a 6mm hex wrench, position and affix the lid of the LineVu. Press down on the lid evenly, ensuring no contamination is present on either side of the flame path. Tighten the lid bolts in a star pattern.
    
23. Following site specifications, attach an earthing (grounding) cable to the identified earthing (grounding) stud located on the side of the LineVu.
    
24. Ensure the electrical installation complies with site specifications and adheres to the hazardous area certification. (Electrical CP to complete)
    
25. Install the bracing system using the provided instructions.
    
26. Perform required site leak tests on the joint.
    
27. Open the isolation valve gradually, starting with a slight opening to equalize the pressure between the LineVu and the isolation valve. Then, fully open the valve. 
    

    CAUTION: Rapid equalisation can result in contamination being deposited onto the clean sapphire window, during normal operation the dead leg mitigates against this contamination.

DISCOVERY INSTALLATION

1. Inform the PVL engineer that the system is ready for verification.
2. Once the PVL engineer has confirmed that everything is working, the installation is complete.
