• Make sure that no a ir remains inside the heat exchanger.
• Safety valves shall be installed according to current pressure vessel regulations.
• It is recommended that protection sheets are used to cover the plate pack. P rotect against
the leakage of hot or aggressive fl uids and the hot plate pack.
• If the heat exchanger surface temperature is expected to be hot or cold, take protective
action s, such as insulate the heat exchanger, to avo id risk for personnel injuries. Always
ensure that required actions ar e ac cording to local regu lations.
