Essential Instructions for Pressure Containing Equipment,
Including the European Union (Directive 2014/68/EU)
When installing the equipment the bolting must
conform to the requirements of ASME B16.5,
paragraph 5.3, and to the material requirements of
ASME B16.5, Table 1B. Gaskets must conform to the
requirements of ASME B16.20.
Although it is not expected for the device to
be used in a service where it would come in to
contact with unstable fluids, it is the end user’s
responsibility to assess any risks and take any
precautions necessary.
It is the end user’s responsibility to ensure that
piping and other attachments connected to the
Brodie instrument do not place adverse stresses
upon it, the design of the instrument has not
been assessed for the effects of traffic, wind or
earthquake loadings.
It is the end user’s responsibility to ensure that the
instrument is mounted when required on suitable
supporting foundations.
It is the end user’s responsibility to install the
device in a well-designed system to avoid potential
hazards such as water hammer, vacuum collapse
or uncontrolled chemical reactions.
It is the end user’s responsibility to provide fire
protection measures and equipment in accordance
with the local regulations.
It is the end user’s responsibility to install suitable
straining and air/gas elimination systems.
The instrument has been designed without
allowance for corrosion or other chemical attack.
The end user should implement a periodic
inspection and maintenance program to ensure
that none of the instruments pressure containing
components have been subject to any corrosion. It
is possible to examine the instrument for evidence
of corrosion through the inlet and the outlet.
When the ambient temperature is below the
minimum operating temperature specified on the
device it is the end user’s responsibility to ensure
that the device is warmed to an appropriated
temperature before being pressurized.
Do not exceed the operating pressure and
temperature limits of the instrument as stamped
on the nameplates.
It is the customer’s responsibility to install this
equipment in a system that provides adequate
over-pressure protection and that limit pressure
surges to 10% of the maximum allowable working
pressure of the instrument.
It is the end user’s responsibility to provide fire
protection measures and equipment in accordance
with the local regulations.
