1. Ensure the heater safety relief valve outlet and connections on the DA tank are piped to a
safe catch tank. The catch tank must be appropriately sized based on the system volume and
conguration.
2. Under normal operating conditions, the catch tank should be empty. Fluid that is expelled into
the tank should not be reintroduced into the system.
3. Ensure the vent from the catch tank is located and installed in such a manner as to protect
personnel and property from discharge of steam,water, and thermal uid. Vent outlet should be
positioned in a safe location outside of heater room.
a) The range in which readings are expected to fall should
comprise mid-scale on the pressure gauge chosen.
Pressure gauges must be able to withstand overpressure
equal to the rating of the safety relief valves, normally 6.9
barg.
b) Thermometers should read up to 350°C.
