9.4 Site Assessment Checklists
The following site assessment checklists are intended to act as a tool in assessing
the potential risks that must be managed at an installation site. The checklists are not
intended to provide an exhaustive list of all risk factors, but rather to indicate some
of the most common risks.
The first two checklists indicate environmental factors that may result in
malfunctioning or failing equipment if the installation site is not appropriately
deployed and maintained to counteract the detrimental effects of the environment.
For each risk factor that is present, you must consider how to best design the
installation site to avoid the negative effects of the risk factor. For the final checklist,
any question that is answered in the negative indicates that measures must be taken
to correct the installation site appropriately to reduce the risk of equipment damage.
9.4.1 Seasonal Influences
Is the installation site in an area with the potential to experience any of these
seasonal influences?
9.4.2 Local Risk Factors
Is the local surrounding environment of the installation site in proximity to possible
sources of contaminants or other risk factors that may cause or accelerate
corrosion?
