Decommissioning and disassembly
16 Decommissioning and
disassembly
Risk of electric shock.
Before disconnecting live wires, switch off the
power supply at the actuator and protect it
against unintentional reconnection.
Risk of personal injury due to residual pro-
cess medium in the valve.
While working on the valve, residual process
medium can escape and, depending on its
properties, may lead to personal injury, e.g.
(chemical) burns.
Wear protective clothing, safety gloves and
eyewear.
Risk of burn injuries due to hot or cold com-
ponents and pipeline.
Valve components and the pipeline may be-
come very hot or cold. Risk of burn injuries.
− Allow components and pipelines to cool
down or heat up.
− Wear protective clothing and safety gloves.
