Installing a device
This topic covers installation of a device after the service valve is mounted on the fitting
and retaining pressure from the pipe. Consult the monitoring device user manual for
instructions on how to service or replace service valves.

balanced so that the device pressure has completely filled the retriever before the
plug is removed from the fitting, with back pressure ( use forced pressure
equalization as described in
WARNING
Risk to Personnel and Equipment: If the retrieval tool is not properly balanced,
corrosive gas or liquid can spill out and cause serious injury. Before unscrewing
the plug, make sure that the tool is properly pressure balanced through forced
pressure equalization.
a) A pump (or another sort of pressure vessel) is connected to the bleed off
valve on the retriever. Open the bleed valve and pressurize the retriever to a
pressure (minimum ≈145 psi (10 bar)) above actual pipe pressure.
b) Close the bleed valve to retain the pressure inside the retrieval tool.
Disconnect the pump from the bleed valve.
c) With the pilot body engaged onto the plug hexagon, unscrew the plug 2 full
turns in a counterclockwise direction.
d) Stop and confirm that the pressure on the retriever pressure gauge is similar
to the pipe pressure.
e) When balanced pressure is confirmed, continue to unscrew the plug from
the fitting (13 up to 15 turns).
