project specification and complies with the requirements of the relevant parts of the quality
systems standard ISO 9000.

The CONTRACTOR shall ensure that his personnel have been trained to perform the
various specialist tasks associated with the installation, testing and pre-commissioning of
the equipment identified in the document, including the CONTRACTOR’s scope of supply,
such as, compression fittings and cable glands. The CONTRACTOR shall submit up to
date evidence of this expertise.

4.2 Workmanship, Tidiness and Safety

Phase 1
INSTRUMENT INSTALLATION AND TESTING SPECIFICATION

The CONTRACTOR shall not allow rubbish and scrap materials from his operations to
remain on the site or be retained in any piece of finished work. Such rubbish and scrap
shall be collected daily and be deposited in places approved by the Purchaser.

The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for protecting installed equipment from damage
and pilferage and shall ensure that all covers, caps, screws and weather protection, etc.,
are replaced at the end of each working day.

Particular attention shall be paid to some types of fire & gas detectors, which shall not be
exposed to atmosphere or contamination, until ready for loop energisation.

Materials and equipment not immediately required shall be adequately protected and stored
at approved storage locations until required.

Only the best trade practises shall be used, and all work shall be performed to the
satisfaction of the Purchaser who shall be consulted on any point requiring clarification. The
CONTRACTOR is free to suggest to the Purchaser alternative methods for the execution of
the work where this would result in improvement.

instrumentation and materials, and for the provision of adequate labour and facilities to
carry out this function.

The CONTRACTOR shall ascertain whether all materials received by him are in good
working order and shall report any defects immediately to the Purchaser. Thereafter, the
CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the safekeeping and protection of this material until
the purchaser accepts the installation. Any loss or damage incurred during this period shall
be chargeable to the CONTRACTOR.

Where instruments have been removed from the panel for transportation, the
CONTRACTOR shall replace these in the panel and re-connect where necessary, unless
this function is part of the panel fabricator’s responsibility.

The CONTRACTOR shall ensure that the equipment suppliers’ recommendations for the
preservation and maintenance of all equipment are implemented immediately the
equipment is received. Where equipment may remain crated for an extended period, the
equipment supplier shall be advised to ensure that adequate preservation materials are
provided.

The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for reviewing equipment manufacturer’s


information as necessary in order to be completely familiar with the equipment to be
installed.

INSTRUMENT INSTALLATION AND TESTING SPECIFICATION

Exact locations of secondary instrumentation items such as transmitters, local panels,


junction boxes, etc., shall be determined during construction and installed in accordance
with the installation specification and its referenced documents.

In general, instruments shall be visible and accessible, from grade, platform or permanent
walkway, to allow adjustment and maintenance (e.g., instrument data plates, gauges, zero
and span adjustments and valve manifolds) without the use of ladders or scaffolding.
Instruments shall be located at a practical height (normally 1200mm above grade).

Instruments shall be located away from heated surfaces (at least 600mm) and installation
protected from heat damage.

Instruments shall be located above grade or platform as indicated on the layout drawings
and shall be positioned so as not to cause obstruction to access ways.

Where practicable, instruments shall be close coupled to the process tapping. Excluding
remote mounted applications, instruments shall be mounted as near as practical to the
process connection.

Where instruments are required to be installed remotely from its associated process
tapping isolation valve, the length of impulse lines shall be kept to a minimum consistent
with speed of response and the possibility of blockage and mechanical damage. Heavy
equipment such as large control valves, relief valves and flow meters shall be provided with
adequate free space for maintenance and removal.
