5. OPERATING PROCEDURE
SUB-DUCT INTEGRITY AND LUBRICATION
Sub-duct integrity and lubrication is entirely the responsibility of the operator.
1. Ensure that the sub-duct is fully prepared for use i.e.:
Fully connected
Pressure tested
Cable exit retaining device fitted
lubricated (if required)
VERIFYING AIR FLOW AND LUBRICATION (IF RE-
QUIRED)
2. Clean the air chamber with a dry cloth, fit the cor-
rect size cable seal collet, sub-duct seal collets and
sub-duct clamp collets refer to sections 8 & 9 and ap-
pendices 7 & 8 for further details. The collet with the
horizontal “O” Ring grooves is fitted into the base of
the air chamber and secured with a cap screw. Refit
the radial seal cords.
3. Open the sub-duct clamp and place the sub-duct
into the sub-duct seal collet and sub-duct clamp collet.
Ensure the sub-duct is fully engaged into the sub-duct
seal collet.
4. Clamp the sub-duct and tighten the two retaining
nuts just enough to secure the duct. (Over tightening
could strip the threads on the clamps)
