1. Functional System Description
1.1. GeneralThe purpose of the gas-freeing cover is to prevent the passage of flames into the cargo tanks during the
gas-freeing procedure.
1.2. FunctionUnder normal conditions there is free venting throughout the gas-freeing cover. If an ignition occurs
outside the tank space, the flames will be quenched in the flame trap.
1.3. CapacityThe gas-freeing covers capacity is rated in standard air. For convention to maximum loading rates for
different cargoes, please refer to the MASTERS LOADING CHART as per latest revision of IMO MSC/Circ.
731.
2. Operating Instructions
2.1. InstallationRemove all packing material
Installation is accomplished by bolting the gas-freeing cover flange to the vent pipe mating flange withsuitable gasket between.
As per SOLAS 1974, Reg 59 + 62, the cover shall be located 2 m above the cargo deck level, and thedischarge from the open cover shall be vertically upwards having an exit velocity of at least 20 m/sec.
2.2. OperationDuring gas-freeing the cover is open. When the hydrocarbon vapour concentration in the tank is reducedto less than 2% by volume, venting may also be at the cargo deck level. After gas-freeing, the cover isclosed and the wing nut tightened. Ref. SOLAS 1974 Regulation II-2/59.2.1.
CAUTION! If the gas-freeing cover has been exposed for an explosion, the cover must beinspected for any damage.
