PMA engineers preparing equipment at a treatment site

Commissioning and handover

Agree the checks and operating records for handing a PTV 1000 measurement over to the site team.

All installation guidance

Confirm the instrument and method

Record the exact model, optical method and reporting units. Check the installed junction box and the connection to the plant system against the agreed instrument schedule.

Confirm stable sample conditions

With the sample flowing, inspect the route for air or interruptions and check the drain. Record the operating conditions used for commissioning so later checks can be compared.

Verify and check the signal

Follow the instrument’s verification procedure and record the result. Confirm that the display and plant system agree on units and that operators can identify an unavailable measurement.

Hand over the records

Give the operations team the instrument details, initial checks, sampling point and maintenance access information. Agree who will investigate a change in readings and how the result will be recorded.
