Decontamination of the Bleed-Air Ducting System disconnected at the Pressure Regulating Valve (PRV) (4000HA1, 4000HA2) with the APU Bleed Pressure
WARNING:
WHILE THE APU OPERATES, DO NOT GO INTO THESE AREAS:
- THE AREA BEHIND THE APU EXHAUST DUCT: 25m (82ft.) REARWARD OF THE DUCT, MORE THAN 3m (10ft.) ABOVE THE GROUND, AND THE WIDTH OF THE HORIZONTAL STABILIZER
- THE AREA AROUND THE APU AIR-INTAKE: 2m (7ft) AROUND THE INTAKE
- THE AREA OF THE OIL-COOLER OUTLET.
WARNING:
BE CAREFUL WHEN THE DUCTS ARE DISCONNECTED THE TEMPERATURE OF THE EXHAUST GASES FROM THE OPEN ENDS OF THE DISCONNECTED DUCTS CAN BE AS HIGH AS 270 DEG.C (518 DEG.F). THE HOT GASES CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
WARNING:
BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU DO WORK ON THE ENGINE AFTER SHUTDOWN. THE ENGINE CAN STAY HOT FOR A LONG TIME. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS INSTRUCTION, INJURY CAN OCCUR.
WARNING:
MAKE SURE THAT THE PNEUMATIC SYSTEM IS DEPRESSURIZED BEFORE YOU START WORK. PRESSURIZED AIR CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONNEL.
WARNING:
ALWAYS USE APPLICABLE GLOVES TO TOUCH HOT PARTS. HOT PARTS CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS.
CAUTION:
MAKE SURE THAT THE AREA AROUND THE APU IS CLEAR BEFORE YOU START THE APU.
TOOLS, EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS IN THE APU COMPARTMENT AND/OR ON THE ACCESS PLATFORM CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE APU WHEN IT OPERATES.
