For a pre-operational check, the contents of the cylinder should not empty in 30 seconds. ✓ Pass ✘ Fail Test the low air warning whistle:* • Open the air cylinder half turn and allow the pressure in the system to stabilise. • Fully open the cylinder and turn back a half turn. • Close the cylinder wheel valve and observe the pressure gauge. • Purge the air slowly at the demand valve and confirm that the low air warning whistle on the pressure gauge operates between 50 – 60 bar. ✓ Pass ✘ Fail If the leak test or low air warning whistle fails, check all the connections and repeat the test. If the system fails three times, withdraw from service and tag out according to organisational procedures. CommentsCommentsSign & DateSignature*Date DD slash MM slash YYYY
