Hi All.
API 1540 specifies that 'Means of carrying out regular checks of the buoyancy of these units must be provided.' with regards to floating suctions.
Could a visual inspection of the float through the manhole be classified as complying or is a check cable mandatory? Does anyone know of any instances where a check cable has not been provided?
The supplier has provided the floating suctions without check cables, whereas I thought they were mandatory.
Thanks for all the help so far.
