1. INTRODUCTION
2.1 OVERVIEW
INTRODUCTION
The ISO Pump has a dual role in its function as a storage and discharge system of
drilled cuttings.
Valve configuration and subsequent operations are unique to these two operating
modes (Storage Mode and Discharge Mode).
As a receptor for the drilled cuttings conveyed from the CCB the ISO Pump will be
stood vertically. Whilst Rig mounted the ISO Pump will be sat directly on a hydraulic
load cell platform (Weigh Frame – WF). The WF provides indication of the actual
weight of material handled by each ISO Pump.
As material is delivered into the ISO Pump the transportation air is separated from
the cuttings and subsequently vented to atmosphere through a 5” vent line.
It shall be noted that all valves and functionality of the ISO Pump is manually
controlled. There are no electrical interfaces with the ISO Pump for standard
operations.
SYSTEM AT REST
When the ISO Pump is at rest in the Reception Mode the status of the valves will be
as follows:
Cuttings will gradually fill the ISO Pump until a predetermined weight is recorded on
the Weight Indicator (WI 85). At this stage cuttings flow is transferred to the next
available and empty ISO Pump.
When the ISO Pump has been filled to the target weight the status of the valves will
be as follows:
The valves will be left in the above positions until the time to discharge the cuttings
from the ISO Pump. This is to ensure the ISO Pump cannot become unintentionally
pressurised whilst at rest.
When loaded with drill cuttings the ISO Pump is reconfigured as a pressure vessel
and as such pneumatically conveys the cuttings to the desired reception point.
Compressed air is introduced into the ISO Pump at strategic positions to enable the
transfer of material from the vessel into the conveying pipe. As with the Storage
Mode the procedures are fully manual and there are no electrical interfaces with the
Rig.
SYSTEM AT REST
When the ISO Pump is at rest in the Discharge Mode the status of the valves will be
as follows:
With the outlet pipe and hose assembly secured to the ISO Pump and this pipeline
fully pressure tested than the following procedure can commence.
The conveying air valve (HV91) is opened and airflow established through the
conveying pipe. An air only pressure drop of between 0.2 – 0.8 barg can be
expected.
When this flow is established then the Cuttings Outlet valve is opened and the Tank
air is initiated via valve (HV 81).
At a material dependant tank pressure material will begin to discharge from the tank.
The line pressure will increase as the line loading improves.
When the ISO Pump is conveying cuttings in the Discharge Mode the status of the
valves will be as follows:
Material will continue to be discharged in this manner until the weight in the ISO
Pump has reached the original zero position.
It shall be noted that during the discharge cycle should there be a need to pause the
material flow then the ISO Pump outlet valve can be opened and closed without
concern.
When the ISO Pump has been emptied of cuttings during in the Discharge Mode the
status of the valves will be as follows:
With the ISO Pump empty the tank and line pressure should both record the same
value.
The air shall be left running for a sufficient period to enable the conveying line to be
completely purged of material. At this point the expected line pressure should be
approximately 0.2 – 0.8 barg.
The vent valve (HV 84) is opened to ensure any residual pressures are vented to
atmosphere.
When the ISO Pump has been emptied of cuttings and all airflows isolated the status
of the valves will be as follows:
Incorporated in the ‘Pulse Air ‘ Manifold on the ISO Pump is a connection point into
which Base Oil can be injected.
• To provide a method whereby oil can be injected at the end of the transfer
period for ‘in-situ’ cleaning of the conveying pipe without the need to
dismantle the system
• Similar to above when conveying materials that tend to adhere to and coat the
inside of the pipe, therefore reducing the effective bore diameter. It is possible
to stop the conveying cycle and inject base oil in to the conveying line to clean
it out and return to the clean line flow condition of 0.2-.08 barg pressure
• To enable the interior of the vessel to be coated with a fine film of oil prior to
first use by operating the pulse air system for 10 cycles with oil injection with
the vessel vent open.
SECTION 3
ISOPUMP
IMPORTANT
The ISOPump conveying vessel is, for insurance purposes, classed as a pressure
vessel.
The ISOPump must be connected to an air supply that has a suitable safety valve
complying with BS 6759 Part 2, or similar equivalent standard and adjusted so that
air is allowed to escape as soon as the safe working pressure has been exceeded.
The valve should be capable of discharging more air than the system can supply to
the receiver.
LIFTING PROCEDURE
All lifting equipment supplied i.e. shackles, slings and attachments are of adequate
strength and stability for lifting the ISOPump having particular regard to the stress
induced at it’s mounting and fixing point.
Attached lifting shackles and lifting points welded to framework have been tested to
the required Safe Working Load (SWL) by an approved third party on behalf of Clyde
Materials Handling.
Only vertical or horizontal lifts may be used when transferring ISOPumps from PSV
to rig, or vice versa. The rotational lift should only be utilised either on shore or on
rig to rotate the ISOPump into position.
The ISOPump has been designed and tested to accommodate offshore lifts, PSV to
rig, when empty, and onshore lifts when full to a maximum of 32,500kg.
Load Specification
OPERATION
Material enters the ISOPump through one of three inlets.
i. DN 125 (5”) material inlet pipe – situated on the left hand side of the
ISOPump, this is used to fill the vessel when the unit stands vertically.
ii. DN 125 (5”) material inlet / vent pipe – situated on the right hand side of the
ISOPump, this is used as an alternative to the main material inlet pipe.
iii. DN 150 (6”) material inlet branch – situated in the dished end between the
two DN 125 (5”0 branches, this si used to fill the vessel when the unit is
mounted horizontally.
Material discharge from the ISOPump is through a discharge valve mounted directly
onto the bend at the bottom of the vessel’s conical section.
All material inlet and outlet connections, with the exception of the DN150 branch for
horizontal feed, are grooved to accept a grooved pipe coupling. The DN 150 (6”)
branch has an ASA 150lb flange and blanking flange.
The conveying air distribution manifold controls the amount of air entering the
ISOPump vessel and conveying line. DN 50 (2”) ‘snaplock’ connectors are
employed to join the conveying air distribution manifold to the Pressure Regulator
Unit (PRU) for a single ISOPump, or to the air header assembly for a multiple
ISOPump installation.
During transportation of the ISOPump, all inlets and outlets will be blanked off to
prevent material escaping, using blanks suitable for the couplings which are attached
with chains so they cannot be lost.
On a single ISOPump installation, the material feed hose is connected directly from
the CCB on a rig installation, or from another ISOPump on a rig to boat transfer.
Multiple ISOPump installations utilise a convey pipe manifold, allowing the operator
to select which vessel is to be filled by positioning the R Valves to either through or
divert.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Daily Maintenance
It shall be noted that as with the CCB the daily system check is an attempt to identify
the possible onset of component failure before the event affects system performance
and ultimately impacts the overall system reliability.
Unlike the weekly and monthly maintenance routines there are no planned activities
for this regime. The check, assuming a live operational system, is intended to verify
the operational health of the equipment with corrective actions only taking place
should problems or the onset of possible component failure be identified.
In order for the following checklist to be purposefully administered the system should
ideally be operational. If so a combination of pressure readings, pressure settings
and valve functionality tests will be read or determined.
1 Pressure Regulator setting should be See P&ID Drawing for any amendment to
approximately: this set value.

The following maintenance is required for long term rental machines else this
maintenance shall only be conducted at the relevant time when the units are
returned to shore between rentals.
Check Cuttings Discharge Valve shafts for wear and replace bearings and
seals as described in section 3 of the O&M Manual if required.
Inspect cylinder shaft for score marks scratches, pitting, rust etc. as this can
lead to premature failure of cylinder seals.
All manifold pipes will be inspected for damage and any corrosion.
Flexible hoses will be inspected for any signs of degradation of the hose wall,
which is manufactured from a nitrile rubber. Degradation will include wall
softening, an increase in outside hose diameter or delamination of the hose
fabric.
Valves will inspected for operational performance and the head will be removed
to assess the condition of the valve seat and seal.
Door seal to be checked for failure or degradation that would result in loss of
operating pressure whilst discharging from the ISOPumps. The swing bolts to

Section 1 – INTRODUCTION
The system is similar in principle to the air sweeps fitted to the CCB pressure
vessel and is fitted to all new build ISO pumps and retro fitted to the existing
fleet as required.
The system can also be fitted to the underside of the material fall line of feed
chutes and around feed hoppers to assist in the migration of material to the
required collection point.
The use of the Pulse air system should be considered to mitigate the effects
of a materials/formations, which have:
1. A Tendency to bridge
2. A Low flow Characteristics
3. A Low OOC Value
4. A Tendency to Nest
5. Through experience exhibited properties which have proved to be
problematic in terms of pneumatic conveying; e.g. Tertiary Reactive
Clays
And;
ISO tanks which have been filled and remained static for extended periods,
such that there is a possibility of material being compacted or adhering to
the vessel shell
The system can be used as both a proactive method to mitigate the effects of
the above or as a reactive measure to overcome ISO Pump discharge or CCB
feed problems
The System is comprised of a number of Air Sweeps connected via a fixed flexible
hose manifold to a ‘Blow Valve’ controlled by pneumatic timers in the Control
Panel.
Typically the Pulse Air system is supplied from the Pressure Regulator Unit ‘Top
Air ‘ (Tank air) regulated 6 barg. To make the connection it is necessary to Use
either a 2” Tee or Cross Assembly
Each individual Air Sweep has a flow restriction device to regulate the flow to
2m3/m at 6barg.
The Pneumatic timers are set to give a cycle of six seconds with ‘1second air on’
and 5 seconds air off.

and achieve a true 1 second opening of the ‘Air Sweeps’
OPERATING PROCEDURES
When loaded with drill cuttings the ISO Pump is reconfigured as a pressure vessel
and as such pneumatically conveys the cuttings to the desired reception point.
Some formations properties are such that it is operationally desirable to use pulse
air continuously when discharging an ISO Pump
Compressed air is introduced into the ISO Pump at strategic positions together
with pulse air to enable the transfer of material from the vessel into the conveying
pipe.
As with the Storage Mode the procedures are fully manual and there are no
electrical interfaces with the Rig.
SYSTEM AT REST
When the ISO Pump is at rest in the Discharge Mode the status of the valves will
be as follows:
With the outlet pipe and hose assembly secured to the ISO Pump and this pipeline
fully pressure tested than the following procedure can commence.
The conveying air valve (HV91) is opened and airflow established through the
conveying pipe. An air only pressure drop of between 0.2 – 0.8 barg can be
expected.
When this flow is established then the Cuttings Outlet valve is opened.
Open Pulse Air Supply Valve and the Tank Air (Top Air) valve (HV 81).
At a material dependant tank pressure material will begin to discharge from the
tank. The line pressure will increase as the line loading improves.
When the ISO Pump is conveying cuttings in the Discharge Mode the status of the
valves will be as follows:
Material will continue to be discharged in this manner until the weight in the ISO
Pump has reached the original zero position.
It shall be noted that during the discharge cycle should there be a need to pause
the material flow then the ISO Pump outlet valve can be opened and closed
without concern.
When the ISO Pump has been emptied of cuttings during in the Discharge Mode
the status of the valves will be as follows:
With the ISO Pump empty the tank and line pressure should both record the same
value.
The air shall be left running for a sufficient period to enable the conveying line to be
completely purged of material. At this point the expected line pressure should be
approximately 0.2 – 0.8 barg.
The vent valve (HV 84) is opened to ensure any residual pressures are vented to
atmosphere.
When the ISO Pump has been emptied of cuttings and all airflows isolated the status of the valves
will be as follows:
Pulse Air may also be used as a reactive measure to assist in the discharge of
material from an ISO pump that has ‘Stalled’ during transfer or is proving difficult to
initiate the transfer of cuttings under normal operation without the continuous use
of pulse air as described above.
If when starting a transfer the ‘Top Air’ pressure reaches 4barg and the ISO Pump
has not started to discharge material. The discharge should be stopped and the
vessel should be depressurised and the following procedure carried out:
Open pulse air system and observe Tank Air pressure gauge
The conveying air valve (HV91) is opened and airflow established through the
conveying pipe. An air only pressure drop of between 0.2 – 0.8 barg can be
expected.
The use of Pulse Air will break up / fluidise the material and detach it from the walls
of the cone
When the application of Pulse Air has pressurised the vessel to ‘1barg rising’ the
Discharge Valve and Tank Air Valve should be opened.
If as above the ‘Top Air’ pressure reaches 4 barg without discharge starting then
the procedure should be stopped and resumed from the beginning.
When Discharge has been initiated the procedures are the same as for normal
discharge of an ISO tank as detailed in Section 3 of ISO Pump O&M Manual
On systems fitted with the air sweep modification the an air signal is taken from the
Inlet cuttings valve opening supply line to operate a ‘Burkett’ Blow Valve to provide
air to three air sweeps in the ‘Vibro’ Hopper to assist the material flow into the CCB
for the duration the CCB inlet Valve is open.

• P35469D-00 Feed Hopper Supply Assembly
• P35501D-00 Vibro Feed Hopper modifications
• P35532D-00 Feed Hopper Air Sweep Supply Assembly
Where a feed chute or a diverter is used to direct cuttings to a collection point, Air
Sweeps can be fitted to assist the migration of material, where there is a tendency
for the material to adhere to the surface, or to Nest and Pile up where a material
with a low Flow Characteristic is experienced.
These systems are typically bespoke and project specific but employ the same
basic equipment set up and settings as described.
Typically these systems are operated independently of the CCB and ISO Pump
Pulse air systems and normally supplied from Rig Service Air.

R-VALVE
The Clyde Materials Handling R-Valve is used extensively within the ISO Pump
arrangement and on skip loading stations, but can also be used as an in line valve
set to “ D- divert” or “T- through”. The valve is provided with a direction of flow
indicator. The valve is mounted on channels for transit purposes, although these
can be utilised as R Valve supports if required.
The Pneumatic actuator can be mounted on either side of the assembly to suit
direction of flow of material
Pipe stubs for the valve terminate with a groove suitable for a 5”size grooved
coupling.
The valve assembly weighs approx 200Kg and is provided with 2OFF M16 tapped
holes suitable for M16 lifting eyes and is mounted on channel sections for transit
purposes.
2.2 Installation
Remove any protective packaging and visually inspect for signs of damage during
transit.
Using a suitable lifting shackle, position the valve as required.
Note! The actuator should be mounted upper most refer Cat 5453,Cat 5461 & Cat
5466. for guidance.
Using 12mm .O/Dia’. nylon tube, connect the inlet and outlet ports of the pneumatic
actuator using the two 12mm tube nuts provided on the lever-operated valve (Item
2). Located on the R- valve-operating panel Cat 5462. Which should be located as
close as feasible to the R- valve.
Again, using 12mm O/Dia’ nylon tube, connect the operating valve to the filter
regulator panel. Use tees to split the air supply to more than one R Valve operating
valve.
Connect compressed air supply to lever- operated inlet ball valve (½” NPT).
Energise the system and check the function of the R- Valve noting the position of it’s
indicator tab in relation to the position of the lever handle on the operating control

Section 2
OVERVIEW
During normal operation of the system, drill cuttings will accumulate in a feed hopper
above the CCB. The drill cuttings will be discharged by gravity to the CCB. The drill
cuttings will then be pneumatically conveyed through pipework to the reception point,
typically the ISO-Pump or Skip Station.
A facility to connect a remote pushbutton station is included within the control panel.
The operation of the lamp and pushbuttons are identical to those fitted to the primary
control panel. If a secondary remote pushbutton station is not required then the
emergency stop and stop signals are to be linked out.
The start pushbutton on the front of the control panel (or the remote cycle start signal,
after the initial cycle) will initiate a conveying cycle. Subsequent cycles will be initiated
by either a cycle timer or a high level probe located above the CCB feed hopper. The
inlet Cuttings Valve will be opened and drill cuttings will fall under gravity into the CCB
vessel. The bin activator motor assists discharge from the feed hopper.
For problematic materials discharge may be further aided with the addition of aeration
nozzles into the bottom of this cone hopper. During filling and whilst at rest the vent
valve will be opened to allow the displaced air to be released from the CCB vessel and
the outlet Cuttings Valve will be closed.
Page 12 of 102
Revision No: 04
Section 2
After a timed delay the bin activator will be stopped. Simultaneously or after a further
short delay, the inlet Cuttings Valve will close. When the inlet Cuttings Valve has
closed and sealed, there will be a short timed delay to allow the outlet Cuttings Valve
to fully open. The vent valve will close and simultaneously the conveying air will be
introduced into the CCB vessel. The drill cuttings will be discharged from the CCB
vessel into the pipeline and will be conveyed to the reception point. Short pulses of air
will also be introduced to the CCB vessel at timed intervals via the air sweep nozzles
to help discharge the drill cuttings smoothly during the conveying cycle.
When the drill cuttings have been discharged and the CCB vessel has emptied, a drop
in the conveying pressure indicates most of the useful work of the cycle has been
completed. The conveying air valves will be closed and the vent valve opened. When
the conveying pressure has completely decayed, a ‘Low pressure’ switch will indicate
the cycle is complete.
The bin activator motor will be plug-stopped to prevent ‘running-on’ and possible
compaction of the drill cuttings in the feed hopper. This is achieved by applying reverse
phasing of the supply current thus rotating the motor in the reverse direction to normal
running for a brief time.
The vent from the CCB vessel will be routed into the cuttings ditch or a similar safe
area.

Section 2
SYSTEM AT REST
When the CCB is stopped and at rest the status of the valves will be as follows:
The CCB vessel should be empty and at zero pressure. The bin activator will be
stopped.
• Note: The inlet Cuttings Valve incorporates an inflating seal. In the event of the
loss of control air pressure, the valve will not be sealed.
Page 14 of 102
Revision No: 04
Section 2
Prior to operating the CCB for the first time, or after a period of no use it is
recommended that the adjustable time values be verified as correct for the cycle.
OPERATING SEQUENCE
At the start of each conveying cycle, the sequence controller will check that the
following cycle start interlock conditions are fulfilled:
OR
The conveying cycle is running i.e. the conveying cycle has been started and the
stop pushbutton has not been pressed.
AND
The emergency stop pushbutton (HS1-1) on the control panel is not operated.
CCB vessel pressure is < 0.3 barg (PSL02).
CCB inlet Cuttings Valve is closed and sealed (PSH01).
Cycle frequency timer is not running (see note a below)
AND
OR
AND
Providing the above conditions are true a conveying cycle will be initiated and will
proceed as follows:
Notes:
a. If running on probe the cycle timer must be set to less than 20 seconds. If
the timer setting is greater than this minimum value then the timer will hold
cycle start off until elapsed irrespective of the probe status.
Page 15 of 102
Revision No: 04
Section 2
Step 1
The ‘Inlet Cuttings Valve’ is opened and the ‘Outlet Cuttings Valve’ is closed by
energising solenoid number (EV01). The inlet Cuttings Valve open timer (8 seconds),
cycle watchdog timer (40 seconds) and cycle frequency timer (60 seconds) will be
started. Drill cuttings will fall under gravity into the CCB vessel.
Simultaneously, the bin activator run timer (6 seconds) will be started and air to the
feed hopper air sweeps initiated.
On systems that have air sweep aeration devices fitted to the feed hopper then an air
signal is taken from the Inlet cuttings valve opening supply line to operate a Blow Valve
to provide air to three air sweeps in the ‘Vibro’ Hopper to assist the material flow into
the CCB for the duration the CCB inlet Valve is open.
Step 2
When the bin activator run timer has expired and after a short delay (0.5 seconds) the
bin activator will be plug-stopped by reversing the motor current phases for the
duration of the reverse phase plug-stop run timer (0.4 seconds). The bin activator is
interlocked with the inlet Cuttings Valve to prevent the bin activator running with the
inlet Cuttings Valve in the closed position (if the timers are incorrectly set).
The reverse phase plug-stop will not operate if the bin activator run timer value is set to
zero seconds.
Note: The duration of the bin activator run timer is to be less than the duration of the
inlet Cuttings Valve open timer.
Step 3
When the inlet Cuttings Valve open timer has expired, the inlet Cuttings Valve will be
closed and the outlet Cuttings Valve will be opened by de-energising solenoid (EV01).
Step 4
When the inlet Cuttings Valve (PSH01) has closed and sealed, the blow delay timer (3
seconds) will be started.
Step 5
When the blow delay timer has expired, the conveying air valve will be opened and the
vent valve will be closed by energising the solenoid (EV02). The convey secure timer
(20 seconds) will be started. The pulse interval timer (6 seconds) and delay pulse on
Page 16 of 102
Revision No: 04
Section 2
timer (5 seconds) will be started simultaneously with this step. When the delay pulse
interval timer expires the air sweep valve will be pulsed open by energising the air
sweep valve solenoid (EV03) for a period of time equal to (pulse interval timer) –
(delay pulse on timer) i.e. 6-5 = 1 second. This introduces pulses of air to the CCB
vessel through the air sweep nozzles at regular intervals throughout the conveying
cycle and helps discharge the drill cuttings smoothly. Air will enter the CCB vessel and
the drill cuttings will be discharged into the conveying pipe.
The drill cuttings will be conveyed through the pipeline to the reception point.
Step 6
When the convey secure timer has expired and the pressure in the CCB vessel has
fallen to less than 1.0 barg (PSL09), most of the useful work of the cycle is complete.
The conveying air valve (PV02) will be closed and the vent valve (PV05) will be
opened by de-energising solenoid (EV02). Simultaneously the air sweep valve (PV03)
will stop being pulsed open by de-energising solenoid (EV03).
Step 7
When the pressure in the CCB vessel has dropped to less than 0.3 barg (PSL02) and
the cycle frequency timer has expired, the ‘cycle-reset’ timer (3 seconds) will be
started.
Step 8
When the ‘cycle-reset’ timer has expired, the conveying cycle is complete.
Note:
If during the cycle any start interlocks become untrue, then that cycle will be permitted
to continue and end. The system will then stop until all of the start interlocks conditions
again become true.
Similarly, where an event has to occur to permit the cycle to proceed to the next step,
then the progress of the cycle will be halted until that interlock condition has become
true. The cycle will then proceed to the next step. The progress of the cycle to the next
step will be latched for the remainder of the cycle, so that in the event of the interlock
condition subsequently becoming untrue, the cycle will not stop or regress. The latches
are released at the end of the cycle during the cycle-reset timer.

Section 2
The pneumatic control panel at the CCB vessel houses the solenoid valves and the
inlet Cuttings Valve closed (PSH01) pressure switch.
The sequence controller located in the electrical control panel will control the CCB. The
operator interface is by means of pushbuttons, a selector switch, a lamp and the text
display of the sequence controller.
Pushbuttons
When the emergency stop pushbutton is pressed, the sequence controller will stop and
reset the sequence, all outputs will be ‘off’ (the position of the valves will be as for loss
of electrical supply). Pull to reset the emergency stop pushbutton.
Start (HS2-1)
When the start pushbutton is pressed, the conveying cycle will be started
(when the start interlock conditions are fulfilled). This will also reset the bin
activator fault alarm and will cancel the operation of the stop pushbutton.
Stop (HS2-3)
When pressed this will enable the conveying cycle to continue, and then stop
at the end of the cycle.
Providing the timer adjust selector switch (ZS2-10) is not in the ‘off’ position and a
conveying cycle is not in progress, this pushbutton will increment the selected
adjustable timer by one second with every ‘press’ of the pushbutton.
Providing the timer adjust selector switch (ZS2-10) is not in the ‘off’ position and a
conveying cycle is not in progress, this pushbutton will decrement the selected
adjustable timer by one second with every ‘press’ of the pushbutton.

IMPORTANT
The CleanCut Cuttings Blower conveying vessel is, for insurance purposes, classed
as a pressure vessel.
Page 26 of 102
Revision No: 04
Section 3
INSTALLATION
The CleanCut Cuttings Blower is installed beneath a feed chute with an allowance of
25mm made on overall height to allow the CleanCut Cuttings Blower to be slid into
position and raised on the jacking screws provided.
The CleanCut Cuttings Blower does not normally require bolting down since there is
no reaction or vibration during conveying. However in offshore applications after
installation. The vessel may be welded as necessary to the deck using the four
sacrificial mounting pads provided
Lifting
Care must be taken during any lifting of the CleanCut Cuttings Blower during
installation. Damage may be caused to the Cuttings Valve sealing head if any bar or
lifting device is placed inside the Cuttings Valve in order to obtain a lifting point. It is
recommended that the lifting lugs provided or eyebolts be used to lift the CleanCut
Cuttings Blower. Refer also to the erection and installation procedure
A gasket is fitted between the CleanCut Cuttings Blower and the vibratory feed
chute. An air tight seal is required on all equipment above the CleanCut Cuttings
Blower since the air displaced from the material chamber during the Cuttings Valve
open period will tend to 'blow out' material from any loose fitting flange or simple
slide type isolating valve.
Air Supply
The air supply line size may appear larger than that required for the stated air
consumption, this is due to the fluctuating usage of air by the CleanCut Cuttings
Blower. Airflow is approximately twice the average air consumption stated for a brief
period during each conveying cycle.
Each CleanCut Cuttings Blower™ is equipped with its own air strainer to prevent
pipe scale and dirt from causing pressure regulator malfunction. An automatic drain
filter and oil fog lubricator set is fitted into the airline that is used for the pneumatic
controls.
Page 27 of 102
Revision No: 04
Section 3
Any air line stop valves which are fitted into the air supply to the CleanCut Cuttings
Blower must be of the 'gate' or 'ball' type which do not cause a restriction to air flow
when open.
Airline filters with fine mesh porous elements should not be fitted as these cause an
airflow restriction during peak air demand periods.
For a detailed description of the working cycle of the CCB section 2 of this manual
should be observed.
1. Ensure compressor is operational and on load and the 2” CCB pilot operated
regulator is set to 6.0 barg.
2. Ensure the electrical supply is healthy and the main isolator ion the CCB is
switched to the ON position.
3. With the CCB set at rest check the timer settings are as in accordance with
section 2 of this manual.
5. Start the system by pressing the green start push button. CCB cycle will
commence as soon as the high level probe is covered or to check depress the
level probe override button.
6. The CCB will now cycle at a frequency relative to the cuttings rate of
production.
7. To bring the unit to a controlled stop press the red stop button or alternatively
if an upset or fault condition occurs the CCB can be brought to an immediate
stop by depressing the Emergency Stop button.

1. Close isolating valve above CleanCut Cuttings Blower (if installed) , run the
vessel until empty by pressing the probe override button located on front of
operator control panel (where fitted). Turn relevant selector switch to 'OFF'
position.
2. Shut off mains air supply valve to the vessel (lock off if it is mounted remotely)
3. Shut off control air supply to the pneumatic panel and drain through the filter
on filter/ lubricator set, if venting has not been achieved in the normal through
the venting isolating valve.
2. On the side of the electronics unit there is a Fail-Safe High/Fail-Safe Low selector
switch. Ensure this is set to Fail Safe High (upper most switch position).
Notes
• The LED on indicates the normal condition (i.e. LED will be extinguished when
material is covering the probe)
• Turning the adjustment pot clockwise will raise the level at which the LED
operates and turning counter clockwise will lower the level at which the LED
will operate.

It shall be noted that before starting any routine maintenance ensure the
system is isolated both electrically and pneumatically. Conveying pipes and
CCB/ISO Pump vessels must also be vented of any residual pressure.
DAILY MAINTENANCE
The daily system check is an attempt to identify the possible onset of component
failure before the event effects system performance and ultimately impacts the
overall system reliability.
Unlike the weekly and monthly maintenance routines there are no planned activities
for this regime. The check, assuming a live operational system, is intended to verify
the operational health of the equipment with corrective actions only taking place
should problems or the onset of possible component failure be identified.
In order for the following checklist to be purposefully administered the system should
ideally be operational. If so a combination of pressure readings, pressure settings
and valve functionality tests will be read or determined.
