PLUGGING HEAD INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
A. Prior to mounting the line stop equipment the Head will be checked to insure that the proper
pipe adapter plates have been installed and that the Sealing Element is the correct size,
based on the retrieved coupon.
B. Orient the Folding Head with the run of pipe, making sure that the Sealing Element is facing
downstream.
C. Bolt up the Plugging Machine and install the Plugging Head into the pipe as follows:
♦ Crack open the Tapping Valve and fill the plugging assembly;
♦ Pressure up and inspect all joints for pressure tightness;
♦ Fully open Tapping Valve;
♦ Advance the Plugging Machine’s actuator bar down into the pipe and set the Head at
its calculated distance. Verify all measurements.
♦ Blow down the downstream end of the pipe using a fire hydrant or similar large-port
discharge;
♦ Verify the workability of the line stop;
♦ Give Customer go-ahead for dewatering & pipe separation or repair.
PLUGGING HEAD REMOVAL PROCEDURE
A. Upon customer completion of work the “dead” pipe section MUST be re-pressurized to the
