AS FOUND FUNCTIONAL PROOF TESTING PROCEDURE
7.1 Valve Performance As Found
Purpose of Test
To verify the correct undisturbed operation of FINAL ELEMENT valves as found prior to multiple operation
during SIF testing.
To verify correct DIAGNOSTICS information.
To verify correct Manual and Emergency Shutdown operation of FINAL ELEMENT valves.
If this test is not performed ‘as found’ undetected faults may not be revealed.
If valve target time is exceeded the tank could overfill following shutdown.
If valve target time is reduced the dockline could overpressure (surge) following shutdown.
Diagnostic information not displayed correctly could result in undetected tank overfill, system
unavailability or incorrect operational response.
Valves not operating correctly in manual or following Site ESD could initiate a tank overfill and
may not close if a demand is made on the overfill protection system.
