SECTION ONE
SAFETY INFORMATION
GENERAL
Operation of any access device is one of the most dangerous procedures faced by plant
personnel and it is very important to be aware of the potential for serious injury or death that may
result from unsafe practices or unseen hazards.
INTERNAL PRESSURE
Prior to operating any Closure, be certain that all internal system pressure has been fully
equalized with the external pressure in a safe, controlled manner.
Any residual internal pressure can cause severe injury or death if the Closure is operated
in this state. Beware of the dangers of lower pressures as they can be equally as fatal as
higher pressures, for example an NPS8 Closure with just 10 psig residual internal
pressure may suddenly expend a force of 500 lbs. to free the Closure Cap.
The Pressure Alert Fitting is designed to warn the Operator of residual internal pressure
and is not intended to be used as a system bleed. If pressure is released through the
Fitting as it is opened, DO NOT OPERATE THE CLOSURE. Close the Fitting and
completely bleed the system pressure in a safe manner.
The Pressure Alert Fitting is standard on all sizes NPS6 and larger. The Fitting is
optional on smaller sizes.
Since Closures are generally used in clean-out and otherwise dirty applications, pressure
gages and warning devices may become plugged-off or fouled and provide false
pressure situation. Even if these devices indicate a safe state continue to use extreme
caution when operating the Closure.
OPERATOR POSITION
Prior to operating any Closure, be certain the Operator is situated in a safe position.
As a rule-of-thumb, the Operator should stand on the side of the Closure opposite the
hinge. If in the event residual pressure or a projectile are present, the Cap will swing
away from the Operator.
Whether the Closure Cap is in the opened or closed position, avoid looking directly into or
standing in front of the opened bore or unopened Cap. Trapped objects, such as pigs or
ice dams, may be suddenly released and be violently expelled out of the bore or against
an unopened Cap, damaging it or forcing it clear given sufficient force and may result in
severe injury or death.
Avoid installing the Closure where the bore is directed towards buildings and equipment
or where personnel or the public have access.

OPERATION
The In-Line Closure must be operated in a manner to limited physical damage to the unit
and maintain its integrity.
When opening or closing the Closure, DO NOT strike the Closure Cap with any hard-
faced tools. This will severely damage the Cap by deforming the lugs and possibly crack
or create a system of micro-fractures within the microstructure of the Cap material that
may result in catastrophic failure.
The In-Line Closure seals by means of a pressure energized O-Ring that is compressed
only until metal-to-metal contact is achieved between the Cap and Weld Hub. Tightening
beyond this point will not create a better seal and may damage the Closure. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
Spanner wrenches for all Closures are available and are extremely effective for safely
obtaining a tight seal.

SECTION TWO
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT
OPERATING ISSUES HAVE OCCURRED WHEN CLOSURES ARE ATTACHED PRIOR TO
THE INSTALLATION OF WELDED ATTACHMENTS OR BOLT-ON EQUIPMENT IN CLOSE
PROXIMITY TO THE CLOSURE. THE EXTERNAL FORCES AND DISTORSION CREATED
BY THESE ITEMS HAVE BEEN SHOWN TO TRANSLATE TO THE CLOSURE HUB
RESULTING IN AN OUT-OF-ROUND CONDITION, CREATING SEALING AND CLOSURE
MAKE-UP PROBLEMS. FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, ALL WELDED ATTACHMENTS AND
BOLT-ON EQUIPMENT WITHIN TEN (10) PIPE DIAMETERS OF THE CLOSURE SHOULD BE
FULLY INSTALLED PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF THE CLOSURE WELD HUB.
Preliminary
1. All welding procedures, welding operations and welder performance qualifications should be
controlled to ensure compliance with the Construction Code and the Regulatory Authority in
the Jurisdiction of installation. All welding must be performed in accordance with these
procedures by welders qualified with those procedures.
2. The material specification and grade are permanently marked on all Weld Hubs. Check all
markings to ensure proper material is as ordered and welding protocols are followed.
3. Do not drop the Closure and especially avoid impact on the Cap Pin. The Cap Pin runs
concentric with the Closure Threads and any bending of the Cap Pin may result in the
Closure being inoperable or may damage the Closure threads during make-up. If bending
occurs, do not operate the Closure any further and return the Closure to the factory for
adjustment.
4. When multiple installations are occurring simultaneously, place a unique mark on each Cap
and Weld Hub prior to disassembly to prevent mixing of assemblies.
5. Where required, use lifting equipment of sufficient size and stability when performing
installation and ensure operation by trained personnel.

Disassembly
Horizontal and Vertical Hinge Closures (NPS2 to NPS14)
1. With the Closure placed on the ground on the Weld Hub, remove the stem from the
Pressure Alert Fitting and completely unscrew the Cap. Carefully swing the Cap off of
the Hub and slide the Hinge Arm out of the Hinge. Store the Cap/Hinge assembly in a
clean location or cover to minimize contamination.
2. Carefully remove the O-ring seal from the Weld Hub. If the seal is damaged,
replacement seals can be obtained from In-Line or from any local O-ring supplier. The O-
ring number is stamped directly on the Closure Weld Hub.
3. Remove the Pressure Alert Fitting from the Weld Hub and store with the Cap/Hinge
assembly.
Horizontal Hinge Closures (NPS16 and Larger)
1. With the Closure placed on the ground on the Weld Hub, remove the stem from the
Pressure Alert Fitting.
2. On the Trolley Bolt, place a mark with a paint maker on the Bolt and Nut below the
Suspension Arm to ensure the Cap remains at the factory set height after assembly.
3. Remove the Lock Collar from the Cap Pin and slide the Suspension Arm off of the Cap
Pin. Lift the Suspension Arm and Trolley off of the Davit Arm. CAUTION: Have another
worker support the Davit Arm while removing the Suspension Arm /Trolley to prevent the
Davit Arm from swinging and causing injury.
4. Remove the Davit Arm from the Hinge. Remove all bearings (NPS26 and larger).
5. Insert an Eyebolt in the Cap Pin and use a lift to support the weight of the Closure – DO
NOT lift completely off the ground. Only use a Lifting Hook with a swivel so the Eyebolt
does not unscrew from the Cap Pin while the Cap is rotated. Alternatively, use a set of
hooks through the three Lugs attached to the Closure Cap to support the weight during
removal.
6. Using the Ratchet Tool, loosen the Cap approximately 1/8 turn until the Cap can rotate by
hand.
7. While carefully countering the weight of the Cap with the lift, unscrew the Cap from the
Weld Hub. Store the Cap in a clean location or cover to minimize contamination.
8. Carefully remove the O-ring seal from the Weld Hub. If the seal is damaged,
replacement seals can be obtained from In-Line or from any local O-ring supplier. The O-
ring number is stamped directly on the Closure Weld Hub.

Attachment of the Weld Hub
1. Remove all paint and residue from the weld area.
2. Position the Weld Hub to the pipe/vessel as below and tack weld:
a) For Horizontal Hinged Closures NPS2 to NPS14, the Hinge shall be leveled
vertical on the Left side of the Weld Hub while facing the seal groove. The
Pressure Alert Fitting opening shall be in the 12 o’clock position (note – for
specially ordered right-hand hinged Closures, the Hinge will be located on the
opposite (right side) of the Weld Hub);
b) For Vertical Hinged Closures NPS2 and larger and Horizontal Hinged Closures
NPS16 and larger, the Hinge shall be leveled vertical.
3. Heat input during welding must be controlled to avoid distortion. It is recommended that
sufficient pre-heat and the following pass sequence be used to minimize stress gradients
caused by welding:
Figure 1. Recommended Welding Pass Sequence
4. If post-weld heat treatment is required, remove all grease from the threads and sealing
surfaces and coat these exposed with an anti-oxidation compound to prevent scaling. Do
not heat treat the Cap, Hinge Assembly or Pressure Alert Fitting.
Assembly
Horizontal and Vertical Hinge Closures (NPS2 to NPS14)
1. Prior to assembly, be certain horizontal hinge Closures are orientated horizontally
and vertical hinge Closures are orientated vertical. The Davit assembly is only
designed to support the weight of the Cap in its designed orientation. Failure to do
so may result in injury or damage to the Closure threads.
2. Clean all grease, scale, dirt and other residue from the Weld Hub, Cap and Hinge
Assembly, especially from the threads and sealing surfaces. Liberally coat the Weld
Hub and Cap threads with molybdenum disulfide grease (preferably) or other anti-
seize lubricant. Do not assemble or operate with the threads dry. Grease Hinge
components and assemble Hinge Arm/Cap Assembly into the Weld Hub Hinge. Do
not replace the Seal at this point.

3. Carefully insert the Hinge Arm into the Hinge and gently lower the Cap/Hinge
assembly until it contacts the adjustable Lock Collar.
4. Attempt to screw the Cap on to the Weld Hub. If smooth operation is not evident,
finely adjust the position of the Lock Collar until the best movement is obtained.
5. With the seal removed, tighten the Cap until metal-to-metal contact is achieved with
the Weld Hub. Permanently stamp two alignment marks on the Cap and Weld Hub.
6. Unscrew the Cap. Clean and apply a very thin film of grease into the O-ring groove
and replace the Seal. Do not pack the O-ring groove with grease.
7. Screw the Cap on to the Weld Hub and tighten until alignment of the marks made in
Step 7 is made. Do not tighten past these marks.
Figure 2 Alignment Marks
Horizontal Hinge Closures (NPS16 and Larger)
1. Prior to assembly, be certain the Closure is orientated horizontally. The Davit
assembly is only designed to support the weight of the Cap in the horizontal
orientation. Failure to do so may result in injury or damage to the Closure threads.
2. Clean all grease, scale, dirt and other residue from the Weld Hub, Cap, especially
from the threads and sealing surfaces. Liberally coat the Weld Hub and Cap threads
with molybdenum disulfide grease (preferably) or other anti-seize lubricant. Do not
assemble or operate with the threads dry. Do not replace the Seal at this time.

3. Clean and grease the Davit Arm and bearings (NPS26 and larger) and insert into the
Hinge.
4. Grease the Cap Pin and slide the Suspension Arm/Trolley over the Pin. Replace the
Lock Collar and tighten.
5. Carefully lift the Cap/Suspension Arm/Trolley assembly and slide the Trolley on to the
Davit Arm.
6. Without the Seal in place, attempt to screw the Cap on to the Hub by hand. If smooth
operation is not evident, finely adjust the Nut holding the Suspension Arm upwards or
downwards until the best possible movement is obtained.
7. Rotate the Cap slowly until metal-to-metal contact is achieved with the Weld Hub.
The Ratchet Tool is not necessary to achieve this point, but maybe helpful to ensure
contact is made and the Cap is centered. Do not overtighten. Permanently stamp
two alignment marks on the Cap and Weld Hub.
8. Unscrew the Cap. Clean and apply a very thin film of grease into the O-ring groove
and replace the Seal. Do not pack the O-ring groove with grease.
9. Screw the Cap on to the Weld Hub and tighten until alignment of the marks made in
Step 7 is made. Do not tighten past these marks.
Vertical Hinge Closures (NPS16 and Larger)
1. Prior to assembly, be certain the Closure is orientated vertically. The Davit assembly
is only designed to support the weight of the Cap in the vertical orientation. Failure to
do so may result in injury or damage to the Closure threads.
2. Clean all grease, scale, dirt and other residue from the Weld Hub, Cap, especially
from the threads and sealing surfaces. Liberally coat the Weld Hub and Cap threads
with molybdenum disulfide grease (preferably) or other anti-seize lubricant. Do not
assemble or operate with the threads dry. Do not replace the Seal at this time.
3. Clean and grease the Davit Arm and bearings (NPS26 and larger). Make certain the
Davit Arm is spun down and solidly contacts the bottom of the Cap Pin. Insert into the
Hinge.
4. Attempt to screw the Cap on to the Weld Hub. If smooth operation is not evident,
finely adjust the position of the Lock Collar until the best movement is obtained.
5. With the seal removed, tighten the Cap until metal-to-metal contact is achieved with
the Weld Hub. Permanently stamp two alignment marks on the Cap and Weld Hub.
6. Unscrew the Cap. Clean and apply a very thin film of grease into the O-ring groove
and replace the Seal. Do not pack the O-ring groove with grease.
7. Screw the Cap on to the Weld Hub and tighten until alignment of the marks made in
Step 7 is made. Do not tighten past these marks.

SECTION THREE
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: PRIOR TO OPERATING THE IN-LINE CLOSURE, BE
CERTAIN ALL PRESSURE HAS BEEN RELIEVED.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY RELIEVE PRESSURE,
REGARDLESS OF ITS MAGNITUDE, MAY RESULT IN
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH. PLEASE FOLLOW ALL IN-
HOUSE SAFETY PROCEDURES AND THESE
INSTRUCTIONS THROUGHLY AND USE EXTREME
CAUTION WHEN OPERATING THESE DEVICES.
OPENING PROCEDURE (Review Section One – Safety Information prior to operation)
1. Completely relieve all system pressure.
2. Open the Pressure Alert Fitting (if equipped) completely to verify pressure has been relieved.
The Pressure Alert Fitting is not intended to relieve system pressure, only to warn the
Operator of residual system pressure. It is standard on sizes 6” and above and available as
a recommended option on smaller sizes.
3. If the Pressure Alert Fitting indicates system pressure remains, DO NOT OPERATE THE
CLOSURE. Close the Fitting and repeat Steps 1 and 2 until the all pressure is relieved.
4. Loosen the Cap approximately one-half turn and stop. It is recommended that a spanner
wrench (or ratchet for sizes 16 and above), available as an option, be used to loosen the
Cap. The use of hard-faced tools and/or impact is not recommended, will void the warranty
and may damage the Closure where catastrophic failure may result.
5. At this point the Seal between the Cap and Weld Hub is broken and any remaining pressure
should vent through the Pressure Relief Slots in the Weld Hub threads. If pressure vents
through the Slots, do not open the Closure further. Close the Cap and properly relieve
remaining residual pressure. The Slots only serves as an alert feature in conjunction with the
Pressure Alert Fitting and is not intended to relieve system pressure.
6. Once it is verified all pressure is relieved and with the Operator standing on the side opposite
the Hinge, continue to rotate the Cap until it is removed from the Weld Hub. Swing the Cap
completely out from the front of the Weld Hub to gain access to the system.
7. During the opening operation and after the Closure is opened, avoid standing or placing any
part of the body directly in front of the Closure opening. Trapped or stuck objects within the
system may result in projectiles if they suddenly break loose and are ejected through the
Closure.

CLOSING PROCEDURE
1. Prior to closing the Closure, perform the maintenance operation as outlined in Section Four
– Maintenance Instructions.
2. Position the Cap to the Weld Hub and adjust until the threads engage. Rotate the Cap until
Seal contact is made.
3. Continue to rotate the Cap until metal-to-metal contact is achieved as indicated by the
markings on the Cap and Weld Hub as described in Section Two Part 9. DO NOT OVER
TIGHTEN THE CAP PAST THIS POINT.
4. As stated in the Opening operation, the used of hard-faced tools and/or impact for loosen and
tightening the Cap is not recommended, will void the warranty and may damage the Closure
where catastrophic failure may result. Spanner wrenches are highly recommended.
5. If the Closure is equipped with a Pressure Alert Fitting, replace the stem and hand-tighten. If
necessary, gently snug the stem closed with a wrench. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE
STEM AS THIS MAY DAMAGE THE PRESSURE ALERT FITTING. If over tightening
occurs, the Pressure Alert Fitting may require replacement.
6. Pressurize the system and check for leakage. If leakage occurs, perform the maintenance
operation as outlined in Section Four – Maintenance Instructions.

SECTION FOUR
MAINTANENCE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: REGULAR MAINTANENCE OF THE IN-LINE CLOSURE IS
NECESSARY TO ENSURE INTEGRITY OF SAFETY
FEATURES AND TROUBLE-FREE OPERATION. FAILURE
TO PERFORM REGULAR MAINTANENCE MAY RESULT IN
UNSAFE OPERATION CAUSING SEVERE INJURY OR
DEATH.
1. Regular maintenance should be performed each time the Closure is operated. Contact the
factory, if required, if the Closure or any part(s) exhibit damage or wear to the extent
replacement is warranted.
2. Be certain all system pressure is relieved prior to performing maintenance procedures.
3. Inspect all welds and pressure–containing parts for defects such as cracks. Repair or
replace as required.
4. Inspect the threads on both the Cap and Weld Hub for signs of wear or galling. It is vitally
important the threads are clean and well lubricated. Do not operate with the threads dry.
5. Inspect the Seal and replace if damaged. In-Line Closures use standard HSN O-Rings
available locally and worldwide. The O-Ring number is stamped on Weld Hub for
convenience and easy identification. The Operator may use any elastomer suitable for the
service.
6. If system fluids, sand and other residue contaminate the threads or Seal, remove the Seal
and thoroughly clean the threads, thread slots and Seal Groove. Lightly lubricate the Seal
Groove with a thin film of all-purpose grease and insert the Seal (replace if required).
Liberally lubricate the Cap and Weld Hub threads with an anti-seize compound, preferably
one containing molybdenum disulfide.
7. Lubricate all sliding Hinge components and grease fittings.
8. If Hinge adjustments are required, with the Closure closed halfway, loosen the Hinge Stop
and lift the Hinge Arm and Cap simultaneously and re-tighten. Cycle the Closure and
continue to adjust until smooth operation is achieved.

with shrink-wrapping fully intact. Damaged shrink-wrapping shall be repaired or replaced as
required to maintain protection.
2. Closures shall be stored in a clean, dry area away from traffic areas to avoid physical
damage and contamination from dirt, spray, etc.
3. Prior to installation, the Closures shall be warmed to ambient temperatures above freezing to
facilitate easier disassembly. Disassembled components shall be stored in a clean/dry
environment and inspected for cleanliness after removal from storage up to
installation/assembly.
4. It is important that the Closure threads remain clean and protected with clean grease during
storage, disassembly, installation and assembly. Dirt, weld slag, etc. will damage threads if
entrained within the grease during Head removal or make-up.
