1.4 Product marking
1.4.1 Connectors and Penetrators
Figure 2 - Example Etching for SpecTRON 8 Products
Siemens Energy Subsea SpecTRON 8 connectors and penetrators are laser marked on the gland body
with the Siemens Energy Subsea part number, unique serial number, and product rating information.
Additionally, connector front-ends are also marked with their part number and unique serial number
to aide traceability during manufacturing.
1.4.2 Harnesses
Harnesses are also marked with the Siemens Energy Subsea part number and unique serial number
as shown in Figure 3. Client and project specific information is also usually added to these labels.
Labels are typically black text on a yellow background underneath clear heat shrink. Typically, labels
are located at each end of the harness and centrally.
Figure 3 - Example harness marking
1.5 CE label/marking
SpecTRON 8 is exempt from any current requirement for CE marking. Siemens Energy continue to
monitor European and International requirements for applicability to the SpecTRON 8 product range.

2.3.3 Risk of death due to electrocution
Danger! Risk of death from electric shock due to exposed live pins, e.g. factory or top-side
system test and unmated receptacle is energised, e.g. by diver subsea.
- Ensure all test procedures are followed.
- Receptacles must be mated to a wet mate or test plug before energisation
- Communication channels and protocols are observed.
Danger! Risk of death from electric shock from any exposed conductors due to stored
electrical energy, e.g. capacitance of cable or elsewhere in the system.
- Ensure all procedures are followed.
- Allow sufficient time for discharging of items after testing
Danger! Risk of death from electric shock from test connectors. Live parts can be exposed
by disassembly without a tool (e.g. termination sleeves are accessible and can be removed).
Also exposed cable conductors at free end of test connectors, and unscreened cables in
some terminations.
- Ensure all test procedures are followed.
- Receptacles must be mated to a wet mate or test plug before energisation
- Communication channels and protocols must be observed.
Danger! Risk of death from electric shock if product is terminated incorrectly by 3rd party
e.g. loose conductor touching metal body, or live wire terminated to metal body in error.
- Installation/termination activities must be carried out by a competent person
Danger! Risk of death from electric shock due to metal body of connector not being earthed
during test and connector having earth fault (e.g. conductor touching metalwork) during
electrical testing.
- Ensure all testing of products both factory and deployed in-field have been completed
by competent persons.
Danger! Risk of death from electric shock or severe personal injury through burning from
de-mating live conductors by hand.
- Ensure all procedures are followed for mating/de-mating connectors.
2.3.4 Risk of injury and material damage due to maintenance and repairs carried out
incorrectly or not at all
Maintenance work or repairs on the products should only be carried out by a competent person.
Faults and damage should be immediately rectified by a competent person. Adhere to the
maintenance intervals specified.
Danger! Risk of imminent danger to life, risk of severe personal injury from burning and
material damage from ohmic heating in short-circuit condition or high over-currents.
- Ensure all testing of products both factory and deployed in-field have been completed
by competent persons.
Danger! Risk of imminent danger to life, risk of severe personal injury caused by released
pressure and or projectile due to incorrectly installed pressure retaining product, e.g.
during system pressure test (e.g. SpecTRON 8 penetrator fitted with wrong/insufficient
screws or seals).

- Ensure all product assembly and testing activities are completed by competent persons.
Danger! Risk of imminent danger to life, risk of severe personal injury to persons with
pacemakers or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDS) from electromagnetic
interference (EMI) e.g. high frequency testing with large load currents.
- Ensure all testing of products both factory and topside are not conducted by or in the
presence of persons with pacemakers or ICDS.
Danger! Risk of severe personal eye injury due to pressurised oil squirting out of damaged
hose or removal of fill/vent screw.
Ensure all testing of products both factory and deployed in-field have been completed by
competent persons.
Warning. Risk of eye/bodily injury caused by released pressure during product disassembly,
in the event of retrieval from subsea with a fault that causes depth pressure to be trapped
inside the product.
- Ensure all product disassembly activities are completed by competent persons in
accordance with relevant procedures and using relevant personal protective equipment
(PPE).
Warning. Risk of bodily injury caused by pressure retaining parts becoming projectile due
to user over-pressurising the system, e.g. during Site Installation Test (SIT).
- Ensure all product SIT activities are completed by competent persons in accordance
with relevant procedures.
- All pressure testing of SpecTRON 8 products must be undertaken by a competent
person.
- Installation of SpecTRON 8 penetrators, and bulkhead connectors must be undertaken
by a competent person.
2.3.5 Risk of injury and material damage due to manual handling
Manual handling, lifting and carrying are known to be one of the largest contributors to occupational
ill-health. Ensure mechanical handling aids are used wherever possible to avoid manual handling.
Where manual handling is considered appropriate for the task, safe lifting guidelines must be
followed, e.g. adopt correct posture, consider team lifting, employ safe lifting technique, etc. Only
competent persons are permitted to perform tasks without supervision, if in doubt, ask.

synthetic ester based oils.
- Wear appropriate hand protection when handling products, mineral, silicone or
synthetic ester based oils.
Warning. Risk of minor personal injury and material damage due to slips, trips and falls.
-Good housekeeping avoids slips, trips and falls, keep all work areas clean and tidy.
