Apparatus and method for sealing and monitoring a bolted flange joint
Bolted flange joint sealing and monitoring apparatus, the bolted flange joint comprising two flanges abutting one another at an interface and the abutting flanges providing an inner surface and an outer surface, the apparatus including: a layer of sealant (10) applied to the interface (6) and an area of the abutting flanges surrounding the interface on at least one of the inner and outer surfaces; on at least one of the inner and outer surfaces a first layer of sheet material (13) adapted to provide an air space; a second layer of sheet material (15) overlying the first layer (13); a fluid impermeable sealant (16) overlying the second layer (15); wherein an air tight space is formed around the first layer (13), a vacuum source in fluid communication with said air tight space, vacuum monitoring means configured to monitor the status of a vacuum created in the air tight space.
