Safety instructions and measures

1 Safety instructions and measures
Intended use
The Type 46-5 and Type 46-6 Regulators are designed to limit the differential pressure and
flow rate. The regulators are mainly used in district heating supply networks and industrial
plants. The regulator and actuator are designed to operate under exactly defined conditions
(e.g. operating pressure, process medium, temperature). Therefore, operators must ensure
that the regulator and actuator are only used in operating conditions that meet the specifica-
tions used for sizing the devices at the ordering stage. In case operators intend to use the de-
vices in other applications or conditions than specified, contact SAMSON.
SAMSON does not assume any liability for damage resulting from the failure to use the de-
vice for its intended purpose or for damage caused by external forces or any other external
factors.
Î Refer to the technical data and nameplate for limits and fields of application as well as
possible uses.
Reasonably foreseeable misuse
The regulator is not suitable for the following applications:
− Use outside the limits defined during sizing and by the technical data
Furthermore, the following activities do not comply with the intended use:
− Use of non-original spare parts
− Performing service and repair work not described in these instructions
Qualifications of operating personnel
The regulator must be mounted, started up, serviced and repaired by fully trained and quali-
fied personnel only; the accepted industry codes and practices are to be observed. Accord-
ing to these mounting and operating instructions, trained personnel refers to individuals who
are able to judge the work they are assigned to and recognize possible hazards due to their
specialized training, their knowledge and experience as well as their knowledge of the appli-
cable standards.
