Start-up and shutdown procedures fall within the scope of the operator's duties and, as such, are not part of these mounting and operating instructions. SAMSON is unable to make any statements about these procedures since the operative details (e.g. differential pressures and temperatures) vary in each individual case and are only known to the operator.

Safety instructions and measures 1.2 Notes on possible personal injury WARNING Risk of personal injury through incorrect operation, use or installation as a result of information on the regulator being illegible. Over time, markings, labels and nameplates on the regulator may become covered with dirt or become illegible in some other way. As a result, hazards may go unno- ticed and the necessary instructions not followed.

Î Wear protective clothing, safety gloves and eye protection. Damage to health relating to the REACH regulation. If a SAMSON device contains a substance which is listed as being a substance of very high concern on the candidate list of the REACH regulation, this circumstance is indi- cated on the SAMSON delivery note.
The lubricants to be used depend on the regulator material. Unsuitable lubricants may corrode and damage surfaces. Î Only use lubricants approved by SAMSON. When in doubt, consult SAMSON. Risk of leakage and regulator damage due to excessively high or low tightening torques.

Installation 5.6 Insulation To insulate cold systems, we recommend first filling the plant and carefully rinsing it. The regulator must not yet be insulated at this stage. 1. Start up the plant and adjust the set point (see the 'Start-up' section). 2. Shut down the plant again and let it heat up until the condensation water has dried off.
