ing the pipelines in the plant.
Î Check the regulator to make sure that it
is clean.
Î Check the regulator for damage.
Î Check to make sure that the type desig-
nation, valve size, material, pressure rat-
ing and temperature range of the regula-

pressure rating of the pipeline, medium
temperature etc.).
Î Check any mounted pressure gauges to
make sure they function.

NOTICE NOTICE
! !
Risk of overheating due to excessive ambi-
ent temperatures or insufficient heat dissi-
pation when components are insulated.
− Do not include the regulator in the insula-
tion of the pipeline.
NOTICE
