  • Page 5: Safety Instructions And Measures

    SAMSON. SAMSON does not assume any liability for damage resulting from the failure to use the device for its intended purpose or for damage caused by external forces or any other external factors.
  • Page 6 Î Check with the plant operator for details on further protective equipment. Revisions and other modifications Revisions, conversions or other modifications of the product are not authorized by SAMSON. They are performed at the user's own risk and may lead to safety hazards, for example. Fur- thermore, the product may no longer meet the requirements for its intended use.
  • Page 7: Notes On Possible Severe Personal Injury

    Safety instructions and measures 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.
  • Page 8: Notes On Possible Personal Injury

    Î Before starting any work on the set point springs, relieve the compression from the preloaded springs. Î Only use the SAMSON disassembly tool (1280-4052). Crush hazard arising from moving parts. The regulator contains moving parts (actuator and plug stem), which can injure hands or fingers if inserted into the valve.
  • Page 9: Notes On Possible Property Damage

    Î Wear protective clothing and safety gloves. Damage to health relating to the REACH regulation. If a SAMSON device contains a substance listed as a substance of very high concern on the candidate list of the REACH regulation, this is indicated on the SAMSON delivery note.
  • Page 10 Risk of regulator damage due to the use of unsuitable lubricants. The lubricants to be used depend on the regulator material. Unsuitable lubricants may corrode and damage surfaces. Î Only use lubricants approved by SAMSON. Risk of leakage and regulator damage due to excessively high or low tightening torques.
