    In case operators intend to use the devices in applications or conditions other than those 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.
  • Page 6 Î Wear hearing protection when working near the valve. Follow the instructions given by the plant operator. 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. Warning against residual hazards...
  • Page 7 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.

    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 sealants or lubricants. The sealants and lubricants to be used depend on the regulator material. Unsuitable sealants and lubricants may corrode and damage surfaces. Î Only use sealants and lubricants approved by SAMSON (see section 7.3). Incorrect control due to the formation of ice on the regulator. Medium temperatures below 0 °C may cause ice to form on the regulator, depending on the air humidity.
