–
Remove the crossbeam (8) from the
valve.
Unscrew the pillars (8.1).
Screw the pillars into the threaded holes
(8.3) of the actuator flange as far as they
will go.
Push the actuator with actuator stem (11)
onto the spigots of the bellows (5.1).
Fasten the pillars (8.1) with the nuts (8.2)
onto the valve flange. Observe the tight-
ening torques specified in section 7.5.
7. Mount the control line (17) onto the valve
and actuator.
For steam or liquids above 150 °C in-
stall the compensation chamber and fill it
with the process medium. Observe the
tightening torques specified in sec-

Pipeline flushing

SAMSONWe recommend flushing the pipe-
line with installed regulator before start-up.
Î Unscrew the control line (see Fig. 3).
Î Seal the valve body with G ¼ stoppers.
Î Observe the mesh size of the upstream
strainer for the maximum particle size.
Use strainers to suit the process medium.
Î Check the strainer for dirt each time the
pipeline is flushed and clean it, if neces-
sary.
If the regulator malfunctions due to clogging
after flushing the pipeline, proceed as de-
scribed in Table 9.
