Periodic Testing - Samson 3241-1-Gas Mounting And Operating Instructions

Note
The control valve was checked by SAMSON
before it left the factory.
− Certain test results certified by SAMSON
lose their validity when the valve is
opened. Such testing includes seat leakage
and leak tests.
− After completing servicing work, the gas-
tight shut-off of the valve must be tested.
This test must be performed by fully
trained, qualified operating personnel.
− The product warranty becomes void if ser-
vice or repair work not described in these
instructions is performed without prior
agreement by SAMSON's after-sales ser-
vice.
− Only use original spare parts by SAM-
SON, which comply with the original spec-
ifications.
We recommend the following inspection and testing which can be performed while the pro‑
cess is running:
Inspection and testing
