4.2 Removing the packaging
from the regulator
The components (valve, actuator, electric ac-
tuator and, if applicable, control line) of the

valve:
Î Do not open or remove the packaging
until immediately before lifting to install
the regulator into the pipeline.
Î Leave the regulator components in its
transport container or on the pallet to
transport it on site.
Î Do not remove the protective caps from
the inlet and outlet until immediately be-
fore installing the valve into the pipeline.
They prevent foreign particles from enter-
ing the valve.
Î Dispose and recycle the packaging in ac-
cordance with the local regulations.
NOTICE

particles entering the valve.
The protective caps fitted on the inlet and
outlet of the valve with flanged body prevent
foreign particles from entering the valve and
damaging it.
Do not remove the protective caps until im-
mediately before installation.
