Therefore, operators must ensure that the regulators are only used in operating conditions that meet the specifications used for sizing the devices at the ordering stage. In case operators intend to use the regulator in other applications or con- ditions than 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. Î Refer to the technical data and nameplate for limits and fields of application as well as possible uses.

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 To avoid personal injury or property damage, plant operators and operating personnel must prevent hazards that could be caused in the regulators by the process medium, the operating pressure or by moving parts by taking appropriate precautions.

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.
Safety instructions and measures − Mounting and operating instructions as well as data sheets for additional fittings (e.g. shut-off valves, pressure gauges etc.). 1.1 Notes on possible severe personal injury DANGER Risk of bursting in the regulator. Regulators and pipelines are pressure equipment. Impermissible pressure or improper opening of the regulator can lead to regulator components bursting. Î...
Î Wear protective clothing and safety gloves. Damage to health relating to the REACH regulation. If a SAMSON device contains a substance which is listed as being a substance of very high concern on the candidate list of the REACH regulation, this circumstance is indi- cated on the SAMSON delivery note.
Risk of regulator damage due to the use of unsuitable tools. Certain tools are required to work on the regulator. Î Only use tools approved by SAMSON. When in doubt, consult SAMSON. Risk of the process medium being contaminated through the use of unsuitable lubri- cants and/or contaminated tools and components.

Start-up 6.1 Start-up and putting the device back into operation 1. Depending on the field of application, allow the regulator to cool down or warm up to reach ambient temperature before start up. 2. Slowly open the shut-off valves in the pipeline. Slowly opening these valves prevents a sudden surge in pressure and high flow velocities which can damage the valve.
