5.2 Preparation for installation
The regulator is delivered ready for connec-
tion.
Before installation, make sure the following
conditions are met:
− The regulator is clean.
− The regulator and all piping are not
damaged.
− Install a strainer upstream of the regula-
tor.
− The valve data on the nameplate (type
designation, valve size, material, pres-
sure rating and temperature range)
match the plant conditions (size and
pressure rating of the pipeline, medium
temperature etc.). See the 'Markings on
the device' section for nameplate details.
− The requested or required additional fit-
tings (see the 'Design and principle of
operation' section) have been installed or
prepared as necessary before installing
the valve.
Proceed as follows:
Î Lay out the necessary material and tools
to have them ready during installation
work.
Î Flush the pipeline before installing the
regulator.
The plant operator is responsible for
cleaning the pipelines in the plant.
Î Check any mounted pressure gauges to
make sure they function properly.

Note
The plant operator is responsible for clean-
ing the pipelines in the plant.
Note
Any impurities carried along by the process
medium may impair the proper functioning
of the regulator. Therefore, we recommend
installing a strainer (e.g. SAMSON
Type 2 NI) upstream of the regulator.
