5.2 Preparation for installation

The valve and control thermostat of regula-
tors that have not yet been assembled can
be assembled before or after the valve has
been installed in the pipeline. We recom-
mend first installing the valve without the
control thermostat into the pipeline.
Before installation, make sure the following
conditions are met:
− The valve and control thermostat are
clean.
− The valve, control thermostat and ther-
mowell (if used) are not damaged.
− Install a strainer upstream of the valve.
− The valve and control thermostat data on
the nameplates (type designation, valve
size, material, pressure rating and tem-
perature range) match the plant condi-
tions (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:

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.
