WARNING
!
Crush hazard arising from moving parts.
The regulator contains moving parts (set point springs), which can injure hands or fin-
gers if inserted into the regulator.
Î Do not insert hands or fingers between the set point springs while the regulator is in
operation.
Î Before performing any work on the regulator, depressurize the plant. Disconnect or
shut off the control line.
Risk of personal injury due to loaded springs.
The set point springs of regulators with adjusted set point are preloaded and are under
tension.
Î Before starting any work on the springs, relieve the compression from the preloaded
springs.
Risk of personal injury due to pressurized components and process medium being
discharged.
Incorrect opening of pressure equipment or mounting parts may lead to the process
medium escaping to the atmosphere.
Î Do not loosen the control line while the valve is pressurized.
Î Do not start up the regulator until all parts have been mounted.
Risk of burn injuries due to hot or cold components and pipelines.
Depending on the process medium, regulator components and pipelines may get very
hot or cold and cause burn injuries.
Î Allow components and pipelines to cool down or warm up to the ambient tempera-
ture.
Î Wear protective clothing and safety gloves.
