1. Target group

The target group of this manual is qualified personnel of the
gas safety and regulating technology. Due to their specialist
training, knowledge and experience, they should be capable
of evaluating the work assigned to them and recognising
possible dangers. Only they are permitted to carry out as-
sembly, commissioning, settings and maintenance on the
devices in compliance with the recognised rules for occupa-
tional safety.

2. Warnings

2.1 General warnings

The recognised occupational safety
rules and accident prevention regula-
tions must be observed and, if neces-
sary, personal protective measures must
be taken.
All adjustments and settings should only
be performed in accordance with the
instruction manuals of the connected
machines.
Never carry out work as long as gas
pressure or voltage is applied. Avoid
open fire. Please observe public regula-
tions.
Prior to assembly, the device must be
inspected for transport damage.
The device must not be exposed to open
fire. Protection against lightning strikes
must be guaranteed.
Connected line systems must be free
from dirt and contamination.
1 ... 68
Hang this instruction manual in a readily visible place
inside the installation room! Do not carry out any work
until you have read the safety instructions of this in-
struction manual and are qualified to do so.
Protection from environmental impacts
and weather conditions (corrosion, rain,
snow, icing, humidity (e.g. by conden-
sation), mould, UV radiation, harmful
insects, poisonous, corrosive solutions/
liquids (e.g. cutting and cooling fluids
must be guaranteed. Depending on the
installation site, it may be necessary to
take protective measures.
The device may only be operated in
compliance with the operating condi-
tions stated on the type plate.
The device must be protected from vi-
brations and mechanical impacts.
The device must not be used in areas
with increased seismic risk.

  • Page 13: Function

    7. Function The pressure regulator’s function is to keep the outlet pressure constant, independent of changes in the inlet pressure and/or in the flow volume. In the depressurised state the regulator is open. The pressure regulator com- plies with the requirements of EN 334 as gas pressure regulator.
