    SAMSON does not assume any liability for damage resulting from the failure to use the device for its intended purpose or for damage caused by external forces or any other external factors.
  • Page 6 Revisions and other modifications Revisions, conversions or other modifications to 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. Safety features The safety function of the Type 3755 Pneumatic Volume Booster is the emergency venting on demand. 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 control valve by the process medium, the operating pressure, the signal pressure or by moving parts by taking appropriate precautions. They must observe all hazard statements, warning and caution notes in these...
