With respect to its design pressure (DP), the equipment does not require any further safety device upstream to protect
against any overpressure when, for the upstream reduction station, the maximum incidental downstream pressure is:
MIPd ≤ 1.1 DP
MIPd = maximum incidental downstream pressure value (for further information, see UNI EN 12186:2014).
ATTENTION!
If the installation of the equipment requires the eld application of compression ttings, these must be
installed in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer of the ttings themselves.
