Safety instructions and measures
Personal protective equipment
We recommend checking the hazards posed by the process medium being used (e.g.
uGESTIS(CLP)hazardoussubstancesdatabase).Dependingontheprocessmediumand/
or the activity, the protective equipment required includes:
− Protectiveclothing,safetyglovesandeyeprotectioninapplicationswithhot,coldand/or
corrosive media
− Wear hearing protection when working near the valve. Follow the instructions given by
the plant operator.
− Hard hat
− Safety harness, e.g. when working at height
− Safety footwear, if applicable ESD (electrostatic discharge) footwear
Î Checkwiththeplantoperatorfordetailsonfurtherprotectiveequipment.
Revisions and other modications
Revisions,conversionsorothermodicationsof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.
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 regulator by the process medium, the operating
pressure or by moving parts by taking appropriate precautions. Plant operators and operat-
ing personnel must observe all hazard statements, warnings and caution notes in these
mounting and operating instructions.
Hazards resulting from the special working conditions at the installation site of the regulator
mustbeidentiedinariskassessmentandpreventedthroughthecorrespondingsafetyin-
structions drawn up by the operator.
We also recommend checking the hazards posed by the process medium being used (e.g.
uGESTIS(CLP)hazardoussubstancesdatabase).
Î Observesafetymeasuresforhandlingthedeviceaswellasrepreventionandexplosion
protection measures.
These mounting and operating instructions deals with the standard version of the device.
Componentsofthedevicethatdiffertothoseusedforthestandardversiondescribedinthis
