Mounting and start-up
Vent plugs
Vent plugs are screwed into the exhaust air
ports of pneumatic and electropneumatic de-
vices. They ensure that any exhaust air that
forms can be vented to the atmosphere (to
avoid excess pressure in the device). Further-
more, the vent plugs allow air intake to pre-
vent a vacuum from forming in the device.
Î Locate the vent plug on the opposite side
to the workplace of operating personnel.
Î On mounting valve accessories, make
sure that they can be operated from the
workplace of the operating personnel.
The workplace of operating personnel is the
location from which the valve, actuator and
any mounted valve accessories can be ac-
cessed to operate them.
5.2.2 Additional ttings
Strainers
We recommend installing a SAMSON
strainer upstream of the valve. It prevents sol-
id particles in the process medium from
damaging the valve.
