Intended use
TheSAMSONType3271andType3277Actuatorsaredesignedforoperatingamounted
globevalve.Incombinationwiththevalve,theactuatorisusedtoshutofftheowofliquids,
gases or vapors in the pipeline. Depending on the version, the actuator is suitable for throt-
tling or on/off service. The actuator can be used in processing and industrial plants.
Theactuatorisdesignedtooperateunderexactlydenedconditions(e.g.thrust,travel).
Therefore, operators must ensure that the actuator is only used in operating conditions that
meetthespecicationsusedforsizingtheactuatorattheorderingstage.Incaseoperators
intendtousetheactuatorinotherapplicationsorconditionsthanspecied,contact
SAMSON.
SAMSON does not assume any liability for damage resulting from the failure to use the de-
vice for its intended purpose or for damage caused by external forces or any other external
factors.
Î Refertothetechnicaldataandnameplateforlimitsandeldsofapplicationaswellas
possible uses.
Reasonably foreseeable misuse
The actuator is not suitable for the following applications:
− Useoutsidethelimitsdenedduringsizingandbythetechnicaldata
− Useoutsidethelimitsdenedbytheaccessoriesconnectedtotheactuator
Furthermore, the following activities do not comply with the intended use:
− Use of non-original spare parts
− Performing service and repair work not described
Qualications of operating personnel
The actuator must be mounted, started up, serviced and repaired by fully trained and quali-
edpersonnelonly;theacceptedindustrycodesandpracticesmustbeobserved.According
to these mounting and operating instructions, trained personnel refers to individuals who are
abletojudgetheworktheyareassignedtoandrecognizepossiblehazardsduetotheirspe-
cializedtraining,theirknowledgeandexperienceaswellastheirknowledgeoftheapplica-
ble standards.
