Intended use
The Type4708 Supply Pressure Regulator reduces and controls the maximum pressure of
12bar (180psi) in a compressed air network to the pressure adjusted at the set point
adjuster. The device is designed to operate under exactly dened conditions (e.g. operating
pressure, temperature). Therefore, operators must ensure that the supply pressure regulator is
only used in applications where the operating conditions correspond to the technical data. In
case operators intend to use the supply pressure regulators 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
device for its intended purpose or for damage caused by external forces or any other
external factors.
Î Refer to the technical data for limits and elds of application as well as possible uses.
Reasonablyforeseeablemisuse
The Type4708 Supply Pressure Regulator is not suitable for the following applications:
− Use outside the limits dened during sizing and by the technical data
Furthermore, the following activities do not comply with the intended use:
− Use of non-original spare parts
− Performing maintenance activities not specied by SAMSON
Qualicationsofoperatingpersonnel
The supply pressure regulator must be mounted, started up and serviced by fully trained and
qualied personnel only; the accepted industry codes and practices are to 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 specialized training, their knowledge and experience as well as their
knowledge of the applicable standards.
Personalprotectiveequipment
No personal protective equipment is required for the direct handling of the supply pressure
regulator. Work on the control valve may be necessary when mounting or removing the
device.
