5 Installation
The work described in this section is only to
be performed by personnel appropriately
qualiedtocarryoutsuchtasks.
5.1 Installation conditions
Work position
The work position for the regulator is the
front view onto all operating controls on the
regulator(includinganyadditionalttings)
seen from the position of operating person-
nel.
Plant operators must ensure that, after instal-
lation of the device, the operating personnel
can perform all necessary work safely and
easily access the device from the work posi-
tion.
Pipeline routing
The inlet and outlet lengths vary depending
on several variables and process conditions
andareintendedasrecommendations.Con-
tactSAMSONifthelengthsaresignicantly
shorter than the recommended lengths.
To ensure that the regulator functions proper-
ly, proceed as follows:
Î Observe the inlet and outlet lengths (see
Table 5-1).ContactSAMSONifthereg-
ulator conditions or state of the medium
process deviate.
Î Install the regulator free of stress and
with the least amount of vibrations as
possible. Read information under
“Mounting position” and “Support or
suspension” in this section.
Î For media with a tendency to conden-
sate, install the pipeline with a slight
downward slope on both sides so that
the condensate can drain properly. If the
pipeline upstream and downstream of
the regulator run vertically upwards, an
automatic drainage is required.
Î Installtheregulatorallowingsufcient
space to remove the control thermostat
and valve or to perform service work on
them.
Mounting position
To ensure that the regulator functions proper-
ly, proceed as follows:
Î Standard mounting position: install the
control thermostat suspended downward
inhorizontalpipelines(seeFig.5-1 and
Fig.5-2).
Î Makesurethedirectionofowmatches
the direction indicated by the arrow on
the body.
Î ContactSAMSONifthemountingposi-
tionisnotasspeciedabove.
Damage due to freezing.
Protect the regulator from icing up when con-
trolling media that can freeze. Unless the
regulator is installed in locations where no
frost occurs, remove the regulator from the
pipeline when the plant is shut down.
