Î Check with the plant operator for details on further protective equipment. Revisions and other modifications Revisions, conversions or other modifications to 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.
Safety instructions and measures Referenced standards and regulations The control valves meet the requirements in the Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004 for materi- als and articles intended to come into contact with food The control valves comply with the requirements of the European Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU.
Risk of personal injury due to preloaded springs. Valves in combination with pneumatic actuators with preloaded springs are under ten- sion. These control valves with SAMSON pneumatic actuators can be identified by the long bolts protruding from the bottom of the actuator.
Parts that are too loose may cause leak- age. Î Observe the specified tightening torques (u AB 0100). Risk of valve damage due to the use of unsuitable tools. Certain tools are required to work on the valve. Î Only use tools approved by SAMSON (u AB 0100). EB 8048-2/-3 EN...
