Safety instructions and measures
1 Safety instructions and measures
Intended use
The Type3310 Segmented Ball Valve combined with an actuator, e.g. a SAMSON
Type3278 Pneumatic Rotary Actuator or an AIRTORQUE TypeSRP/DAP Pneumatic Rotary
Actuator is designed for both throttling and on/off service. The control valve is suitable for
liquids, vapors and gases.
The valve with its actuator is designed to operate under exactly dened conditions (e.g.
operating pressure, process medium, temperature). Therefore, operators must ensure that the
control valve is only used in operating conditions that meet the specications used for sizing
the valve at the ordering stage. In case operators intend to use the control valve 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.
ÎRefer to the technical data and nameplate for limits and elds of application as well as
possible uses.
Reasonably foreseeable misuse
The control valve 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 valve accessories connected to the valve
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 control valve 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 specialized training, their knowledge and experience as well as their
knowledge of the applicable standards.

1-2 EB 8222-1 EN
Safety instructions and measures
Personal protective equipment
We recommend checking the hazards posed by the process medium being used (e.g.
uGESTIS (CLP) hazardous substances database). Depending on the process medium and/
or the activity, the protective equipment required includes:
−Protective clothing, gloves, eye protection and respiratory protection in applications with
hot, cold and/or corrosive media
−Wear hearing protection when working near the valve
−Hard hat
−Safety harness when working at height
−Safety footwear, ESD (electrostatic discharge) footwear, if necessary
ÎCheck with the plant operator for details on further protective equipment.
Revisionsandothermodications
Revisions, conversions or other modications of 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 features
The fail-safe position of the control valve upon air supply or control signal failure depends on
the actuator used (see associated actuator documentation). When the valve is combined with
a pneumatic rotary actuator tted with springs, the valve moves to a certain fail-safe position
(see the 'Design and principle of operation' section) upon supply air or control signal failure.
The fail-safe action of the actuator is the same as its direction of action and is specied on
the nameplate of SAMSON actuators.
Warning against residual hazards
To avoid personal injury or property damage, plant operators and operating personnel must
prevent hazards that could be caused in the control valve by the process medium, the operat-
ing pressure, the signal pressure or by moving parts by taking appropriate precautions. Plant
operators and operating personnel must observe all hazard statements, warning and caution
notes in these mounting and operating instructions.
Hazards resulting from the special working conditions at the installation site of the valve must
be identied in a risk assessment and prevented through the corresponding safety instruc-
tions drawn up by the operator.

EB 8222-1 EN 1-3
Safety instructions and measures
Responsibilities of the operator
The operator is responsible for proper operation and compliance with the safety regulations.
Operators are obliged to provide these mounting and operating instructions as well as the
referenced documents to the operating personnel and to instruct them in proper operation.
Furthermore, the operator must ensure that operating personnel or third parties are not ex-
posed to any danger.
The operator is additionally responsible for ensuring that the limits for the product dened in
the technical data are observed. This also applies to the start-up and shutdown procedures.
Start-up and shutdown procedures fall within the scope of the operator's duties and, as such,
are not part of these mounting and operating instructions. SAMSON is unable to make any
statements about these procedures since the operative details (e.g. differential pressures and
temperatures) vary in each individual case and are only known to the operator.
Responsibilities of operating personnel
Operating personnel must read and understand these mounting and operating instructions as
well as the referenced documents and observe the specied hazard statements, warnings
and caution notes. Furthermore, operating personnel must be familiar with the applicable
health, safety and accident prevention regulations and comply with them.
Referenced standards and regulations
The control valves comply with the requirements of the European Pressure Equipment
Directive 2014/68/EU. Valves with a CE marking have a declaration of conformity, which
includes information about the applied conformity assessment procedure. The 'Certicates'
section contains this declaration of conformity.
According to the ignition risk assessment performed in accordance with EN13463-1:2009,
section 5.2, the non-electrical control valves do not have their own potential ignition source
even in the rare incident of an operating fault. As a result, they do not fall within the scope of
Directive 2014/34/EU.
ÎFor connection to the equipotential bonding system, observe the requirements specied in
section6.4 of EN60079-14 (VDE0165-1).

1-4 EB 8222-1 EN
Safety instructions and measures
1.1 Notes on possible severe personal injury
DANGER
!
Risk of bursting in pressure equipment.
Valves and pipelines are pressure equipment. Impermissible pressure or improper
opening can lead to valve components bursting.
ÎObserve the maximum permissible pressure for valve and plant.
ÎBefore starting any work on the control valve, depressurize all plant sections affect-
ed as well as the valve.
ÎDrain the process medium from all the plant sections concerned as well as the
valve.
1.2 Notes on possible personal injury
WARNING
!
Risk of burn injuries due to hot or cold components and pipelines.
Depending on the process medium, valve components and pipelines may get very hot
or cold and cause burn injuries.
ÎAllow components and pipelines to cool down or warm up to the ambient tempera-
ture.
ÎWear protective clothing and safety gloves.
Referenced documentation
The following documents apply in addition to these mounting and operating instructions:
−Mounting and operating instructions for the mounted actuator, e.g. uEB8321 for the
SAMSON Type3278 Pneumatic Rotary Actuator
−Mounting and operating instructions for mounted valve accessories (positioner, solenoid
valve etc.)
−uAB0100 for tools, tightening torques and lubricant

EB 8222-1 EN 1-5
Safety instructions and measures
WARNING
!
Risk of hearing loss or deafness due to loud noise.
The noise emissions depend on the valve version, plant facilities and process medium.
ÎWear hearing protection when working near the valve.
Risk of personal injury due to exhaust air being vented from pneumatically operated
components.
While the valve is operating, air is vented from the actuator, for example, during
closed-loop operation or when the valve opens or closes.
ÎInstall the control valve in such a way that vent holes are not located at eye level and
the actuator does not vent at eye level in the work position.
ÎUse suitable silencers and vent plugs.
ÎWear eye protection when working in close proximity to the control valve.
Crush hazard arising from moving parts.
The valve's segmented ball turns in the valve body which can lead to crush injuries to
hands or ngers if they are inserted into the valve.
ÎDo not insert hands or ngers into the valve body.
ÎBefore working on the control valve, release any energy (in the actuator) which
causes the valve shaft to move (e.g. also the spring compression).
ÎBefore working on the control valve, disconnect and lock the pneumatic air supply
as well as the control signal.
ÎDisconnect the supply voltage before performing any work on the control valve.
ÎDo not impede the rotary motion of the segmented ball by inserting objects into its
path.
ÎBefore attempting to unblock a segmented ball after it has become blocked (e.g. due
to seizing up after remaining in the same position for a long time), release any en-
ergy (in the actuator) which causes the valve shaft to move.
Risk of personal injury due to preloaded springs.
Valves in combination with pneumatic actuators with preloaded springs are under ten-
sion.
ÎBefore starting any work on the actuator, relieve the compression from the preload-
ed springs (see associated actuator documentation).

1-6 EB 8222-1 EN
Safety instructions and measures
WARNING
!
Risk of personal injury due to residual process medium in the valve.
While working on the valve, residual medium can ow out of the valve and, depending
on its properties, cause personal injury, e.g. (chemical) burns.
ÎIf possible, drain the process medium from all the plant sections affected and the
valve.
ÎWear protective clothing, safety gloves, respiratory protection and eye protection.
Risk of personal injury through incorrect operation, use or installation as a result of
information on the valve being illegible.
Over time, markings, labels and nameplates on the valve may become covered with dirt
or become illegible in some other way. As a result, hazards may go unnoticed and the
necessary instructions not followed. There is a risk of personal injury.
ÎKeep all relevant markings and inscriptions on the device in a constantly legible
state.
ÎImmediately renew damaged, missing or incorrect nameplates or labels.
1.3 Notes on possible property damage
NOTICE
!
Risk of valve damage due to contamination (e.g. solid particles) in the pipeline.
The plant operator is responsible for cleaning the pipelines in the plant.
ÎFlush the pipelines before start-up.
Risk of valve damage due to unsuitable medium properties.
The valve is designed for a process medium with dened properties.
ÎOnly use the process medium specied for sizing.
Risk of leakage and valve damage due to excessively high or low tightening torques.
Observe the specied torques when tightening control valve components. Excessive
tightening torques lead to parts wearing out more quickly. Parts that are too loose may
cause leakage.
ÎObserve the specied tightening torques (uAB0100).

EB 8222-1 EN 1-7
Safety instructions and measures
NOTICE
!
Risk of valve damage due to the use of unsuitable tools.
Certain tools are required to work on the valve.
ÎOnly use tools approved by SAMSON (uAB0100).
Risk of valve damage due to the use of unsuitable lubricants.
The lubricants to be used depend on the valve material. Unsuitable lubricants may cor-
rode and damage surfaces.
ÎOnly use lubricants approved by SAMSON (uAB0100).
Risk of the process medium being contaminated through the use of unsuitable
lubricants and/or contaminated tools and components.
ÎIf necessary, keep the valve and the tools used free from solvents and grease.
ÎMake sure that only suitable lubricants are used.
1.4 Warnings on the device
Warning Meaning of the warning Location on the device
Warning against moving parts
There is a risk of injury to hands or ngers due to the
rotary motion of the segmented ball in the valve body
and the shaft. Hands or ngers could be crushed if
inserted into the valve body or yoke and energy from the
actuator (e.g. signal pressure or spring compression)
causes the valve shaft to move.

Design and principle of operation
3 Design and principle of oper-
ation
The Type3310 Valve is a segmented ball
valve. This valve is preferably to be com-
bined with:
−AIRTORQUE TypeSRP or TypeDAP
Pneumatic Rotary Actuator
or
−SAMSON Type3278 Pneumatic Rotary
Actuator
or
−Electric actuator.
The control valve is designed for both throt-
tling and on/off service. The control valve is
suitable for liquids, vapors and gases at tem-
peratures from –40 to +450°C and pressure
rating of PN10 to 40/Class150 and 300.
The segmented ball valve in valve sizes
NPS1 to 12 is available with a soft-seated
or metal-seated ball. The version used is
marked on the nameplate of the valve body
(see the 'Markings on the device' section).
The process medium ows through the valve.
The signal pressure applied to the rotary ac-
tuator determines the position (opening an-
gle) of the segmented ball (7) and thus the
cross-sectional area of ow between the ball
and body (5). The actuator motion is trans-
mitted to the segmented ball valve by the
valve shaft (12) with square or key drive. The
valve shaft (12) is sealed by a packing (40).
3.1 Fail-safe action
3.1.1 Single-actingTypeSRP
andType3278Pneu-
matic Rotary Actuators
The fail-safe position of the valve upon sup-
ply air (signal pressure) failure is determined
by the version of the single-acting AIR
TORQUE TypeSRP Pneumatic Rotary Actua-
tor.
The fail-safe position of the valve upon sup-
ply air (signal pressure) failure is determined
by how the actuator is mounted when a
SAMSON Type3278 Pneumatic Rotary Ac-
tuator is used.

Design and principle of operation
a) Fail-close
When the pressure is relieved from the rota-
ry actuator or the supply air fails, the actua-
tor springs close the valve. The valve opens
opposing the force of the actuator springs
when the signal pressure increases.
b) Fail-open
When the pressure is relieved from the rota-
ry actuator or the supply air fails, the actua-
tor springs open the valve. The valve closes
opposing the force of the actuator springs
when the signal pressure increases.
3.1.2 Double-actingTypeDAP
Pneumatic Rotary
Actuator
The double-acting AIR TORQUE TypeDAP
Rotary Actuator is not tted with springs. A
dened nal position is not reached when
the supply air fails.
3.2 Versions
Actuators
In these instructions, the preferable combina-
tion with a SAMSON Type3278 Pneumatic
Rotary Actuator or AIRTORQUE TypeSRP/
DAP Pneumatic Rotary Actuator is described.
The pneumatic actuator (with or without
handwheel) can be replaced by an electric
actuator.
3.3 Additionalttings
Bypass and shut-off valves
We recommend installing a shut-off valve
both upstream and downstream of the valve
and installing a bypass line. The bypass en-
sures that the plant does not need to be shut
down for service and repair work on the
valve.
3.4 Valve accessories
The signal pressure connection of the rotary
actuator is designed as a borehole with a
G
1
/
8
female thread for small actuators and
with G¼ female thread for large actuators.
The connection allows in compliance with
VDE/VDE3845 guidelines the connection of
a solenoid valve, limit switch or positioner
(see Information Sheet uT 8350). Mounting
parts are available for SAMSON valve ac-
cessories. See actuator documentation.

3.5 Technical data
The nameplates on the valve and actuator
provide information on the control valve ver-
sion. See the 'Markings on the device' sec-
tion.
More information is available in Data Sheet

Noise emissions
SAMSON is unable to make general state-
ments about noise emissions. The noise emis-
sions depend on the valve version, plant fa-
cilities and process medium.
