4 Maintenance
CAUTION!
Prior to performing any work on the regula-
tors, decommission the plant by slowly clos-
ing the shut-off valves. Depressurize and, de-
pending on the process medium, drain the
plant section as well.
CAUTION!
Regulators for oxygen service are labeled to
indicate that the regulators must be kept free
of oil and grease for oxygen service.
These versions are cleaned and assembled
under special conditions. Gloves must be
worn when exchanging parts which come
into contact to oxygen. These parts must not
come into contact with oil or grease.
When returning regulators for oxygen service
to SAMSON for repair, the sender is respon-
sible for ensuring that the regulators are han-
dled in conformance with the specifications in
the German regulation VBG 62 or equivalent
regulations until receipt at SAMSON. If this is
not the case, SAMSON AG will not assume
any responsibility for the suitability of these
regulators for oxygen service.
If the point at which the regulator closes devi-
ates strongly from the adjusted set point, shut-
off may be impaired because the seat and
plug are clogged up with dirt or due to natu-
ral wear.
In this case, remove the regulator from the
pipeline and clean it. If necessary, replace the
plug seal with a new one.
