WARNING

Only qualified personnel should install or service

a regulator. Regulators should be installed,

operated, and maintained in accordance

with international and applicable codes and

regulations, and Emerson Process Management

Regulator Technologies, Inc. instructions.
If the regulator vents fluid or a leak develops in

the system, it indicates that service is required.

Failure to take the regulator out of service

immediately may create a hazardous condition.
Personal injury, equipment damage, or leakage

due to escaping fluid or bursting of pressure-

containing parts may result if this regulator

is overpressured or is installed where service

conditions could exceed the limits given in the

Specifications section, or where conditions

exceed any ratings of the adjacent piping or

piping connections.
To avoid such injury or damage, provide

pressure-relieving or pressure-limiting devices

(as required by the appropriate code, regulation,

or standard) to prevent service conditions from

exceeding limits.
Additionally, physical damage to the regulator

could result in personal injury and property

damage due to escaping fluid. To avoid such

injury and damage, install the regulator in a

safe location.

Clean out all pipelines before installation of the regulator and

check to be sure the regulator has not been damaged or has

collected foreign material during shipping. For NPT bodies,

apply pipe compound to the external pipe threads. For flanged

bodies, use suitable line gaskets and approved piping and bolting

practices. Install the regulator in any position desired, unless

otherwise specified, but be sure flow through the body is in the

direction indicated by the arrow on the body.

Note

It is important that the regulator be installed so that

the vent hole in the spring case is unobstructed at

all times. For outdoor installations, the regulator

should be located away from vehicular traffic and

positioned so that water, ice, and other foreign

materials cannot enter the spring case through the

vent. Avoid placing the regulator beneath eaves or

downspouts, and be sure it is above the probable

snow level.
