7.3 Replacing the set point
springs
Risk of personal injury due to preloaded
springs.
Regulators in combination with preloaded
set point springs are under tension. These
regulators can be identified by the red warn
-
ing label on the actuator's set point springs.
−
Before starting any work on the springs,
relieve the compression from the preloaded
springs.
−
Only use the SAMSON disassembly tool
(1280-4052).
Risk of regulator damage due to excessively
high or low tightening torques.
Observe the specified torques on tightening
regulator components. Excessively tightened
torques lead to parts wearing out quicker.
Parts that are too loose may cause leakage.
Observe the specified tightening torques.
Risk of TÜV approval (based on AGFW
worksheet FW 506) for Types 44-4 and
44-8 becoming void.
Consult SAMSON's After-sales Service de-
partment before you change parts or per-
form service or repair work on TÜV-tested
Type 44-4 and Type 44-8 Regulators.
