 Safety instructions

General safety instructions

 The pressure regulator may only be mounted, started up or serviced by fully
trained and qualified personnel, observing the accepted industry codes and
practices. Make sure employees or third persons are not exposed to any
danger.
 The pressure regulator fulfils the requirements of the European Pressure Equip -
ment Directive 97/23/EC. Valves with a CE marking have a declaration of
conformity which includes information about the applied conformity assess -
ment procedure. The declaration can be viewed and downloaded on the Inter -
net at http://www.samson.de.
 For appropriate operation, make sure that the regulator is only used in areas
where the operating pressure and temperatures do not exceed the operating
values which are based on the valve sizing data submitted in the order.
The manufacturer does not assume any responsibility for damage caused by
external forces or any other external influence!
Any hazards which could be caused in the pressure regulator by the process
medium, the operating pressure or by moving parts are to be prevented by
means of the appropriate measures.
 Proper shipping and appropriate storage are assumed.
Caution!
 Self-operated regulators must not be put into operation before all compo -
nents, e.g. valve, actuator and control lines, have been mounted.
Open all control lines and check that they are correctly connected prior to
start-up.
 When removing the self-operated regulator from the pipeline, make sure the
sections of the pipeline that the control lines are connected to are also depress -
urized. If this is not possible, shut off the control lines.
 Allow the plant to fill slowly on start-up.
On pressurizing the plant to carry out a pressure test, make sure the dia -
phragm actuator is not damaged by the test pressure.
The maximum permissible pressure in the actuator must not be exceeded. Dis -
connect all external control lines.
 Make sure the regulators are frost protected when they are used to control
freezing process media, e.g. water. If the regulator is installed in locations sub -
ject to frost, the regulator must be removed from the pipeline when it is not
operated.

 Design and principle of operation

1. Design and principle of operation Depending on the valve and actuator used,
the regulator can be extended to form a mil-
The Type 41-73 Excess Pressure Valve con- libar excess pressure valve or a safety ex-
sists of a Type 2417 Opening Valve and a cess pressure valve.
Type 2413 Actuator.
The valve and actuator are delivered as sep-
arate items and must be assembled accord-
ing to the instructions in section 2.1.
The excess pressure valve is used to main-
tain the pressure upstream of the valve at
an adjusted set point.
The process medium to be regulated flows
through the valve between the seat (2) and the
plug (3) in the direction indicated by the
arrow on the body. The position of the valve
plug determines the flow rate, and thus the
pressure ratio at the valve. The plug stem is
sealed by a frictionless metal bellows (5.1).

 Installation
2. Installation
2.1 Assembly
Valve and actuator can be assembled be-
fore or after the control valve has been in-
stalled in the pipeline.
Push the actuator (10) with the actuator
stem (11) through the hole in the bracket (8)
onto the spigot of the bellows seal (5.1).
Align and secure it with the nuts (9, width
across flats SW 17).
For actuators with metal bellows in sizes
DN 65 to 100, remove the bracket (8) from
the valve and unscrew the pillar.
Screw the pillar into the actuator flange.
Push the actuator onto the valve and secure
the pillar at the valve flange using nuts.
2.2 Mounting position
Caution!
Flush the pipeline thoroughly before install-
ing the regulator to ensure that any sealing
parts, weld spatter and other impurities car-
ried along by the process medium do not
impair the proper functioning of the valve,
above all the tight shut-off.
A strainer (SAMSON Type 2) must be in-
stalled upstream of the regulator (see sec-
tion 2.4).
Install the pressure reducing valve in a hori-
zontal pipeline. On installing the valve,
make sure the direction of flow corresponds
with the arrow on the body.
For media with a tendency to condensate,
install the pipeline with a slight downward
slope on both sides so that the condensate
can drain properly.
6 EB 2517 EN
If the pipeline upstream and downstream of
the valve is routed vertically upwards, an
automatic water drainage (SAMSON
Type 13E Steam Trap) is required.
Make sure you choose a place of installa-
tion that allows you to freely access the
regulator even after the entire plant has
been completed.
The regulator must be installed free of
stress. If necessary, support the piping near
the connections.
Caution!
Never attach supports directly to the valve
or actuator.
Do not install any devices (e.g. temperature
regulators or shut-off valves) which restrict
the cross-section of the pipe between the
pressure tapping point and the control valve.
If a bypass line is to be used, it must be con-
nected upstream of the pressure tapping
point. Install a shut-off valve in the bypass
line.
Standard mounting position for
medium temperatures above 0 °C.
Not permissible for millibar excess
pressure valves!
Optional mounting position for gases
and liquids up to medium temperatures
of 80 °C. Mandatory mounting posi-
tion for millibar excess pressure valves.
Not permissible.

 Operation
2.4 Strainer
The strainer must be installed upstream of
the excess pressure valve.
Make sure the direction of medium flow
corresponds with the direction indicated by
the arrow on the strainer. The filter element
must be vertically suspended. Remember to
leave enough space to remove it.
2.5 Shut-off valve
We recommend to install a hand-operated
shut-off valve both upstream of the strainer
and downstream of the regulator to be able
to shut down the plant for cleaning and
maintenance, and when the plant is not
used for longer periods of time.
2.6 Pressure gauge
To monitor the pressures in the plant, install
a pressure gauge both upstream and down-
stream of the regulator. Note that the press-
ure gauge on the upstream side should not
be installed upstream of the pressure tap-
ping point.
8 EB 2517 EN
3. Operation
3.1 Start-up
Caution!
For millibar excess pressure valves
(1200 cm2 actuator), the max. permissible
differential pressure is 10 bar. The max. per -
missible pressure at the actuator must not ex -
ceed 0.5 bar.
For regulating steam:
Unscrew filler neck (19) on the condensa-
tion chamber. Using either the included
plastic funnel or a jug, pour in water until it
starts to overflow.
Screw the filler neck back in and tighten it.
The excess pressure valve is now ready for
operation.
Open the hand-operated shut-off valves
slowly to prevent water hammer.
For regulating liquids:
To start up the excess pressure valve, open
shut-off valves slowly.
For actuators with an effective diaphragm
area of 640 cm2, loosen the vent screw.
Allow all the air to escape, then retighten it.
For temperatures above 150 °C, the necess-
ary condensation chamber must first be
filled with the process medium.
3.2 Set point adjustment
The required upstream pressure (excess
pressure) is set by turning the set point ad-
justment (6) using an open-end wrench − up
to DN 50 with width across flats SW 19
and for DN 65 and larger with SW 22.

Turning clockwise increases the upstream
pressure, turning counterclockwise reduces
it. The pressure gauge located on the up-
stream pressure side allows the adjusted set
point to be monitored.
4. Maintenance – Troubleshooting
The excess pressure valve is maintenance
free. Nevertheless, it is subject to natural
wear, particularly at the seat, plug and
operating diaphragm.
Depending on the operating conditions, the
regulator needs to be checked at regular in-
tervals to avoid possible malfunctions.
Details on faults and how to correct them
can be found in the table on page 10.
If a problem cannot be solved with the help
of the information specified in the table, con-
tact SAMSON.
Note!
If a repair is performed by the plant oper-
ator, make absolutely sure that no torque is
applied to the bellows seal (5.1) during as-
sembly or disassembly. Otherwise, the met-
al bellows would be destroyed.
Caution!
When working on the pressure regu-
lator, make sure the relevant section
of the pipeline is depressurized and,
depending on the process medium,
drained as well. For high tempera-
tures, allow the regulator to cool
down to ambient temperature be-
fore starting any work on it.
The control line must be interrupted
or shut off to avoid any hazards
which could be caused by moving
Maintenance – Troubleshooting
parts of the regulator.
As valves are not free of cavities,
remember that residual process
medium might still be contained in
the valve. This applies in particular
to valve versions with a balancing
bellows.
It is recommended to remove the
valve from the pipeline.
4.1 Replacing the operating dia-
phragm
If the excess pressure deviates from the set
point considerably, check if the diaphragm
is leaking and, if necessary, replace it.
1. Shut down the plant by slowly closing
the shut-off valves. Relieve the relevant
section of the pipeline of pressure and,
if necessary, drain it as well.
2. Unscrew the control line (17) and clean
it.
3. Loosen the bolts (15) at the actuator
and remove the cover plate.
4. Unscrew the nut (14) and lift off the dia-
phragm plate (13).
5. Replace the operating diaphragm (12)
with a new one.
6. Proceed in the reverse order to reas-
semble the regulator. For start-up, pro-
ceed as described in section 3.1.

Principle of operation (see Fig. 2)
The medium flows through the valve (1) as indicated by the
arrow. The position of the valve plug (3) and the area released
between the plug and seat (2) determine the flow rate. The plug
stem (5) with the plug is connected to the stem (11) of the
actuator (10).
To control the pressure, the operating diaphragm (12) is
tensioned by the positioning springs (7) and the set point
adjuster (6) so that the valve is closed by the force of the
positioning springs when it is relieved of pressure (p1= p2).
The upstream pressure p1 to be controlled is tapped upstream of
the valve and transmitted via the control line (14) to the
operating diaphragm (12) where it is converted into a
positioning force. This force is used to move the valve plug (3)
according to the force of the positioning springs (7), which is
adjustable at the set point adjuster (6). When the force resulting
from the upstream pressure p1 rises above the adjusted set
point, the valve opens proportionally to the change in pressure.
The fully balanced valves are equipped with a balancing
bellows (4). The downstream pressure p2 acts on the inside of
the bellows, whereas the upstream pressure p1 acts on the
outside of the bellows. As a result, the forces produced by the
upstream and downstream pressures acting on the plug are
balanced.
The valves are available with flow divider St I. When the flow
divider St I is retrofitted, the valve seat must be replaced.

Installation
Normally, the valve is installed with the actuator suspended
downwards. Install pipelines horizontally with a slight
downward slope on both sides of the valve for drainage of the
condensate.
Millibar excess pressure valves are to be installed standing
upright with the actuator pointing upwards.
For further details on installation, refer to Mounting and
Operating Instructions EB 2517 EN.
The direction of medium flow must correspond with the arrow
on the valve body.
– Valve and actuator are delivered separately.
– The control line must be adapted to match the onsite condi-
tions and is not delivered with the valve; on customer re-
quest, a control line kit for the direct pressure tapping at the
valve body (see accessories) is available.
Accessories
– Screw joints for connection of the control line 3 8” to the filler
neck (included in the scope of delivery and in the price).
Other screw joints are available on request.
– Condensation chamber for steam condensation and protec-
tion of the operating diaphragm against extreme tempera-
tures. This chamber is necessary for steam and liquids above
150 °C.
– Control line kit - optionally with or without condensation
chamber - for direct attachment to the valve and actuator
(pressure tapped directly at the valve body, for set points
≥ 0.8 bar).
Detailed information on accessories can be found in Data Sheet
T 2595 EN.

Intermediate Tank for
Controllers
Type 39-2 (2392), Type 41-23 (2412/2413) and
Type 41-73 (2417/2413)
and Actuators
Types 2415, 2418, 2424, 2425, 2426, 2427 and 2429

1. Application
To ensure proper functioning of the controller
versions listed above, an intermediate tank is
to be installed in each associated control line.
This tank is intended to protect the operating
diaphragm of the connected actuator when
steam and liquids above 150 °C are control-
led.

Edition January 1995 Mounting and operating instructions

EB 2595 E
2. Installation
The control line is to be installed laterally at
the pipe in the middle of the pipeline or dis-
tributor. This line is to be installed with a
steady upward slope (1:10) towards the in-
termediate tank.
The mounting position of the tank is indicated
by a label marked with an arrow and the
word "top" impressed on top of the tank. This
mounting position is coercive to ensure safe
operation of the controller.
Weld the control line coming from the tap-
ping point to the R 3/8 pipe socket of the in-
termediate tank.
The intermediate tank must always be in-
stalled at the highest point of the control line.
This means, the control line connecting the in-
termediate tank and the diaphragm chamber
of the actuator is to be also installed with a
downward slope.
3. Operation
To place the intermediate tank into service,
remove the filler plug at the tank and the vent
screw at the diaphragm actuator.
Then, use the enclosed plastics funnel tube or
a can having a bent spout to fill water (in case
of steam control) through the associated filler
socket into the intermediate tank. Fill up
water until it escapes at the vent hole.
Tighten vent screw at the actuator and fill up
water until it spills over at the filler socket of
the tank.
Reinstall filler plug and screw it tight.
If liquids are controlled, fill up the intermedi-
ate tank with the corresponding medium.
