3.5 Safety instructions for the operator/user
Isolate the regulator from all system pressure before performing any service procedures. Leakage of any
dangerous liquids (toxic or hot) at any exterior mechanical joint seal must be drained off without any danger to
persons or the environment. All Federal, State and Local Rules regarding chemical disposal and handling must
be followed.
3.6 Safety instructions for maintenance, inspection and installation work
The user must ensure that all maintenance, inspection and installation work is carried out by authorized
personnel, who are familiar with the manual. As a rule all work on the unit should only be carried out after the
regulator has cooled down and pressure has been released. Proper tag out or lockout is strongly
recommended. Immediately after completion of work, all safety and protective devices in system should be
refitted and fully functional. Please observe all relevant system start-up safety rules.
3.7 Unapproved modifications and use of non-genuine spare parts
Modifications or changes to the unit are only permitted upon approval of Barksdale. Only genuine spare parts
and original accessories will ensure the safety of the unit. The use of other than original parts voids the
warranty and will lead to forfeiture of the declaration of conformity and will invalidate any liability for damages
caused thereby.
3.8 Unapproved usage
The operating reliability and safety of the regulator is only valid if used in accordance with its specified
technical limits as described in the Installation and operating instructions. Any other use is not in conformity
with the regulations, and Barksdale will not be liable for any resulting damages.
The installation and operating manual does not invalidate general regulations and standards not referred to
general technical rules should be observed.
