3.0 COMMISSIONING THE DEVICE
3.1 OPERATIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
•It is necessary to close the gas upstream of the device prior to installation;
•Check that the line pressure IS WITHIN the P1 range indicated on the label of the product and that IT IS NOT
HIGHER than the maximum value;
•Protective caps (if any) must be removed prior to installation;
•The pipes and inside of the device must be clear of any foreign bodies;
•IMPORTANT: to avoid possible pumping and/or disturbances in the gas flow, a straight pipe section equal to at least 5
DN must be installed (downstream of the regulator).
•IMPORTANT: install manual gas closing devices (e.g. ball valves) upstream and downstream of the regulator to protect
it from any pipe leak test;
•Make sure that the pipe thread is not too long, to prevent damaging the body of the device when screwing it on;
•If the regulator is not fitted with a filter, it is advisable to install an adequate filter upstream;
•With outdoor installation, it is advisable to install a protective roof to prevent rain from oxidising or damaging parts of the
device.
•According to the plant geometry, check the risk of an explosive mixture arising inside the piping;
•If the regulator is installed near other devices or as part of an assembly, compatibility between the regulator and
these devices must be evaluated beforehand;
•Provide a protection against impacts or accidental contacts if the device is accessible to unqualified personnel
.

3.2 INSTALLATION (see example in 3.4)
•Assemble the device by screwing it, with the due seals, onto the plant with pipes and/or fittings whose threads are consistent
with the connection being attached.
•Do not use the neck of the top cover (3) as a lever to help you screw it on, but only use the specific tool;
•The arrow, shown on the body (5) of the device, needs to be pointing towards the application;
•The regulator is normally positioned before the application. Previously evaluate the possibility of installing the regulator as
shown in the installation example in 3.4, namely in an optimal position pos. a(see figures below);
•Should this not be possible, the following factors must be considered:
1. if installed as shown in pos. bthe maximum P2 value declared on the rating plate could be less by a few mbar.
2. if installed as shown in pos. cthe life span of the product could be shorter than the duration that could be obtained
if installed in the optimal position a;
3. if installed as shown in pos. d, besides that indicated for pos. cit is recommended to install a filter after the
regulator that protects it from debris that could enter from downstream from above (due to gravity);
a b dc
•During installation, avoid debris or metal residues from getting into the device;
•To guarantee mechanical tension-free assembly, we recommend using compensating joints, which also adjust to the pipe’s
thermal expansion;
8
EN
•If the device is to be installed in a gas train, it is the installer’s responsibility to provide suitable or correctly sized supports
to hold and secure the assembly. Never, for any reason whatsoever, leave the weight of the gas train only on the connections
(threaded or flanged) of the individual devices;
•In any case, after the installation check the tightness of the system, avoiding to subject the membrane of the regulator
(therefore, the downstream pipe section) to a pressure higher than 200 mbar;

4.0 FIRST STARTUP
Before commissioning, verify that:
•all of the instructions on the rating plate, including the direction of flow, are observed;
•the small hole of the top cover (3) is not obstructed.
•IMPORTANT: The leak test of the piping must be performed while avoiding to subject the membrane of the
regulator (therefore, the downstream pipe section) to a pressure higher than 200 mbar. Use special manual gas
closing devices to prevent damaging the regulator;
•The pressurisation manoeuvre of the equipment must be carried out very slowly so as to avoid possible damage.
NOTE: the small hole of the top cover (3) must not be obstructed for any reason whatsoever otherwise the
regulator might not work;
•Open the downstream shut-off valve very slowly;
• Open the upstream shut-off devices (e.g. ball valves, solenoid valves, OPSO shut-off valve, etc.) very slowly;
•Wait until the downstream pressure stabilises at the calibration value P2 of the spring (indicated on the rating plate);
•Check the tightness of all the system gaskets and check the internal/external tightness of the regulator;
•Check the operation of the regulator.
4.1 - RECOMMENDED PERIODIC CHECKS
•Check the tightness of the flanged/threaded connections on the system;
•Check the tightness and operation of the regulator;
It is the responsibility of the final user or installer to define the frequency of these checks based on the severity of the service conditions.

4.2 - ADJUSTING THE OUTLET PRESSURE
Before starting the system, make sure that the spring supplied with the regulator is suitable for the desired adjustment
pressure. The outlet pressure P2 (unless specifically requested) is factory set with the top cover (3) positioned as shown in
3.2 aand with the adjustment screw (2) set approximately at the minimum calibration value.
If the regulator is installed in different positions, check and reset the outlet pressure P2.
Adjust the outlet pressure as follows:
•Unscrew the cap (1);
• Unscrew the adjustment screw (2) and set it to the minimum calibration allowed (threaded end of the top cover (3));
•Start the system or make sure there is a minimum flow downstream of the regulator;
• To increase the pressure calibration downstream of the regulator, tighten the adjustment screw (2) to the desired value. Perform
the reading with a calibrated pressure gauge, installed downstream of the regulator to at least 5 DN (see example in 3.4);
•Screw the cap (1) back on and if necessary, seal it in that position using the appropriate seal holes (if present);
•Use pressure outlets (6) on the device only for zero flow or very low flow measurements.
4.3 - REPLACING THE SPRING
The step must be carried out without gas inside the regulator.
Replace the spring as follows:
•Unscrew and remove the cap (1) from the top cover (3);
•Completely loosen and take out the adjustment screw (2);
•Remove the spring (14) from the top cover (3) and replace it with the new spring;
•Tighten the adjustment screw (2) and after starting the system as shown in 4.0, set the outlet pressure to the desired value
as shown in 4.2;
•Screw the cap (1) back on and if necessary, seal it in that position using the appropriate seal holes (if present);
