Installing the regulator 

after service work

 

Î

Put the regulator back into operation (see 

the 'Start-up' section). Make sure the re-
quirements and conditions for start-up or 
putting the valve back into operation are 
met.

9.3 

Service work

 

Î

Before performing any service work, 

preparations must be made to the regu-

lator (see section 9.1).

 

Î

After all service work is completed, check 
the regulator before putting it back into 
operation (see the 'Testing the regulator' 
section).
