Risk of personal injury due to residual process medium in the valve.
While working on the valve, residual medium can flow out of the valve and, depending
on its properties, cause personal injury, e.g. (chemical) burns.

If possible, drain the process medium from all the plant sections affected and the
valve.

state.
Î
Immediately renew damaged, missing or incorrect nameplates or labels.
