Installation
WARNING
Always wear protective clothing, gloves, and eyewear when performing any installation procedures to avoid personal
injury.
System damage may result if a volume booster is installed in a way that it can be physically damaged.
Personal injury or system damage may result when service conditions exceed booster or other equipment ratings.
Exceeding the pressure specifications in table 1 may cause leakage, parts damage, or personal injury due to bursting of
pressure-containing parts or explosion of accumulated gas.
Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
Note
Do not use separate pressure supplies for the volume booster and associated positioner.
The volume booster may not exhaust immediately upon loss of a separate pressure supply. However, if the system is in a transient
state at the time of pressure supply loss or if changes to the booster's input signal are sufficient to overcome the deadband, the
booster will exhaust.
A highcapacity regulator is required to provide sufficient capacity to supply both components. A highcapacity filter
should be installed in the supply line to the regulator.
