Notes on possible personal injury
WARNING
!
Risk of personal injury due to incorrect operation, use or installation as a result of
information on the safety temperature limiter being illegible.
Over time, markings, labels and nameplates on the device may become covered with
dirt or become illegible in some other way. As a result, hazards may go unnoticed and
the necessary instructions not followed. There is a risk of personal injury.
Î
Keep all relevant markings and inscriptions on the safety temperature limiter in a
constantly legible state.
Î
Immediately renew damaged, missing or incorrect nameplates or labels.
Risk of burn injuries due to hot or cold components and pipelines.
Depending on the process medium, valve components and pipelines may get very hot
or cold and cause burn injuries.
Î
Allow components and pipelines to cool down or warm up to the ambient tempera-
ture.
Î
Wear protective clothing and safety gloves.
Damage to health relating to the REACH regulation.
If a SAMSON device contains a substance listed as a substance of very high concern
on the candidate list of the REACH regulation, this is indicated on the SAMSON deliv-
ery note.

Risk of fire or explosion as a result of hydrocarbons escaping due to leakage in the
Type 2430-3 Control Thermostat or Type 2403 Safety Temperature Monitor.
A small quantity of a flammable mixture of hydrocarbons is used as the operating me-
dium in the Type 2430-3 Control Thermostat (vapor pressure principle) and the
Type 2403 Safety Temperature Monitor (STM).
Î
Mount the safety temperature monitor in such a way that in the event any operating
medium escapes as a result of leakage, it cannot come into contact with hot surfac-
es, sparks, open flames or other ignition sources.
