Intended use
The SAMSON Type 3591 Globe Valve in combination with an actuator (e.g. Type 3271
Pneumatic Actuator) is designed to regulate the flow rate, pressure or temperature of liquids,
gases or vapors. The valve with its actuator is designed to operate under exactly defined
conditions (e.g. operating pressure, process medium, temperature). Therefore, operators must
ensure that the control valve is only used in operating conditions that meet the specifications
used for sizing the valve at the ordering stage. In case operators intend to use the control
valve in other applications or conditions than specified, contact SAMSON.
SAMSON does not assume any liability for damage resulting from the failure to use the de-
vice for its intended purpose or for damage caused by external forces or any other external
factors.
