General safety instructions
1 General safety instructions
−All safety instructions and warnings given in these mounting and operating instructions,
particularly those concerning installation, start-up and maintenance, must be strictly ob-
served.
−The device must be mounted, started up or serviced by fully trained and qualied person-
nel only; the accepted industry codes and practices are to be observed. Make sure em-
ployees or third persons are not exposed to any danger.
−According to these mounting and operating instructions, trained personnel refers to indi-
viduals who are able to judge the work they are assigned to and recognize possible dan-
gers due to their specialized training, their knowledge and experience as well as their
knowledge of the applicable standards.
−The devices comply with the requirements of the European Pressure Equipment Directive
2014/68/EU. Devices with a CE marking have a declaration of conformity, which includes
information about the applied conformity assessment procedure.This declaration of conformi-
ty can be provided on request. This declaration of conformity can be provided on request.
−To ensure appropriate use, only use the device in applications where the operating pres-
sure and temperatures do not exceed the specications used for sizing the device at the
ordering stage.
−The manufacturer does not assume any responsibility for damage caused by external
forces or any other external factors.
−Any hazards that could be caused in the regulator by the process medium, operating
pressure or by moving parts are to be prevented by taking appropriate precautions.
−Proper transport, storage, installation, operation and maintenance are assumed.
Note:
Non-electric valve versions whose bodies are not lined with an insulating material
coating do not have their own potential ignition source according to the risk assess-
ment stipulated in EN13463-1:2009, section5.2, even in the rare incident of an
operating fault. Therefore, such valve versions do not fall within the scope of Directive
94/9/EC.
For connection to the equipotential bonding system, observe the requirements speci-
ed in section 6.3 of EN60079-14: 2011 (VDE0165 Part 1).

4 Design and principle of oper-
ation
See Fig.1 on page7.
The differential pressure regulators are de-
signed to maintain a constant pressure differ-
ence between the high pressure and low
pressure lines to an adjustable set point
(Type42-24) or a xed set point (Type42-
28).
The regulators basically consist of a valve
with seat (2) and plug (3) and a closing ac-
tuator (Type2424 or Type 2428) with an op-
erating diaphragm (13).
Valve and actuator are delivered separately
and must be assembled on site using a cou-
pling nut (11).
The medium ows through the valve between
the plug (3) and the seat (2) in the direction
indicated by the arrow. The position of the
valve plug determines the differential pres-
sure prevailing across the plant.
The Type2422 Valve is balanced. The forces
acting on the valve plug created by the up-
stream and downstream pressures are bal-
anced by a balancing bellows (5) or balanc-
ing diaphragm 1) (5.1).
The principle of operation of the regulator
balanced by a bellows or diaphragm only
differs concerning the pressure balancing.
Valves balanced by a diaphragm have a
balancing diaphragm (5.1) instead of the
balancing bellows (5). The downstream pres-
sure p2 acts on the bottom of the diaphragm
and the upstream pressure p1 on the top of
the diaphragm. As a result, the forces creat-
ed by the upstream and downstream pres-
sures acting on the plug are balanced out.

Design and principle of operation
The differential pressure across the plant is
transmitted over the high pressure and low
pressure lines to the operating diaphragm
(13) where it is converted into a positioning
force. This force moves the plug according to
the force of the set point springs (16).
The set point springs are mounted inside the
actuator for a xed set point (Type42-28).
These springs can be adjusted externally for
an adjustable set point (Type42-24).
Control lines (20) mounted on site transfer
the high pressure and low pressure in all ver-
sions.
Type2424 and Type2428 Actuators are
equipped with an overload protection (21). It
prevents a rise in differential pressure during
extreme operating conditions (e.g. vacuum
at the heat exchanger) by opening an inter-
nal excess pressure limiter. As a result, plants
and the regulator itself are protected against
excessively high differential pressures.

Installation
5 Installation
The Type42-24 and Type42-28 Regulators
are designed for installation in the high
pressure (ow) line of the plant.
The Type42-24 and Type42-28 Regulators
are designed for installation in the low pres-
sure (return ow) line of the plant.
ÎChoose a place of installation that allows
you to freely access the regulator even af-
ter the entire plant has been completed.
ÎInstall a strainer (e.g. SAMSON
Type2N) upstream of the regulator (see
section5.2).
ÎFlush the pipeline thoroughly before in-
stalling the regulator to ensure that any
sealing parts, weld spatter and other im-
purities carried along by the process me-
dium do not impair the proper function-
ing of the valve, above all the tight shut-
off.
ÎThe direction of ow must match the di-
rection indicated by the arrow on the
body.
NOTICE
Incorrectly installed regulator
The pressure regulator can be dam-
aged.
−Make sure the regulator is installed
free of stress.
−Do not attach supports (if required)
directly to the valve or actuator. At-
tach the supports near to the con-
necting anges.
−Observe permissible mounting po-
sition.
5.1 Mounting position
See Fig.1 on page7.
See Fig.2 for permissible mounting positions.
Standard mounting position · Install valve
without actuator in a horizontal pipeline with
the connection for the actuator facing down-
wards. Make sure the medium ows through
the valve in the direction indicated by the ar-
row.

Connect the actuator to the valve bottom sec-
tion using the coupling nut (11).

5.2 Strainer (lter)
Install the strainer upstream of the regulator.
The direction of ow must correspond to the
arrow on the body. The lter element must
be installed to hang downwards or sideways
for applications with steam. Remember to
leave enough space to remove the lter ele-
ment.
5.3 Shut-off valve
Install a hand-operated shut-off valve both
upstream of the strainer and at the outlet of
the return ow pipe (see Fig.4). This allows
the plant to be shut down for cleaning and
maintenance, and when the plant is not used
for longer periods of time.
5.4 Pressure gauge
Install a pressure gauge both upstream and
downstream of the regulator to monitor the
pressures prevailing in the plant. Install the
pressure gauge on the downstream side be-
hind the downstream pressure tapping point
(not between the tapping point and the
valve).
