Pipeline diameter
The engineer is responsible for choosing the right water
lines and their size, in accordance with good installation
practices and the applicable laws, keeping in mind that
under-sized pipelines lead to poor system operation.
To make the connections:
- position the water lines
- tighten the connections using the "wrench against
wrench" method
- check for any fluid loss
- apply a lining to the connections (use proper insulating
material)
The hydraulic lines and fittings must be thermally insulated.
Avoid partial insulation of the pipes.
Avoid over-tightening the pipes to avoid damage to the
insulation.

To ensure water tightness of the threaded connections,
use hemp and green paste; the use of teflon tape is
recommended if you have poured anti-freeze liquid in the
water circuit.
Carefully check that the insulation is tight, in order to
prevent the formation and dripping of condensate.
Note: Always provide an electrically controlled valve
on the machine or upstream that interrupts the water
flow when the setpoint is reached.
