• * : Assume equivalent piping length of Y branch to be 0.5m, that of header to be 1m, calculation purpose.
• ** : To apply Conditional Application
WARNING
If overall equivalent pipe length is more than 90m from ODU to the longest IDU,
The diameter of the main pipe (Gas and Liquid pipes) must be increased as follow.
