Piping Requirements
Every system is different, built to suit the
•
customer.
Typical system will include piping layout/ system
•
design drawings provided by either approved
project engineering staff or qualified Walinga
personnel.
All piping installed must be properly supported.
•
When installing the support points, ensure
•
that there is enough strength to support a full
pipe line, should the system become
plugged.
One support point every 10' is
•
recommended.
Ensure that the main lines are as straight as
•
possible to maintain maximum conveying rate.
Space the inlets and the inlet piping, at a maximum of 40' apart. Or in accordance with
•
piping layout drawing provided.
When installing the inlet lines, ensure that the Y elbows enter from either the side or
•
the top of the main pipe line. The Y must also follow the flow of the product and air
stream.
All the piping should be within 400' of the main
•
Central Vac system to maintain product air
speed and avoid plugging
All compression couplers must be fully tightened,
•
ensuring a proper seal.
Grounding strip must be properly installed,
•
making contact to both pipes, to ensure total
protection from static electricity build up.
