2.2. Conventions and Measurements
Measurements used for the Installation process.
D = Diameter of pipeline
d = diameter of riser
H = Height of riser on the pipeline
(Measured from crown of pipeline)
• For pipelines up to 12" (300mm) in diameter (D), the Air
Trap diameter (d) should be the same as the pipeline
diameter.
• For larger pipelines of up to 60" (1500mm) in diameter (D),
the Air trap diameter (d) should be 60% of the pipeline
diameter.
• For larger than 60" (1500mm) pipelines (D), the Air trap
diameter (d) should be 35% of the pipeline diameter.
• The Air trap length (H) should allow easy access to the air
valve from below and should be at least 6" (150mm).
