Water Piping - IBC SL Series Installation & Operating Manual

Section: Installation
Free flow of condensate from venting systems and the pressure vessel must be maintained
at all times. Trap and condensate drain piping must be accessible to allow regular inspection
and cleaning.
Condensate neutralizer NT-25: Drain materials subject to corrosion must be protected by
acid neutralization. Warning - Risk of injury. Tank fluid can be highly acidic. Do not use
hands to stir material. Refer to the neutralization instructions of the manufacturer. Access to
the discharge, before the drain, is necessary for proper maintenance in order to check the
effectiveness of the neutralizing agent. A simple pH test should be performed annually to
ensure neutralizing agent is still effective. If the pH falls below 6.5 the neutralizing material
should be replaced. The agent (limestone chips with a minimum calcium carbonate content
of 85%) can be purchased from a local supplier.
1" FPT inlet and outlet. Unions for ease of maintenance.
To drain. Confirm slope. Slope the condensate hose and drain piping toward the drain and
secure to prevent accidental disassembly.
