5.2 Connecting Lines / Pipes
• Remove all protective covers before installation.
• Make sure that the connection lines cause no stress on the machine‘s connection; if
necessary use flexible joints.
• Make sure that the line size of the connection lines over the entire length is at least as
large as the connections of the machine.
In case of long connection lines it is advisable to use larger line sizes in order to avoid a
loss of efficiency. Seek advice from your Busch representative.
5.2.1 Suction Connection
NOTICE
Ingress of foreign objects or liquids.
Risk of damage to the machine!
If the inlet gas contains dust or other foreign solid particles:
• Install a suitable filter (5 micron or less) upstream from the machine.
Connection size(s):
– G3/4
Depending on the specific order, other connection dimensions may apply.
5.2.2 Discharge Connection
CAUTION
The discharge gas contains small quantities of oil.
Risk to health!
If air is discharged into rooms where persons are present:
• Make sure that sufficient ventilation is provided.
Connection size(s):
– Without connection. The discharged gas is released to the ambient of the machine.
Depending on the specific order, other connection dimensions may apply.
• Make sure that the discharged gas will flow without obstruction. Do not shut off or
throttle the discharge line or use it as a pressurised air source.
Unless the aspirated air is discharged to the environment right at the machine:
• Make sure that the discharge line either slopes away from the machine or provide a
liquid separator or a siphon with a drain cock, so that no liquids can flow back into the
machine.
