The suction line tables comprise theoretically calculated values where
pipe dimensions and oil fl ow are adapted to prevent turbulent fl ows from
occurring. Turbulent fl ows can result in pressure losses and noise in
the pipework. A typical pipe system usually comprises pipe runs with 4
bends, a non-return valve, a shut-off valve and a pre-fi lter.
The total resistance of these items is such that it can be disregarded. In
the tables no run longer than 100 m is listed, as experience shows this
not to be required.
The tables apply to standard heating oil of normal grade merchantable
according to existing norms. When starting operations with an empty pipe
system, the pump should not be run without oil for more than 5 min. (This
presupposes that the pump is lubricated with oil when running.)
The tables give the total suction line length in meters with a nozzle capacity
of 2.5 kg/h. Max. permissible pressure on the suction and pressure lines
is 2.0 bar.
