FLOWTUBE HANDLING
Handle all parts carefully to prevent damage. Whenever possible, transport
the system to the installation site in the original shipping containers.
Teflon
®
-lined flowtubes are shipped with end covers that protect it from both
mechanical damage and normal unrestrained distortion. Remove the end
covers just before installation.
Flanged 6- through 36-inch flowtubes come with a lifting lug on each flange.
The lifting lugs make the flowtube easier to handle when it is transported and
lowered into place at the installation site.
Flanged ½- to 4-inch flowtubes do not have lugs. They must be supported
with a lifting sling on each side of the housing.
Figure 3-1 shows flowtubes correctly supported for handling and installation.
Notice the plywood end pieces are still in place to protect the flowtube liner
during transportation.
