Single vessel automat
Length of expansion line
DN of the expansion line,
in relation to the vessel connection
> 5 m
Two sizes bigger as vessel connection
> 15 m or > 8 m with 3 pipe bends
Three sizes bigger as vessel connection
> 22 m or > 15m
To be determined from actual values
> 30 m
Avoid at all times!
Advice:
install expansion lines as short as possible and as flow-eff icient as possible
Install combinations of multiple vessels with the shortest possible distance between each system connection of the vessels
(minimum required spaces for service and repair). Construct a collecting main as follows:
Multiple vessels automat
No. of main and auxilliary vessels
DN of the expansion line,
in relation to the vessel connection
up to 3
4 to 6
Four sizes bigger as single vessel connection
Six sizes bigger as single vessel connection
The vessels should preferably be positioned symmetrically or the nominal diameter of the connection lines should be
increased (Example order: M-K > MK-U < M-K; M-K > MK-U - MK-U < M-K Ideal: positioning in polygon). For the return line the
same guidelines apply as for expansion lines.
►
Systems with flow temperatures > 100 °C may require a minimum pressure limiter.
6.3 Gas compartment connection
Installations of one or more main vessels with one or more auxiliary vessels with combined pressure control and/or floor
standing compressors** at the automat require a gas compartment connection to be constructed on-site. For this purpose
plug the pressure hose connection (lock in place)** into the connection-adapters mounted on the equipment. Plugging
the connecting plug (pressure hose connection) into the adapter (quick-release coupling) opens the gas compartment.
Disconnecting automatically closes the gas compartment (connecting examples: see equipment). Arrange hoses in such a
way, that constrictions are avoided at all times
Caution:
compressed air jet. Note that if pressure hoses are connected or disconnected at one side this can lead to
air being discharged (pressure loss). At the same time the discharge pressure in standard supply situations is up to
2 bar or it corresponds to the system pressure in the case of separately ordered optional extras. Do not point the compressed
air jet at anybody! When discharging compressed air, unrestrained hoses make uncontrolled whipping movements and can
lead to injuries.
