LOOP
Leave extra flex line around corners Loops or Curve at the ends of long flex line runs before corners
***NOTE: When wrapping flexible atomization line around a corner or coming to the end of a long manifold run, leave
approx. 4” to 6” extra per 10 foot of manifold line to account for possible line shrinkage. Failure to do so will result in
line or fitting leakage or damage not covered under warranty.
17. ORIENTATION OF ATOMIZATION NOZZLES
The atomization nozzles mounted in flexible and ROC atomization lines are 360° adjustable. After the atomization
lines have been installed it may be necessary to orientate the nozzles to create the desired fog pattern.
ROC Lines
Rotate the ROC (Rapid Orientation Collar) until the nozzle is pointing in the desired direction. The use of any
mechanical tool is generally not required if this procedure is undertaken at early start-up. However, if the system
has been operating for some time it may be necessary to use pliers or vice grips to rotate the collar. Avoid leverage
on the nozzle which can result in nozzle thread breakage.
