5.3.2 Installing the main steam pipe
The steam pipe between the steam outlet of the unit and the steam hose adapter (main steam pipe)
must be made with solid piping.
The following notes must be observed:
– The internal diameter of the steam outlet on the unit must be maintained over the entire length of
the main steam piping.
– The maximum length of the main steam pipe is 6 m.
Important!
Allowance must be made for a
pressure loss of 10 mm water column (approx. 100 Pa)
per meter length or per 90° bend.
– The
minimum bend radius
for solid pipes is
4-5 x internal diameter
. 90° bends should be avoided.
Wherever possible, pipe bends with large radius should be used (e.g. produced using a pipe bend
ing machine, or constructed from a pair of 45° bends). This reduces the performance loss due to
the formation of condensate, and in addition, the static pressure in the steam line.
– Use Cu pipe (
for operation with untreated drinking water only
) or stainless steel pipe (min. DIN
1.4301) exclusively.
– To minimize the condensate formation (= loss), the steam pipes must be insulated over the entire
length of the piping.
– Connection of the steam pipe to the steam outlet on the unit and the connection on the steam hose
adapter is effected by means of short lengths of steam hose secured with hose clamps.
– At spots where condensate could accumulate inside the pipe a condensate drain with siphon (min.
hose bend Ø200 mm) must be mounted.
