Table 03: Sizing of copper discharge pipe (D2) for common temperature relief valve outlet sizes
NOTE: The table below is based on copper tube. Plastic pipes may be of different bore and resistance. Sizes and
maximum lengths of plastic should be calculated using data prepared for the type of pipe being used.
