only providing there is a minimum of two diameters of straight pipe between the elbow and pump
suction flange.
1. Elbow must be vertical when next to pump
Figure 22: Wrong
1. Eccentric reducer - with top horizontal
2. Must be at least 2D
Figure 23: Recommended
2.
The suction pipe should never be of smaller diameter than the pump suction. Use of suction pipe
one or two sizes larger than the pump suction, with a reducer at the pump suction flange, is de-
sirable.
3.
Reducers, if used, should be eccentric and preferably at the pump suction flange, sloping side
down.
1. Strainer
4. Eccentric reducer
2. Foot valve (if used)
5. Check valve
3. Long radius elbow
6. Gate valve
