Section 7.0 Sizing Tables
7.1 CSST Tables (Continued)
Natural Gas
Caution: Locate proper sizing table based on total pressure drop allowed in piping system by local utility for each
installation.
Note
: Table 8 does include the effects of pressure drop across the line regulator. If regulator pressure drop exceeds 1 psig across 325-3 or
325-5A regulators,
DO NOT USE THIS TABLE
.
CONTACT PARKER AT 1-888-FASTMATE.
*Table includes losses for four 90 degree bends and two end fittings. To determine flow capacity for tubing runs with additional bends and/or
fittings, add the appropriate number of feet to the actual run length using the formula:
L = 1.3n
.
L
= number of feet to be added to actual run
length;
n
= number of additional bends and/or fittings
.
