•Use pipe, tubing or reinforced hose to make dis- charge connection. Material selected must have sufficient strength for operating pressures.
•Discharge pipe should be sized so that flow velocity is below 8 feet per second.
•Use ONLY
•Use gate, ball, or butterfly valve for isolation. Valve should be full open during operation.
•Maintain proper pipe size throughout discharge system, using as few elbows and tees as possible to keep friction loss to a minimum.
•Install pressure gauge after reducer as shown to check operating pressure or
