General Requirements
The piping, fittings, receiver tank, etc. must be certified safe for at
P
least the maximum working pressure of the unit. Use hard welded or
threaded steel or copper pipes, cast iron fittings and hoses that are
certified safe for the units discharge pressure and temperature. Use
pipe thread sealant on all threads, and tighten joints thoroughly to
prevent air leaks. DO NOT USE PVC PLASTIC.

for use with compressed air. Regardless of its indicated pressure
rating, plastic pipe can burst from air pressure. Use only metal pipe
for air distribution.

CONDENSATE DISCHARGE PIPING

If installing a condensate discharge line, the piping must be at least
one size larger than the connection, as short and direct as possible,
secured tightly and routed to a suitable drain point. Condensate must
be disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal laws and
regulations.
NOTE: All compressed air systems generate condensate that
accumulates in any drain point (e.g., tank, filter, aftercoolers, dryers).
This condensate contains oil and/or substances which may be
regulated and must be disposed of in accordance with local, state,
and federal laws and regulations.
