7.1 Connecting the steam
Note!
The steam pipe must be cut off and must not be under pressure.
• The branch pipe’s must be located at the top of the main steam pipe to prevent condensation in
the steam.
• The branch pipe must have a descending gradient and must end at a height above the inlet
connecting branch (5). For measurements M, N and O, please refer to the dimension drawing.
• Mount a plug valve (a) and a dirt collector (c) in the brach pipe.

Condensate return
It is important that the brach pipe for condensed water on return to the main condensate pipe has a
descending gradient and is lower than the outlet connecting branch (6).
• Mount a dirt collector (b) in the return pipe.
• Mount a mechanical water discharger behind the dirt collector (c).
• Mount a plug valve (a).
• Mount pressure hoses between the branch pipes and the machine. Note that hoses are not
supplied.
Pipe insulation
All pipes must be insulated in order to reduce risk of burning. Insulation also reduces loss of heat
to the surroundings.
