Piping Requirements

Every system is different, built to suit the 

customer.

Typical system will include piping layout/ system

design drawings provided by either approved

project engineering staff or qualified Walinga

personnel. 

All piping installed must be properly supported. 

When installing the support points, ensure

that there is enough strength to support a full

pipe line, should the system become

plugged.

One support point every 10' is

recommended. 

Ensure that the main lines are as straight as

possible to maintain maximum conveying rate. 

Space the inlets and the inlet piping, at a maximum of 40' apart. Or in accordance with 

piping layout drawing provided. 

When installing the inlet lines, ensure that the Y elbows enter from either the side or 

the top of the main pipe line. The Y must also follow the flow of the product and air 

stream. 

All the piping should be within 400' of the main

Central Vac system to maintain product air

speed and avoid plugging 

All compression couplers must be fully tightened,

ensuring a proper seal.

Grounding strip must be properly installed,

making contact to both pipes, to ensure total

protection from static electricity build up.
