To determine the length of the syphon pipe, the following procedure must be used.
- Determine dimension "A": distance from center line of roll to inside face of roll.
- Calculate dimension "B": subtract dimension "X" (desired gap between inside face of roll to end of the angled syphon pipe) from dimension "A" (see step 1). B = A-X.
- Calculate dimension "Y": multiply dimension "B" by 1.130. Y = B x 1.130.
- Calculate syphon pipe length = "C" = Y-1.23.
Note: The end of the syphon pipe must clear inside face of roll to prevent damage to the roll, syphon piping and rotary joint. At time rotary joint is removed for service, check syphon pipe for any corrosion or clogging. Teflon tape or anti-corrosion compound on syphon elbow pipe threads. |
