General
Transair® stainless steel pipe is supplied “ready for use”. No particular preparation (cutting, deburring, chamfering, etc.) is
required. Thanks to the rigidity of Transair® stainless steel pipe, temperature-related expansion / contraction phenomena
are reduced to a minimum. The Transair® network retains its straightness, and hence its performance, over time (reduction
of pressure drop caused by surface friction). Transair® stainless steel pipe is calibrated and fits perfectly onto all Transair®
components. Each connection is automatically secured and sealing is, thus, optimized. The use of Transair® stainless steel
pipe minimises corrosion.
When maintaining or modifying a Transair® system, the relevant section should be purged prior to the commencement of any work. Installers should only use Transair® components and accessories. The technical properties of the Transair® components must be respected.
Pressurizing the System
Once the Transair® installation has been installed and
prior to pressurizing, the installer should complete
all tests, inspections and compliance checks as
stated in any contract and according to sound
engineering practice and current local regulations.
Transair® Pipe and Hoses
Transair® pipe should be protected from mechanical impact, particularly if exposed to potential collision with fork-lift trucks or
when sited in an environment with moving overhead loads. Similarly, rotation of the pipe and pipe supports should be avoided.
Transair® pipe must not be welded.
Component assembly
Transair® components are provided with assembly
instructions for their correct use - simply follow the
methods and recommendations stated in this document or separate data sheets.
Pipe-to-pipe and stud connectors in Ø22 and Ø28 can be immediately connected to Transair® stainless steel -pipe – simply push the pipe into the connector up to the connection mark. The gripping ring of each fitting is then automatically secured and the connection is safe.
Pipe-to-pipe and stud connectors in Ø42 and Ø60 can be quickly connected to Transair® stainless steel pipe by means of a double clamp ring. This secures the connection between the nut and the pipe – tightening of the nuts secures the final assembly.
Pipe-to-pipe and stud connectors in Ø76 and Ø101 can be quickly connected to Transair® stainless steel pipe. Position the pipes to be connected within the Transair® cartridge and close/tighten the Transair® clamp.
