Valve<br />

Drip points along the run of the steam<br />

lines, and at the bottom of any risers,<br />

should incorporate large diameter<br />

collecting pockets. Equal tees are<br />

useful in sizes <strong>up</strong> through 6" and larger<br />

size pipes can have pockets 2 or 3<br />

sizes smaller than the main but not<br />

less than 6". The terminal points of<br />

the mains should have automatic air<br />

vents, and equal tees again provide<br />

convenient collecting pockets for both<br />

condensate and air when installed as<br />

shown.<br />

Condensate Return<br />

Expansion loops are often fitted in<br />

the vertical plane, with the loop either<br />

below or above the line. When below<br />

the line, condensate can collect in the<br />

bottom of the loop. Above the line, it<br />

will collect just in front of the loop, at<br />

the foot of the riser. Drainage points<br />

are necessary in each case, as<br />

shown.<br />
