In the case of moist compressed air, the
connecting pipes (CP) should be joined
to the top of the distribution line (DP).

In the case of dry compressed air, the
connecting pipes (CP) can be joined to
the distribution line (DP) in any order.
Joining of CP with d 16 or larger
The connection to the machine or device
at the end of the connecting pipe can be
in the form of a single or multiple system.
End connections should always be pro-
vided with a shutoff valve. Multiple sys-
tem see p. 10 (manifold).

For joining the
connecting pipe
to the distribution
pipe, it is recom-
mended to fit an
appropriate resist-
ance weld fitting at
the transition point.
This will speed up
and simplify the
installation.
