1. HV-3057 should have 4575mm of vertical piping above and downstream of HV-3055. 2. Locate PT-3052 tap as high as physically possible above the top of the Q-30 duct, and 180 degrees away from the Q-30 take-off point. Thank you!!!! Last edited by ship200 on 2008-1-17 19:02.]
1. HV-3057 should have 4575mm of vertical piping above and downstream of HV-3055. Downstream of HV-3055, there should be a vertical pipe 4575mm long above HV-3057. 2. LOCATE PT-3052 TAP AS HIGH AS PHYSICALLY ABOVE Q-30 DUCT TOP AND 180 FROM Q-30 TAKE-OFF. The pressure tap for PT-3052 should be as high as possible above the top of the Q-30 conduit, and 180 units away from the outlet of Q-30 ）
1. HV-3057 should have 4575mm of vertical piping above and downstream of HV-3055. Downstream of HV-3055, HV-3057 should have a vertical pipe that is 4575mm long.
I’ll also learn* this: 1. HV-3057 should have 4575mm of vertical piping above and downstream of HV-3055; downstream of HV-3055, there should be 4575mm of vertical pipe above HV-3057. 2. LOCATE PT-3052 TAP AS HIGH AS PHYSICALLY ABOVE Q-30 DUCT TOP AND 180 FROM Q-30 TAKE-OFF ? ? ? :L :L :L
This 180 should be a distance; since it’s a distance, it has units, and it is generally in mm
2. Locate the PT-3052 tap as high as physically possible above the top of the Q-30 duct, and at 180 degrees from the Q-30 outlet. The pressure tapping point for PT-3052 should be as high as possible above the top of the Q-30 duct, with an angle of 180 degrees relative to the Q-30 outlet
PT-3052 TAP and Q-30 TAKE-OFF are two different locations; how can they be 180 degrees apart? It can only be distance; since no unit is specified in the original text, no unit is included. The end user should know that (in engineering, the unit of length is generally mm). Judging from the posts Gnimany posted a few days ago, the original text has very poor grammar. For us Chinese people who have never left our country and have been learning standard English since childhood, when translating such English materials, it is sufficient to remain faithful to the original text; there is no need to go to great lengths to refine it.
