Connecting lines
Installation
– continued –
The connecting lines have different lengths due to the different dimensions of the vessels or tanks. Use the table on
page 28 to ascertain the required lengths.
Hydraulic tubes in combination with hydraulic hoses or only hydraulic hoses can be used as connecting lines.
The specific lay-out of the connecting lines depends on the design of the tank car.
See drawings on page 4 and page 28
. For one possible arrangement weld a transverse pipe-run
V (sectional steel, e. g. L-type steel to EN 0056 -
with dimensions 00 x 50 x 6 mm) between the two frames W of the operating device E.
In this case you can provide a recess at the left side of the transverse support V for the installation of the
hydraulic lines without any kinks.
The requirements and specifications of the local welding authority must be observed.
2. The length and form of the hydraulic tubes have to be matched to the transverse pipe-run V. Install the hydraulic
tubes at the inside (the side facing the bottom valves) of the transverse pipe-run V. The transverse pipe-run V
can then also protect the tubes.
3. Use pipe clamps to fix the hydraulic tubes to the tansverse pipe-run
V.
4. To connect the lines to the longitudinal pipe-run use T-type screw joints .
5. For a flexible connection between the hydraulic tubes and the operating devices E use prefabricated hydraulic
hoses with a length of approx. 280 mm.
At the side for connecting the operating device E they are provided with a 90° bend and a union nut M6 x.5
and at the side for connecting the hydraulic tubes they have a stub M6 x.5 for connecting the hydraulic tubes.
6. Several connecting lines from the transverse pipe-run V to the bottom valves can be made by using the
hydraulic tubes , , , .
7. Use flexible hydraulic hoses with screwed end connections M6 x.5 as connecting lines , , to the
control unit.
8. If necessary use pipe clamps to connect the connecting lines. Recommended distance between pipe clamps:
approx. 500 mm. Due to the length of the line most connecting lines , will therefore require these clamps.
If only hydraulic hoses are used adapt the lengths accordingly and use suitable end connections.
