Pressure gauges

39
Q

The spacing of pipe supports should be placed close enough together to blank any appreciable blank

A

Prevent and sag

40
Q

It is generally better to select a slightly oversized pipe this provides a certain margin of safety and the system can then accommodate blank blank without significant alterations

A

Hoses should not be any longer than necessary

43
Q

A good planned maintenance program requires?
