Pipe cutter
• Use pipe cutting shears or wheel type plastic tube cutter
• Do not use a saw
• Remove all dust and shavings created when cutting the pipe
• Vacuum piping before connecting to VESDA detector
Bends and clips
Wide radius bends are recommended, as their airflow restriction is
almost negligible
For some regions, only the 90° bends are available based on pipes &
fittings approval
In most cases, 45° bends are acceptable
