be achieved by hand drawing the tube or by use of the appropriate bend fittings. Pipework
should only be reduced to 15 mm copper if necessary when entering any terminal fittings
of this size. By this method the maximum performance of the pump will be maintained. All
pipework should be securely clipped.
