Installation Tip

¾"	23
1"	29
1½"	43
2"	53
3"	80
4"	104

Calculate the total volume of water that will be "in suspension" in the pipework, and ensure that the sump is big enough to avoid overfilling in the event of a power interruption. This volume (in m3) can easily be calculated by using the following simple equation:-

Volume = 3.14 x R2 x L

Where R is half of the internal diameter of the pipe (in metres)

and L is the total length of pipe (in metres).

The table on the right can be used as a guideline for imperial pipe sizes. Please note that different grade pipes will have different wall thickness – the thicker the wall the smaller the internal diameter (ID), as the external diameter is always constant.
