n 13.5.9 Inserting the Pipe Insert the end of a flexible pipe section inside the pipe coupling until it bottoms out. Inspect the entire assembly, prior to switching on the machine. Make sure the pipe is completely vertical. Finish the coupling process as described in 13.6.5 and 13.6.6 IMPORTANT. For direct burial (non -Access Pipe) coax applications, loosely pre -install entry boot on pipe, studs facing downward, prior to inserting pipe on coupling. Replace orange dust cap after couplings. 13.7 Installing Pipe Sections - Direct Burial (non -Access Pipe) Once the pipe has been measured and the couplings have been installed, the pipe may be installed. This section discusses the installation in a direct burial application. Refer to section 13.8 for installation of the piping using Access Pipe. 13.7.1 Insert Piping Through Sump Wall Take the pipe section to the trench and insert into the containment sump through the flexible entry boot. Make sure the band clamp of the entry boot has been removed loosened to the to or sufficiently permit pipe pass through the rubber boot. Tighten band ;.; '` , clamps of the entry boots after the installation process has been completed. For junction sump applications, repeat procedure for adjoining pipe sections. IMPORTANT: For direct burial (non -Access Pipe) coax applications, be sure to insert coupled pipe through opening in the side of the sump. Align studs of the flexible entry boot with stud holes in sump and push into place. Fasten the entry boot according to the installation instructions included with the boot. 13.7.2 Pipe Connection After the flexible pipe(s) have been inserted, attach pipe to fittings using the methods described in section 14. Inspect the piping in the trench to make sure it is positioned properly in the trench between the containment sumps and there is sufficient pipe weaving back and forth to allow for pipe expansion and contraction. 13.8 Installing Pipe Sections -Access Pipe Once the pipe has been properly measured, the couplings have been installed and dust covers placed back on the couplings, the pipe is ready to be installed into the duct. Refer to section 10 and Access Pipe installation instructions for -- details involving the proper installation of the duct conduit. 13.8.1 Fishing Pipe Through Access Pipe Remove Access Pipe conduit from entry boots. Attach the appropriate OPW-FCS bullnose to one coupling. Fish rope through the Access Pipe conduit and attach to bullnose. Pull or push flexible piping through Access Pipe conduit. 14 n FhaxWORKS ®V OPW FUELING CONTAINMENT EVSTEM9 1pe installation instructions. 13.8.2 Insert Pipe into Sump Align the Access Pipe conduit/ flexible piping with the Access Pipe entry boot. Push piping through entry boot and attach coupling to the fitting using the methods described in section 14. 13.8.3 Insert Access Pipe into Boot Align the Access Pipe with entry boot and push into place until duct bottoms out. Tighten band clamps to 30 in. Lbs. 13.8.4 Installation of Duct with Coax Fittings Step 1. Drill entry boot holes using the appropriate size hole saw. Step 2. Measure and cut the length of Duct to be installed. Sump wall to sump wall plus four inches (4"). It is recommended to snake the pipe from side to side within the trench to compensate for expansion and contraction characteristics of the pipe. Step 3. Insert the outside portion of the Duct boot into the sump wall. Loosely install the Duct into the boot and measure from the face to face of the pre-installed Coax tee or elbow fittings within each sump. Cut the Flex flexible piping to this measurement with an OPW-FCS pipe cutter. DO NOT COUPLE THE PIPE. Step 4. Using a Barbed Bull Nose fitting (FBN-3150 or FBN-3200), insert the Flex piping through the section of Duct. It is recommended to start with the longest runs so if a mistake is made, the section can be used on a shorter section of the site. Step S. In the following order, prepare the pipe to be coupled. 1. Place the outside portion of the Access Pipe boot over the Duct, studs pointing towards the end of the pipe. 2. Slip the black boot stiffener over the Flex and into the end of th a Access pipe. 3. Slide the inside "nose" portion of the Access Pipe boot onto the end of the Flex pipe. Be sure the smaller opening --- - of the boot is towards the pipe end. Step 6. Coupling the Pipe. With the pipe still inside the Access Pipe, raise the entire assembly over the OPW-FCS coupling machine with a Coax coupling in position on the machine. Be sure the Flex pipe is vertical at the end and enters the Coax Coupling squarely then couple the pipe. Repeat steps 5 and 6 on the other end of the pipe section. Step 7. Insert the pipe assembly and boot nose through the pre -drilled hole in sump. The nose of the boot is flexible
