Piping System Features Low Profile Crossovers - Dualoy 3000/LCX clamshell fittings are specifically designed <br />to allow the minimum distance between primary fittings to be maintained when <br />crossovers or offsets are needed. The center portion of the fitting is designed to fit the <br />next -size -larger single wall pipe size. When distance between primary fittings is critical, <br />simply cut off the corresponding legs of the clamshell fittings and connect them with single <br />wall pipe.

To <br />maintain the containment continuity through the sump, the system can be configured with <br />a termination ring on the branch of the tee or leg of an elbow. To do this, the tapered <br />portion of the clamshell fitting leg is cut off and a termination ring is bonded between the <br />primary fitting and the clamshell. A bushing or pipe nipple can be bonded into the primary <br />bell as needed. <br />Size Reductions - For large systems where larger diameter trunk lines are used, pipe <br />diameter reductions are easily made with the Dualoy 3000/LCX system at fittings. Single <br />piece bushings are used in the primary fitting to reduce the primary pipe size. <br />The containment pipe size is reduced by bonding a 2 -piece reducer ring between the <br />clamshell and the smaller pipe jacket. No cutting of clamshell fitting tapers is involved. <br />Size reduction can be done on any fitting leg or legs (as on a tee). <br />/\ <br />Smallersize Smaller size <br />downstream a o downstream <br />Oro <br />Largersize <br />upstream <br />Continuous Monitoring - The Dualoy 3000/LCX system has exceptional performance in <br />continuously monitored systems. Due to its small interstitial space, it is very reliable in <br />detecting leaks in systems monitored by pressure, vacuum or hydrostatic methods. False <br />alarms are eliminated by the lesser sensitivity to external conditions while detection of <br />actual leaks is increased. Consult Ameron Engineering for details and design of <br />monitoring methods. <br />2 <br />
