Advanced Method
• Bendable tubing needs fewer fittings – no
threading required – system light and
compact – easy to install and service – no
internal pockets or obstructions to free flow.

• Sufficient separation required between redundant
p q
instrument sensing lines
• Recommended minimum separation between
redundant sensing lines should be at least 450 mm.
d d t i li h ld b t l t 450
• Instrument sensing lines should run in a covered
area/corridor
• Routing of instrument sensing lines should ensure that
the lines are not subjected to vibrations, abnormal
heat or stress
• Care should be taken to ensure that the tubing/piping
does not rest on or against any abrasive surface

as possible.
• Codal recommendations for instrument sensing g
lines, electrical transmission and pneumatic
transmission lines shall be adopted.
• Instrument sensing lines should avoid hot
environments or potential fire risk area
• Sensing lines should be located with sufficient

clearance to permit sagging.
Best Practices for Impulse Tubing
• Installation
ll
Impulse lines especially in case of ∆P/flow measurements should
be kept as close as possible.
• There should be provision for thermal expansion and contraction
• The number of joints should be kept to a minimum
• Sensing lines should be adequately supported along its entire
length
• Supports brackets clips or hangers shall not be fastened to the
Supports, brackets, clips or hangers shall not be fastened to the
instrument sensing lines
• Sensing lines should continuously slope downwards towards the
sensing instruments in case of liquid and upwards in case of gases
• Bends are always preferred over tube fittings
• Sharp bends should be avoided
