At a single point—light equipment only

Air separators or inline pumps weighing less than 400 pounds may be supported on the both inlet and outlet using a floor support as shown in Figure 80. A single support may be used if the equipment weighs less than 150 pounds. A rigid connection with rods and cables supported from the building structure above is optional.

Step 1: Determine where to bolt the equipment

Accurately draw the bolt pattern of the base plate on the floor using one of the following methods:

  • Set the base plate and mark the holes.
  • Make a template.
  • Use measurements and construction drawings to lay out the bolt hole pattern.

Step 2: Install anchors

Install post-installed anchors as described in Anchors. Set the base plate with the angle support in place. Apply nuts to the anchor/bolt and torque.

Step 3: Attach piping

Attach piping to the angle with a U-bolt.
