2-155 shows the supports and distance between
pipes near Station 2200. Figure 2-156 notes the
supports and hardware installed near Station
50. Difficulties arose when the fiber glass pipe
joints and neoprene expansion joints collapsed
under the applied vacuum. Fibre glass pipe was
replaced with steel pipe, and new neoprene
expansion joints with a greater wall thickness
were installed. Figure 2-157 shows pipes entering
Station 2210. At the rear of Station 2210 is
shown Station 2200. The earthfill has been completed and is being covered with sand bags. The
sheet metal siding has been removed from Station 2210.

absolute or less. The Station consisted of
two 5HP vacuum pumps connected into the
pipelines through sediment separators and flexible hose connections. Salt water was pumped
from a well and used as a medium for cooling the
vacuum pumps. Valved stub-outs were included
in the piping for the possible connection of two

portable vacuum pumps.
