Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) | | Dutch term or phrase: droge lengte | 'Indien de totale gestrekte lengte van de delen van de rookgasafvoer (gespecificeerd in de lijst van onderdelen) groter is dan de maximale droge lengte (gespecificeerd in de technische gegevens) moet een condensafvoer worden toegepast.'
Is this 'dry-out length'? |

| | dry length / dry flue length | Explanation:
apparently the same concept can be used in English, however possibly there is another more common translation or is a descriptive translation a better option
anyway, the 'droge lengte' is the flue length before the point where condensation will take place
De rookgassen van de Nefit Economy VR-toestellen
zullen na een bepaalde lengte van de rookgasafvoer
gaan condenseren. Deze lengte wordt aangeduid als
droge lengte. De maximale droge lengte wordt bepaald
door het condensatiepunt van de rookgassen in de
afvoerleiding.

With reference to Section 3, should your flue be greater than the
"Dry" flue length stated, then a condensation drain should be
fitted.
