11 guides
- 01 Manufacturing guideWhat a Chemical Tank Drawing Handoff NeedsThe drawing, interface, service and approval inputs needed before chemical tank fabrication starts.
- 02 Manufacturing guideHydrostatic testing: separating test capability from tank working pressure.A practical guide to separating tank-body hydrostatic test capability from customer-defined working pressure and design inputs.
- 03 Manufacturing guideNozzle Orientation Information That Prevents ReworkPractical nozzle, manway and interface information for a buildable chemical tank package.
- 04 Manufacturing guideHow to Specify Drainability, Low Points and Cleanout Access in a Fabricated TankHow to define drained state, bottom geometry, outlet position, internal pockets, cleanout access and verification before a chemical tank is fabricated.
- 05 Manufacturing guideWhat an Agitator Nozzle and Support Drawing Must Define Before FabricationA fabrication-focused guide to defining agitator nozzle geometry, datums, loads, support relationships, internal clearances, access, assembly states and inspection before tank manufacture.
- 06 Manufacturing guideDissimilar-Metal Attachments on Stainless Tanks: What Must Be Specified Before FabricationDefine exact materials, service exposure, contact and electrolyte paths, isolation intent, joint details, evidence, authority, and change controls before releasing a dissimilar-metal tank attachment.
- 07 Manufacturing guideWhen Should Tank Roundness, Verticality, and Levelness Be Measured?Decide when tank roundness, verticality, and named-feature geometric levelness should be measured by recording physical state, reference, method, purpose, and authority; geometric levelness is not liquid fill level.
- 08 Manufacturing guideInternal Coil Interface Release: Penetrations, Supports, Clearances, Drainability, and Test BoundariesRelease an internal-coil mechanical interface by joining current supplier data to tank datums, penetrations, supplied support actions, clearances, drainability inputs, test boundaries, evidence, and change control without inventing design values.
- 09 Manufacturing guideInternals Release Before Tank Closure: Baffles, Coils, Dip Tubes, and Hold-Point EvidenceDefine a tank-internals closure hold point by tying baffle, coil, dip-tube, and other Internal IDs to location, orientation, clearance, removability, connection/support state, evidence, open items, and changes.
- 10 Manufacturing guideBefore Cutting and Rolling a Tank Shell: What Shell-Course, Seam, and Attachment Decisions Must Be FrozenBuild a project-specific release baseline for tank shell courses before cutting or rolling by freezing plate identity, seams, openings, attachment zones, forming ownership, revisions, evidence, holds, and change triggers.
- 11 Manufacturing guideTank Support and Foundation Interfaces: What Fabrication Needs From the Site DesignDefine the loads, datums, base and anchorage geometry, installation states, evidence, and responsibilities site design must supply before tank-support fabrication.
