Design standard of Typical construction details for test rings of floating head type exchangers. Use this standard for study purposes only.
General Notes:
- See exchanger drawing for material specification and any exception to this standard
- Missing dimensions to be determined by vendor, if not given on exchanger drawing
- Number of boltholes required should be half the number used in flange 2
- Use type 'A' if 'K' exceeds 35 mm, type 'B' if 'K' is 35 mm and smaller
- Tapped hole in center line for eyebolt 1/2" or M12 for units under 30" and 5/8" or M16 for units 30" and larger
- Type thread for studs and eyebolt to be the same as used for main flanges. Pitch of studs approximately 125 mm and number to be a multiple of 4. Nut and stud material: carbon steel commercial quality
- Stuffing box packing:
- 10 mm diameter for units 12" and smaller
- 13 mm diameter for units 14" to 24" including
- 16 mm diameter for units 26" and larger
- Flange material: carbon steel weldable commercial quality
