Notes:<br />

01 ● 1. Gasket material shall be specified by the purchaser. See 3.7.5.4.<br />

2. The gasketed face shall be machine finished to provide a minimum<br />

gasket-bearing width of 20 mm ( 3 /4 in.).<br />

3. See Table 3-3.<br />

4. See Table 3-4.<br />

5. The size of the weld shall equal the thickness of the thinner<br />

member joined.<br />

6. The shell nozzles shown in Table 3-6 may be substituted <strong>for</strong> manholes.<br />

7. When the shell nozzles shown in Figure 3-5 are used, the minimum<br />

centerline heights above the tank bottom given in Table 3-6<br />

are acceptable.<br />

8. For dimensions <strong>for</strong> D o , D R , L, and W, see Table 3-6, Columns 4,<br />

5, and 6.<br />
