Adjustment of nozzle settings and supports of sloped vessel
Adjustment of nozzle settings and supports of sloped vessel
(OP)
Hi,
I have a quick question.
As per our client standard, the following is mentioned:
"Horizontal vessels shall normally be arranged to a slope 1 in 200 towards the drain point. No adjustment to nozzle settings or supports is required to compensate for a slope of this magnitude."
It is normal practice to fabricate different saddle heights in order to accommodate vessel slope. And then nozzle is fabricated to maintain perpendicularity to true horizontal line. I don't understand my client mentions for no adjustment in nozzle or supports.
Your kind help is required

Perhaps they meant to say "No angular adjustment to nozzle settings or supports is required..."?

I'd not assume that, so I'd agree w/ XL83NL, ask the question.

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand
