The combination vessel connector has a circumferential
marking [M]. This circumferential marking should form an
intersection with the interior wall of the container and not
protrude any deeper into the container.
For easier assembly, it is useful to make a second marking
at a distance equivalent to the wall thickness [s] from the
existing exterior marking onto the combination vessel
connector in the direction of the clamp.
Insert the combination vessel connector far enough into
the container and align it until this marking matches the
outer Ø at its outermost position, point [X].
Welding the combination vessel connector to the container.
Weld distortion must be avoided by choosing suitable
welding parameters.
Before welding, connect the forming gas.
Before welding, affix 3 to 4 tack weld-ons.
