Tubesheet Assembly
1. Lay out the panels of the tube sheet with flange-side up
on a level area using stand-offs to avoid ground contact
and to keep the tube sheet surface free from blemishes.
2. Apply sealant to the connecting flanges of the tube
sheet prior to aligning bolt holes. Apply sealant around
the inside perimeter within 1/4-in of all flange edges and
around all bolt holes as shown.
3. Bolt the connecting flanges together using the provided
5/8-in hardware. Keep the last three vertical bolt holes at
the perimeter free of hardware as shown.
4. Attach the circular bottom connecting plate to tie in all
pieces of the tube sheet as shown. Use the supplied
2½-in length hardware for bolting through the multiple
material thicknesses associated with the bottom
connecting plate.

Provisional Anchor Bolt Recommendations
1. Consider Hilti HIT-HY 200 Anchor System or equivalent.
Quantity of anchor bolts should match the number of holes
provided in the base plates.
2. Anchor diameter is typically 1/8 to 1/2-in less than
baseplate hole diameter.
3. Corrosive environment or outdoor installation may require
stainless steel anchors.
Typical Foundation Anchor
Anchor should project a
minimum of 1 3/4-in and
account for nut, washer,
base plate and shims/
grout.
