PROCEDURE
Align shell positioners (Tank Rotators)
Keep both the Shells on the shell positioners
Keep Root Gap as per Requirement
Lock Four Orientation ( 0 , 90, 180, 270 )
(Keep Offset as per the Circumference Difference.)
Check Total Length
If Pair Nozzles, check external Dimension
11
Procedure .
Check TSR / internal Dimensions
Check Surface Alignment
Remove Spider ( If It Is Used )
Complete the balance Set-up (Maintain Equal Offset)
Again Check all The Dimensions Like,
- Offset
- Root Gap
- Pair Nozzle / External
- TSR / Internal
- Total Length
- Take Surface / Axial Alignment
Clean The Seam.
