Stainless steel oval manway E156
Stainless steel oval manway E156 is a very large model with a strong and solid construction, which opens to the inside of the tank. Furthermore, the more than half-meter-long hole provides easy access to the inside of the tank when the manway is opened for maintenance or inspection activities. A solid internal hinge holds the manway cover securely in the opened position. This type of manway is equipped with a gasket mounted around the flange (frame) and is installed in the side wall of stainless steel tanks.
The use of stainless steel oval manway E156
The large oval manway E156 is widely used in stainless steel and acid-resistant tanks used in, among others:
- food industry,
- brewery,
- dairy industry,
- beverage production,
- distilling,
- cosmetics industry,
- chemical and biotechnology industries.
In addition, the E156 type manway is successfully used in all types of applications requiring high standards of hygiene and/or increased corrosion resistance.
When planning to use an oval manhole in a specific working environment, it is important to recognize in detail the factors that affect the proper operation of the manhole before making a final choice. Among the most important are operating and test pressures and temperatures - operating and maximum. Also, do not forget about the physical and chemical characteristics of the working medium with which the parts of the manway will come into direct contact. It is essential to ensure the chemical resistance of the materials used in the construction of the manhole - both stainless steel and polymers from which gaskets are produced.
