A flare liquid seal drum
Modelled from the drum we delivered: the gusseted flange, the baffle inside and the seal pipe are where they are in our photographs.

A ring of radial gussets braces the flange to the shell. The hard part is keeping the face flat after they are welded behind it, because it still has to seal against a header made by somebody else.
Used here for: A large flange that stays flat
03 / 06
A dished baffle set convex to the inlet with an annular gap to the wall, and a seal pipe brought in through the shell onto a boss at its centre.
04 / 06
Set out to drawing, opened through the shell, reinforced and finished with raised-face flanges by qualified welders.
05 / 06
Rolled shell and conical outlet, fabricated and tested as a code pressure part with the documentation that goes with it.
Used here for: The pressure envelope
A Level 2 coating inspector on the floor full time; weather checked and a test before every batch of paint.
06 / 06
Flange, gussets, baffle, seal pipe, nozzles and shell: the whole drum laid open.
The drum as it left our works: flange face, gusset ring and side nozzles, coated and inspected.
Looking in through the flange: the dished baffle and the seal pipe turning onto it. These are the internals the 3D model above takes apart.
We fabricate to your drawings and prove the fit in our own bay before anything ships. Open any line for the detail.
