The seal and bracket for the medium connection are not supplied; they are available on request from AWH.
For fastening to the container wall, the AWH container connectors can be used for welding to the container. The advantage is, via the funnel-shaped connection: Different container or pipe diameters can thus be covered. The container connector is designed to seal with the container wall via the special sealing contour with the O-ring. 5.2.3.1 Welding of the Container Connector The seal and bracket for the medium connection and the clamp process connection are not supplied. They are available on request from AWH.
If the internal diameter of the container (2 x R) is known, the container connector can be ordered with a corresponding radius at an additional cost, or it can be modified by the customer. For more information, please consult AWH.
