The straight flange height h1 is selected by diameter and thickness from GOST 6533-78, Table 2 (internal basic diameter). Sizes and thicknesses absent from that table, including 3 mm, require an agreed drawing or technical specification. h2 = D/4 for this elliptical profile.

Manufacturing elliptical heads 2800 mm

Cold forming and flanging of dished ends

Manufacturing 2800 mm includes geometry inspection and safe handling preparation. Avoid concentrated loads during storage and lifting of this large component.

Checks during manufacturing include:

  • initial blank thickness and condition;
  • Diameter D = 2800 mm;
  • elliptical dish depth h2 = 700 mm;
  • knuckle geometry and uniformity;
  • component ovality;
  • surface and edge condition.

Applications of the elliptical head 2800 mm

Applications for 2800 mm include gas-liquid separators and fire water tanks.

Each equipment type needs its own calculations. D = 2800 mm is a catalogue production size used where specified by the design.

Vessel equipment applications
Dished-end profile and manufacturing requirements

GOST 6533-78 — 2800 mm

For the catalogue elliptical profile of diameter 2800 mm, dish depth h2 = 700 mm, or 0,25 of D. Straight flange height h1 depends on thickness and the agreed configuration.

Germes-Ural manufactures heads 2800 mm with reference to GOST 6533-78, GOST 34347-2017, GOST 34233.2-2017, calculations and the technical specification. Non-standard parameters are recorded in the agreed drawing.

Ordering requirements for a head 2800 mm

Before ordering 2800 mm, state assembly opening restrictions, unloading conditions and lifting requirements.

  • thickness S and material grade;
  • required straight flange height h1;
  • equipment application, medium, pressure and temperature;
  • edge preparation and welded joint requirements;
  • assembly opening or site access restrictions;
  • preferred lifting and unloading method;
  • drawing or technical specification for a project-specific configuration.
