20 x 10 Hot Product Manhole

  • 25 PSIG YIELD PRESSURE
  • MOUNT TO 20” PAF WELD COLLARS
  • HEAVY DUTY CLAMP RING

Hot Product Manholes are designed for use on tanks hauling elevated temperature materials and are rated with a 25 PSIG yield pressure to meet the requirements of 49CFR 173.247(g)(2), which states:

“…Closures must be designed and constructed to withstand, without exceeding the yield strength of the packaging, twice the static loading produced by the lading in any packaging orientation and at all operating temperatures.”

Hot Product Manholes are designed to retrofit existing PAF Manholes on elevated temperature tanks in order to bring them into compliance with the current closure requirements, as well as for new construction tanks.

The design features a 10” fill to provide tank access for filling or inspection and a heavy duty clamp ring which can be removed to provide access into the tank. Steel assemblies are black epoxy coated for corrosion resistance.
