Series 4960 / 4970 / 4980 / 5960 Gauge Hatch

Brand: Protectoseal Company
The Protectoseal Gauge Hatches provide ready access to storage tank’s interior for inspection, gauging and sampling. 

Gauge Hatches are intended for use where the fire protection afforded by a Protectoseal flame arrester is not considered necessary. 

The lockdown feature on the Series 4970 / 5960 makes them particularly suited for use on tanks with normal operating pressure under 3 psiG. 

Tightening the thumb screw holds the cover securely in place, thereby minimizing leakage and evaporation losses. 

The Series 4960 / 4980 Gauge Hatches with Free-Lifting Covers have nominal opening pressures (based on their weight), but they should not be considered as primary pressure relief devices. 

Vapors relieved are expelled to atmosphere.
Features
  • Sizes 4" (DN 100), 6" (DN 150) and 8" (DN 200)
  • Provide tank access for manual gauging, sampling and temperature readings
  • Free-lifting or lockdown models available
  • Thermometer hook, gauge marker and lock hole are provided
  • Hinged cover can be opened a full 75° to 80° 
  • Available in Aluminum, Stainless Steel and Carbon Steel
