4. Illustration C depicts roll style 2 installation. For strap or

banding requirements for roll style 1 configuration, refer
to typical HS-2 banding placement.

5. Banding on vessels smaller than 3 m in diameter may be

installed completely around the vessel (see Illustration D).

6. For vessels larger than 3 m in diameter, circumferential

banding should not be used. Banding on larger vessels will
stretch creating possible air gaps and reduction of heat
transfer rates. Segment the banding and attach using one
of the following methods:
A. Welded stud
B. Anchor plate

Refer to Illustration E for permanent segmental banding.

7. Installations where additional heat is required on the coni-

cal portion of the vessel may be traced with tubing in the
form of hairpin loops. Secure tubing with welded studs or
anchor plates as outlined in Step 6. Use heat transfer com-
pound on tracers (see Illustration F).
