This door should not be installed in any tank not manufactured by GSI. Door Placement The commercial 2 ring door is installed in the bottom 2 rings. The door should normally be placed in line with the conveyor. The center of the door must be positioned directly below the vertical seam of the ring above it.
4. Installation Instructions Jamb Plate Assembly The jamb plates are bolted between the inner and outer door frame weldments (NCWT0266 (outer) and NCWT0265 (inner)). The left jamb plate (NCWT0276L) has a “L” cut out in the plate. See Figure 4B for “L” detailed orientation. The jamb plates bolt to the frame weldments using 7/16" x 2-1/2" bin bolts (S-9444) and special recessed nuts (S-8479). Bolt heads should be orientated to outside of bin.
4. Installation Instructions Inner Door Assembly The inner door hinges (NCWT0254) are bolted to the inner door frame weldment through tapped holes. (See detail B in Figure 4C.) Attach using 3/8" x 5/8" bolts (S-7185) and washer (S-248). The 2 ring door requires eight (8) total latch bar holders (WD-6234) assembled to the inner door frame weldment. Washers will be used to adjust the distance between the frame and the latch bar holder for the best fit of the inner doors.
