[MW:10591] Flush Drain API 650

Dear all,

We have 2 API storage tanks,with dimensions & drain nozzle sizes as
follows,

Tank 1 - ID 6000 x Ht 9500 , Drain Nozzle NPS 4

Tank 2 - ID 3000 x Ht 3000 , Drain Nozzle NPS 2

Licensor Datasheet has asked to, "PROVIDE FLUSH DRAIN WITH BOTTOM OF
TANK AS PER API650".

However, API 650 gives details for nozzles NPS 8 & above.

Please guide me for above cases.

regards,
Mandar Kardekar
Mechanical-Stationary Engineer
