API 650 anchored liquid-storage tanks flanges

Compared with the external floating roof API 650 anchored liquid-storage tanks, the internal floating roof API 650 anchored liquid-storage tanks has the advantages of protecting the floating roof from wind and rain and ensuring the quality of liquid storage under the floating roof. At the same time, because the inner floating plate is in the tank, there is no rain and snow load, so the central drainage pipe and escalator and other accessories on the floating plate can be omitted. In addition, under the same sealing conditions, the internal floating roof tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the External floating roof tank.
