API standard 650 insulated tanks drawings
API standard 650 insulated tanks Breathing valve: The function of the oil tank breathing valve is to adjust the oil and gas pressure in the tank. When the pressure in the tank is too high, part of the excess oil and gas will be discharged through the breathing valve to reduce the pressure in the tank; when the pressure in the tank is too low, through breathing The valve sucks in air from the outside of the tank to increase the pressure in the tank and keep it constant with the atmospheric pressure. The breathing valve is usually installed at the top of the oil tank.
The impact tests for API 620 welded storage tanks used pipe (including structural members made of pipe), bolting, and forgings, shall be in accordance with ASTM specifications ASTM A333 (seamless only) pipe, ASTM A36 Mod 1 plate, ASTM A131 Grades CS, D, and E steel plate, ASTM A633 Grade A CSA G40.21 Grades 38WT, 44WT and 50WT high-strength low-alloy structural steel plate, ASTM A350 carbon and low alloy steel forgings, and ASTM A320 Grade L7 bolts.
Before the start of erection, inspect each API 650 tank foundation to ensure that it is level and acceptable to receive Work. Remove temporary erection attachments welded to the interior or exterior of the API standard 650 insulated tanks shell or to the bottom by arc gouging, and grind weld area smooth.
