API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks design

Welded steel API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks storage tanks that are designed, manufactured and installed on the ground are classified according to the API standard system. The three API standards API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks all adopt on-site production and installation of storage tanks.

The cleanliness of the API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks has a great influence on the safety of the tank and the quality of the oil stored.

These impurities will cause the oil to slowly oxidize and deteriorate. The impurities mixed into the oil will also block the filter and oil circuit, causing oil supply failure.

The tank shall be filled with water to the design liquid level unless height is limited as noted in API 620 standard Q.8.1. After the tank is filled with water and before the pneumatic pressure is applied, anchorage, if provided, shall be tightened against the hold-down brackets. All welds in the API standard 650 open top welded storage tanks shell, including the corner weld between the shell and the bottom, shall be visually checked for tightness.
