API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks annular plates

BBN excels in the design, fabrication and erection of API-650 tanks. API (American Petroleum Institute) has created a set of standards for above ground API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks oil storage, but these tanks are also commonly used for gasoline, chemical and water storage. API-650 storage tank solutions range in size from an 8’ -0” diameter shop fabricated tank up to and beyond 100’ -0” diameter field erected storage tank applications.

Density of API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks Liquid Stored
The density of the liquid stored shall be its maximum density within the range of design temperatures, but no less than 29.3 lbf/ft3 for methane, 34.21 lbf/ft3 for ethane, and 35.5 lbf/ft3 for ethylene.
Design Metal Temperature
The design metal temperature of each component exposed to the liquid or vapor being stored shall be the lower of the temperatures specified as follows: The design metal temperature of the components of the API 620 single-wall tank or the inner tank of a double-wall tank shall be the minimum temperature to which the tank contents shall be refrigerated, including the effect of subcolony at reduced pressure."

API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel 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.

Integrity, cooperation and innovation, positive and competitive, healthy and abundant are the company's core values. The company API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks always adhere to the "people-oriented", pay attention to improve the production skills and cultural quality of employees, by cultivating employees to carry forward excellent cultural traditions, set up the correct values, ethics and codes of conduct to improve employees' loyalty and work enthusiasm.
