API Std 650 insulated tanks bottom plates welded to the shell

Our after sales department is an very important part of our department structures. After the customer receive steel materials, our after sales department will follow up regularly and solve problems for them in time if they have the needs. We romise to return the goods for free for its lifetime if it is quality of the steel material itself.

The factors that affect the "small breathing" loss of API Std 650 insulated tanks are: 1. Generally, the larger the storage tank is, the larger the total open area is, the larger the evaporation area is, and the greater the "small breathing" loss is; conversely, the smaller the storage tank is, the smaller the evaporation area is and the smaller the "small breathing" loss is. 2. It is related to the atmosphere. The lower the atmospheric pressure is, the greater the "small breathing" loss is; otherwise, the loss is reduced.

Structural shapes of 9% and 5% nickel steel may be furnished to the chemical and physical requirements of ASTM A353, A553, or A645. Physical tests shall be in accordance with the requirements of ASTM A6.
API Std 650 insulated tanks used Piping, Tubing, and Forgings
Material used for piping, tubing, and forgings shall be compatible in welding strength, and thermal expansion coefficient with the tank shell material. In addition to the specific requirements of this appendix, all piping within the limitations of 1.3.2 shall fulfill the minimum requirements of ASME B31.3.
