A283 grade C plates API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks

Inspection of API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks bottom: magnetic flux leakage scanning technology is used to detect the corrosion condition of API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks bottom plate (such as corrosion depth and area, crack length, etc.). When there is a defect in the bottom plate of the API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks, the magnetic field distribution will change and the sensor can detect it. The bottom of the oil tank should be free of foreign matters and dry during testing. Weld inspection of API 650 mechanically-anchored tanks bottom plate: when vacuum leak test method is used to detect the tightness of oil tank bottom plate, soap water shall be applied to the weld and vacuum box shall be covered for observation.

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 650 mechanically-anchored tanks shell, including the corner weld between the shell and the bottom, shall be visually checked for tightness.

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 650 mechanically-anchored 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.
