A573 grade 58 plates API standard 650 vertical welded storage tanks
Density of API standard 650 vertical welded storage tanks Liquid StoredThe 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 TemperatureThe 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."
For API 650 tanks Projection from outside of tank shell to extreme face of flange - plus or minus 5 mm. API standard 650 vertical welded storage tanks Elevation or radial location - plus or minus 6 mm. API 650 tanks Flange tilt in any plane, measured on the diameter across the gasket surface - plus or minus degree but not exceeding 5 mm. Flange bolt hole orientation - plus or minus 2 mm.
In order to ensure the safety of the vertical storage tank, API standard 650 vertical welded storage tanks, the supplier should inspect the tank carefully before delivery. The failure of the tank body is mainly due to the weld and crack of the product. The inspection of API standard 650 vertical welded storage tanks, vertical storage tank weld and microcrack is mainly to inspect the appearance forming quality of weld. The inspection contents include weld leg height, undercut, welding deformation, weld bead, arc pit, weld straightness, etc., as well as the internal quality of weld, such as slag inclusion, porosity, incomplete penetration, crack, incomplete fusion, etc.
