API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks roof accessories

Thickness as it Affects Preheat and Post-heat Requirements
Plate with thicknesses below 1/2 in. is reasonably notch tough. In most steels, when the API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks used plate thickness exceeds 3/4 in. – 1 in., notch toughness, particularly as welded, decreases sharply. The decrease in notch toughness can be minimized by the conventional post-heat treatment and, in many steels, by preheat treatment. The benefits of preheat treatment in steels 3/4 in. – 1 in. thick have been demonstrated; similar benefits could be expected in thicker steels, but sufficient experimental data are currently lacking.The API Std 650 standard published by the American Petroleum Institute (API) is designed to provide the petroleum industry with welded steel tanks for use in the API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks storage of petroleum products and other liquid products commonly handled and stored by the various branches of the petroleum industry.In Nov, 2018, our Mozambique customer purchased from BBN company 500 tons carbon steel Q235B steel structure for building 10 units of gas station. We have been cooperate more than 5 years for providing plate and pipes and API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks profile as beginning, and they are very satisfied with all the received Cargo. We extend in-house cutting, welding, grinding, bending and certification and testing of our products, on client demand. If you are interested in our steel structures or steel plate price, welcome to contact us.Generally, external environment corrosion should be considered before design and construction of API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks and so on storage tanks. The corrosion on the outer surface of storage tank is often worse than that on the inner surface. Especially in the chemical industry area, there are often acid fog, alkali or salt dust in the atmosphere. These impurities form an active corrosive medium with dew or steam and oxygen in the atmosphere. The corrosion of the external environment of the storage tank shortens the maintenance period of the storage tank, even causes the storage tank to be scrapped in advance, which affects the normal operation of the storage and transportation.The company conducts periodic and targeted training and guidance for after-sales service personnel. As the saying goes, "no one is perfect, no gold is red", to help after-sales service personnel improve service skills and correct service attitude. Carry out relevant technical training for after-sales service personnel, so that after-sales service practitioners have professional product knowledge.
