API 650 low-alloy steel tanks overturning moment

Under the same sealing effect, the internal API 650 low-alloy steel tanks floating roof API 650 tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the external floating roof API 650 tank. This is due to the shielding of the fixed roof and the gas phase layer between the fixed roof and the inner floating plate, which has more significant heat insulation effect than the double disc floating roof of the API 650 low-alloy steel tanks external floating roof tank.

Prefabrication requirements of large vertical API 650 low-alloy steel tanks accessories: the prefabrication shall be deepened as far as possible in strict accordance with the requirements of construction drawings and specifications, according to the principle of convenient installation and construction, as much as possible to reduce the installation workload, especially the workload of high-altitude operation. The prefabricated accessories shall be strictly inspected to ensure the quality and make marks. In addition, effective measures should be taken to prevent deformation, damage and corrosion during storage, transportation and stacking on site.

API 650 low-alloy steel tanks test procedure
The inner tank shall be opened to the atmosphere, and a sufficient amount of water shall be added to the inner tank to balance the upward pressure against the inner tank bottom produced by the pneumatic test of the outer tank; as an alternative, the pressure between the inner and outer tanks can be equalized. API Standard 620 Air pressure shall be applied to the space enclosed by the outer tank equal to at least the design gas pressure but not exceeding a pressure that would overstress either the inner or outer tank.
