API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks typical joints
API 650 is the standard for welded tanks for oil storage. It specifies the API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks design, manufacturing, welding, inspection and installation requirements of oil tanks. API 650 is widely used in storage tanks with internal pressure less than or equal to 2.5 PSI.
The longer the service life of the API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks, the lower the reliability and the prone to failure. Doing a good job in the maintenance of the metal oil tank can ensure the normal use of the oil tank, reduce the wear of the API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks body and accessories, and extend the service life of the oil tank. The maintenance of metal oil tanks is mainly to do a good job in the anti-corrosion of the oil tank, the cleaning of the deposits in the API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks and the overhaul of its accessories Regularly inspect and maintain the accessories of the oil tank: valves, oil measuring holes, breathing valves, flame arresters, ladders, foam fire extinguishing generators, etc, and make records If any damage is found, repair them in time
Changes in Tank ShapeIf in any of the foregoing tests there is an excessive rise of the bottom of the tank around the boundary of contact with grade, or off its foundations, or if any of the specified conditions of test loading cause other appreciable changes in the shape of the tank, the design shall be reviewed and means shall be provided in the tank for holding the shape within permissible limits under all conditions of loading,API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks. Additional TestsThe tests prescribed in API 620 tank 7.18 are believed to be sufficient for most tanks constructed according to these rules; if, in the opinion of the designer, additional tests are needed to investigate the safety of a tank under certain other conditions of loading, as determined from the design computations, these tests shall be made on the tank involved in addition to the tests specified in this standard.
Our company has sales department, technology department, quality inspection department, after-sales department, logistics department. Each department has professional knowledge and high professional quality, put customers first, think about the interests of customers, actively communicate with customers and solve problems smoothly.
Steel transportation because of the special material of API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks steel, is a metal with "iron" as the main basic element, small volume and large weight, and easy to oxidize and rust when contacting with air and rain water, so there are many precautions in the transportation of steel. There are 11 proverbs for steel transportation: "evenly placed, moisture-proof and rust proof". Our company chooses the logistics aspect to be very rigorous, takes the customer's request as the standard, guarantees the steel product quality.
