API standard 650 ambient temperature tanks testing requirements

We also specialize in internal and external floating roofs, cathodic protection, primary and secondary containment, and storage tank foundations. Our staff are skilled in producing API 650 petroleum storage tanks. If you need to replace or repair API standard 650 ambient temperature tanks API 650 petroleum storage tanks, please contact us in time. Every API 650 petroleum storage tank we make emphasizes quality and safety.

Large-scale vertical API standard 650 ambient temperature tanks mostly use internal tank bottom heating coils to heat the medium stored in the storage tanks. The heating coils are mostly smooth tube structures arranged in an annular circle along the bottom of the API standard 650 ambient temperature tanks. Commonly used heating methods include hot oil circulation heating method and hot water steam circulation heating method. The hot oil circulation heating method is to continuously extract part of the liquid medium from the storage tank, and then return it to the container to mix with the medium in the tank after heating, and the heat is quickly transferred through mechanical stirring.

Impact Test Requirements for Oil Storage Tanks Primary Components
All API standard 650 ambient temperature tanks primary components of 9% or 5% nickel steel shall be impact tested in accordance with Q.2.2.2 through Q.2.2.4. Impact testing is not required for primary components of austenitic stainless steel, nickel alloy, and aluminum materials. Welds in high-alloy (austenitic) stainless steel shall be impact tested if required by Q.6.3.
Impact testing of plates, including structural members made of plate, shall comply with the following:a)Impact test specimens shall be taken transverse to the direction of final plate rolling. b)Charpy V-notch specimens shall be cooled to a temperature of –320°F for A353, A553, and A645 steels for impact testing.
