API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks emergency overflow drains

The welded API 650 tank in various sizes and capacities for internal pressures approximating atmospheric pressure (internal pressures not exceeding the weight of the roof plates), but a higher internal pressure API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks is permitted when additional requirements are met.

The most popular standards for API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks are API Std 650, JIS B8501, BS2654, GB50341, etc. The formulas used in each standard are derived from the hoop stress calculation formula of membrane theory. Combined with the stress characteristics of API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks, plus the allowable stress, weld coefficient and additional wall thickness, the wall thickness calculation formula is complete. The allowable stress and weld coefficient are determined according to the material performance characteristics and construction technology level of each country. According to different API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks standards, the calculation results of tank wall thickness are sometimes quite different.

All API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks fillet welds shall consist of a minimum of two passes. The ends of the fillet welds shall be 2 in. from the rat hole, and these welds shall be deposited by starting 2 in. from the rat hole and welding away from the rat hole. An acceptable alternative to stopping fillet welds 2 in. short of the rat hole would be to weld continuously through the rat hole from one side of the stiffener to the opposite side. All craters in fillet welds shall be repaired by back welding.

In line with the service concept of "honesty first, customer first" and the service tenet of "all for customer satisfaction", the company adopts the acceptance and response mode of combining manual and automatic, and accepts the diversified service demands of customer business consultation, complaint declaration, business acceptance, etc. through telephone, fax, e-mail, visit, letter, etc.

In the process of API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks steel transportation, enterprises often use railway transportation, highway transportation, water transportation and other ways to transport. According to the cargo owner's requirements on the timeliness of the goods and the different transportation routes, our company will choose API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks different modes of transportation. According to the specific needs of customers, or specify the mode of transportation.
