API Std 650 storage tank depth of fusion

Strictly control the welding groove forming of API Std 650 storage tank: in order to ensure the geometric dimension of assembly and good welding of welding seam, before hoisting and laying, the edge of all metal vertical storage tank plate shall be polished by grinder, and the flatness of plate shall be ensured according to the design requirements. Strictly control the size of API Std 650 storage tank weld assembly: measures must be taken to strictly control the assembly size of metal vertical tank bottom plate during assembly.

Large Low-Pressure Tanks Corrosion Allowance
In cases in which the rate of corrosion is closely predictable, additional metal thickness over and above that required for the initial operating conditions shall be provided and shall be at least equal to the expected corrosion loss during the desired life of the tank.
When corrosion effects are indeterminate before the tank is designed (although they are known to be inherent to some degree in the service for which the tank is to be used), and when corrosion is incidental, localized, or variable in rate and extent, the best judgement of the API Std 650 storage tank designer must be exercised in establishing reasonable maximum excess tank wall thicknesses. For all tanks that come under this classification, a minimum corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. shall be provided.

Our technical department plays important role in our professional communication with customers, especially those who have high technical requirements for steel materials and those who need complex further processing. Under such condition, our technician department can provide technical support in time, anylize customer design or make drawing according to customer needs rapidly, so that we can proceed smoothly. The profession of our team has won great praise of customers.

The outer FRP of API 650 oil tank will not produce electrolytic corrosion with groundwater and brine. The outer FRP will not corrode with gasoline, diesel oil and leaded gasoline API Std 650 storage tank. The leakage detector can monitor the whole process 24 hours to eliminate the potential pollution. The leakage detection system is convenient for the inspection and maintenance of API 650 oil tank, and protects the original ecological environment of soil and groundwater.
