CSA G40.21 Gr 50WT plates API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks

Atmospheric API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks refer to storage tanks whose gas or vapor pressure is greater than -0.02MPa but less than 0.1MPa. Metal atmospheric storage tanks made of steel welded on the ground are often used to store petroleum, chemical and other similar liquids. Atmospheric API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks usually have a connecting pipe directly connected to the atmosphere, so that the operating pressure in the storage tank does not exceed the design pressure at all times.

Test plates shall be welded using the same qualified welding procedure and electrodes that are required for the tank shell plate joints. The API 620 steel storage tank test plates need not be welded as an extension of the tank shell joint but shall be welded in the required qualifying positions. One test weld shall be made on a set of plates from each specification and grade of API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks plate material, using a thickness that would qualify for all thicknesses in the shell. Each test welded of thickness t shall qualify for plate thicknesses from 2t down to t/2, but not less than 5/8 in. For plate thicknesses less than 5/8 in., a test weld shall be made for the thinnest shell plate to be welded; this test weld will qualify plate thicknesses from t up to 2t.

API 650 petroleum storage tank has the advantages of high safety: the API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanksinner floating plate floats on the liquid surface, so that the liquid phase has no evaporation space, which can reduce the evaporation loss by 85% to 90%. At the same time, the API 650 petroleum storage tank blocks the air and liquid storage through the floating disk, which reduces air pollution and reduces the degree of fire risk.

Our company doesn't need the cheapest quotation to choose international logistics company, but the price performance ratio will be high, the service will be good, and the transportation must be safe and punctual, which will not affect the time when the API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks goods arrive at the destination, and the logistics situation will be well communicated with customers in advance. Therefore, when we choose international logistics companies, we will have a look at their timeliness and service attitude in advance. It is only important to transport goods according to the requirements of customers for logistics.
