CSA G40.21 grade 50WT plates API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks

Normal pressure API 650 storage tank: When the gas side pressure of API 650 storage tank is the same as atmospheric pressure or less than 13 atmospheres (gauge), API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks is called atmospheric storage tank. API 650 petroleum storage tanks low pressure storage tank: when the pressure is greater than 13 atmospheres (gauge) and less than 0.1MPa, it is called low pressure storage tank.

The company has passed the ISO9001: 2008 quality system certification, strictly implemented the ISO9001 quality management system. Besides, we have continuously improved the after-sales service network to make every effort to provide more convenient, accurate and faster services for all customers. We will supervise the production, control the quality in the factory, Inspect the cargo before shipment, Issue the test report to sales department. From the steel prodcution to steel delivery, we always focus the whole process.

Preheat Treatment
Many laboratory tests have shown preheat treatment of carbon steel to 300°F-400°F to be the equivalent of the post-heat treatment at no less than 1100°F insofar as the physical properties of the weldment are concerned.40,41 Some tests have indicated a slight advantage of the post-heat treatment. Most of the tests have been made on plates 3/4 in. - 1 in. thick; results must be viewed with caution if preheating is applied appreciably beyond this thickness range. However, for all practical purposes, improvement resulting from preheating is sufficiently well established so that preheat should be considered for field fabrication of API 620 crude oil tank plates over 3/4-in. thick whenever toughness of the tank API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks is highly desired and the thermal post-heat treatment is impractical.

The process parameters should be strictly controlled in sand blasting of API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks. The working pressure of abrasive chamber is between 0.5 and 0.6a, and the outlet pressure of air compressor shall not be lower than 0.6 WPa. According to the test results, the distance between nozzle and workpiece shall be controlled at 80 - 200 mm and spraying angle of 30 ~ 75°is appropriate.
