Steel pipe materials for API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks
API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks Liquid Relief ValvesA tank, which is likely to operate completely filled with liquid, shall be equipped with one or more liquid relief valves at the top of the roof, unless otherwise protected against overpressure. When such valves are, in effect, supplementary relief devices, they may be set at a pressure not greater than 1.25 times the design pressure. Because the relief valve at the pump, which provides the inflow of liquid to the tank, is set at a pressure greater than 1.25 times the design pressure of any tank that may be built under these rules, provision should be made for preventing overfilling of the tank by a self-closing float valve, by some practicable pilot-valve control, or by any other proven device.
Selection of nominal diameter D of API 650 storage tank. In the design calculation of API 650 storage tank, the bottom plate thickness is the net plate thickness, that is, the actual thickness minus the corrosion allowance. In the design and calculation of API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks wall thickness in hydrostatic test, the thickness of bottom plate is the total thickness of steel plate.
In 2013, one of our clients in Korea purchased 890 tons Q345B square tube from us for one building construction project. Our clients required no burr in the side of the tube, we finally produce the goods with great condition and +/-0.25mm tolerance for wall thickness, which is a very great tolerance with customers’ required size. Our square tube full available range is 2-16mm for wall thickness, and 40-500mm for width. In addition, our Q/C department will seriously control all of the process of every order.
}The mechanical seal of floating roof API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks relies on mechanical force to press the sealing steel plate tightly against the tank wall, so that it can slide on the tank wall and avoid gap as far as possible. However, mechanical seal has high requirements for the geometry of storage tank and poor adaptability, so mechanical seal is rarely used in newly built floating roof API Std 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks.
We should focus on the main problems to be solved and pay attention to efficiency. After receiving the user's quality objection report data, the possible causes, responsible units, compensation amount, etc. of the problem shall be judged based on experience. To have a clear service plan, to be clear about what your main problem is, what technical support is needed, these should be prepared.
