The design and construction for API Std 650 welded aluminum storage tanks

Except as permitted by API standard 620 Q.8.6, the test shall be conducted after the entire tank is complete, before the insulation is applied. Except as limited by foundation or stress conditions, the test shall consist of filling the tank with water to the design liquid level and applying an overload air pressure of 1.25 times the pressure for which the vapor space is designed. The load on the supporting foundation shall preferably not exceed the established allowable bearing value for the tank site. Where a thorough evaluation of the foundation justifies a temporary increase, the established allowable bearing may be increased for the test condition, but the increase shall be not more than 25%.

The effect of air pressure on the API Std 650 welded aluminum storage tanks tank walls of the API 650 tank must be considered when the design pressure is greater than 2 kPa.The fixed point method can be used to design the tank wall of atmospheric or micro internal pressure API Std 650 welded aluminum storage tanks storage tank.

Our client purchase more than 900 tons pipe API Std 650 welded aluminum storage tanks from India. And we do the inspection for each one pipe before shipment.During the inspection, the inspector saw that the surface of the square pipe kept the original color of the stainless steel, no fracture, no depression and other quality defects was found.

API Std 650 welded aluminum storage tanks weld tightness test: remove dirt from the API Std 650 welded aluminum storage tanks weld, apply white powder emulsion, spray kerosene on the other side of the weld after drying. Because of the strong penetration of kerosene, if kerosene is sprayed after 12 hours (under low temperature conditions, the time can be extended), if the surface of the welded seam coated with white emulsion has no spots, the welded seam meets the requirements.
