The maximum design liquid level of API 650 flexible liquid 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%.
API 650 Application As described by the American Petroleum Institute, the fabrication and installation of our surface welded API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks steel storage tanks is normally used in industrial applications. In general, our standards for industrial on-site installation of storage tanks are established according to API 650, API 620 and API 12D.
In 2016, we brought our customer to visit our NM400 hot rolled plate; producing line and our shanghai warehouse for 30,000 tons plate and structure. As a result, Our client purchased 500 tons NM400 as first order, which is shipped by 3 times. In future. Our company will always guarantee that all the delivery condition for Hardox plate API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks provided will be with quenching and tempering, which is the best delivery type according GB/T 24186 standard.
}When the API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks is welded, the weldment should be fixed rigidly. After welding, when the weldment is cooled to normal temperature, the rigid fixation can be removed, which can effectively prevent angular deformation and wave deformation. Although some measures have been taken, the welding deformation of API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks is still unavoidable, so it is necessary to take corrective measures to compensate the deformation. Mechanical correction is to make the parts easy to deform in the welding process by mechanical or other rigid materials to produce simple deformation, so as to restore the state before welding.
Both parties shall confirm the API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks material object and the quality of the products, confirm the reasons for the defects and the quality of the products, and sign the quality inspection agreement. Major quality objections shall be reported to relevant leaders in a timely manner, and shall be discussed and solved with the API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks steel plant.
