aluminum sheet 5456 API 650 flat-bottom tanks

Proof Tests for Establishing Allowable Working PressuresBecause pressures in liquid storage tanks built according to these rules vary quite markedly from the tops to the bottoms of the tanks, proof testing of these tanks presents problems not usually encountered in the construction of unfired pressure vessels–especially where the API 650 flat-bottom tanks parts under investigation are located near the bottoms of the tanks. The principal difficulty is devising a test or series of tests that will reliably establish the working pressure that can be permitted on the part of the unproven design without, at the same time, imposing hazardous conditions on other parts located at higher levels in the tank.

The temperature requirements of the API 650 oil storage tank area are closely related to the evaporation loss, energy loss, API 650 flat-bottom tanks storage and storage platform tank materials and the selection of detection instruments, or the temperature of the API 650 oil storage tank area. The cost of storage has a direct impact.

API 650 flat-bottom tanks foam generator is a fire extinguishing device fixed on the oil tank. One end of the foam generator is connected to the foam pipeline, and one end is flanged on the top layer of the API 650 flat-bottom tanks wall. Fire extinguishing foam flows through the air intake entrance of the fire foam chamber, inhaling a large amount of air to form foam, and breaking through the insulating glass into the tank (glass thickness is not greater than 2mm), so as to achieve the purpose of fire fighting.
