API standard 650 larger diameter tanks slab foundations

The internal floating plate of internal floating roof tank of API 650 tank is different from that of open floating plate of API standard 650 larger diameter tanks External floating roof tank of API 650 tank, so it is impossible to have rain and snow load.

Proper use of API standard 650 larger diameter tanks and precautions:
1. The API standard 650 larger diameter tanks must be used within the safe height range;
2. Check before use to ensure that the safety valve and breathing valve are flexible and easy to use;
3. The explosion-proof and fire-proof safety measures for oil tanks are implemented effectively;
4. The oil level in the API standard 650 larger diameter tanks should be accurately measured when receiving and delivering oil, so as to prevent overflow or empty;
5. In the process of receiving and sending oil, the flow rate of oil should be controlled, and it should not be too fast to avoid electrostatic accidents.
