Testing the Outer Tank: While the test pressure is being held, all welded seams and connections in the outer shell and roof shall be thoroughly inspected with a solution film unless they were previously checked with a vacuum box. The API standard 650 low-alloy steel tanks air pressure shall be released. Pressure relief and vacuum relief valves shall be checked by applying the design gas pressure to the outer tank, followed by evacuation of the outer space to the vacuum setting of the relief valve.

Compared with the external floating roof API standard 650 low-alloy steel tanks, the internal floating roof API standard 650 low-alloy steel tanks has the advantages of protecting the floating roof from wind and rain and ensuring the quality of liquid storage under the floating roof. At the same time, because the inner floating plate is in the tank, there is no rain and snow load, so the central drainage pipe and escalator and other accessories on the floating plate can be omitted. In addition, under the same sealing conditions, the internal floating roof tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the External floating roof tank.
