API 650 flat-bottom tanks limitations
Test welds of each API 650 tank nozzle and manway reinforcing pad (or each section of multiple piece pad) using dry air and apply a soap solution test in the presence of Purchaser's Inspector before hydro testing the API 650 flat-bottom tanks tank. Tap one inch NPT test hole in each pad or section.
In order to prevent the deformation of the bottom of metal vertical API 650 flat-bottom tanks during welding, comprehensive control measures such as strict control of assembly geometry size, reasonable welding procedure, process control of welding deformation and rigid fixation are adopted during assembly welding. The specific methods are as follows:1. Strictly control welding groove forming of API 650 flat-bottom tanks.2. Strictly control the size of tank welding seam assembly.3. Define the welding sequence of tank bottom plate.4. Reasonable distribution of welders.
Cylindrical Oil storage tanks Discharge PipesWhen a discharge pipe is used on the outlet side of such relieving devices, its area shall be not less than the area of the valve outlet, or if a single pipe provides for discharge from several relief devices, its area shall be not less than the aggregate area of the valve outlets. The API 650 flat-bottom tanks discharge pipe shall be fitted with an open drain to prevent water or other liquids from lodging in the discharge side of the valves.Discharge pipes shall be supported so that no undue stress is placed on the valve body. Open discharges shall be placed and oriented so that the outflow is directed away from the tank and will not create a hazard over walkways, stairways, or operating platforms.
