API standard 650 austenitic stainless steel storage tanks local deviations

The API 650 specification provides guidelines for the API standard 650 austenitic stainless steel storage tanks design, manufacturing, materials, installation and inspection of welded vertical and cylindrical tanks. Such containers must be on the ground and have a closed or open top.

The hardness of the welds contacting these environments, including the heat-affected zones, shall be considered. The weld metal and adjacent heat-affected zone often contain a zone of hardness that is well in excess of a value of 22 on the Rockwell C scale and could be expected to be more susceptible to cracking than would unwelded metal. Any hardness criteria shall be a matter of agreement between the Purchaser and the API standard 650 austenitic stainless steel storage tanks manufacturer and shall be based on an evaluation of the expected hydrogen sulfide concentration in the product, the possibility of moisture being present on the inside metal surface, and the strength and hardness characteristics of base metal and weld metal.

API standard 650 austenitic stainless steel storage tanks weld tightness test: remove dirt from the API standard 650 austenitic stainless steel storage tanks weld, apply white powder emulsion, spray kerosene on the other side of the weld after drying. Because of the strong penetration of kerosene, if kerosene is sprayed after 12 hours (under low temperature conditions, the time can be extended), if the surface of the welded seam coated with white emulsion has no spots, the welded seam meets the requirements.

Our products API standard 650 austenitic stainless steel storage tanks have strict quality inspection departments, so we have absolute quality and technical advantages. Good promotion system, with advanced business philosophy, create development space, enhance the value of employees, improve the quality of life as the mission. Pursuing green procurement, energy conservation and consumption reduction.

As we all know, steel pipes occupy more space in the process of transportation. If there is no good way of packing, the transportation cost for steel pipes will be a big expense. In view of this characteristic, our company is ingenious and adopts the nest package method to solve this problem perfectly. The premise of the nest package is that the diameters of the steel pipes are different, and the small diameter pipe is inserted in the large diameter pipe. This not only saves the volume, but also saves the transportation cost. It also reduces the loading and unloading workload by half, saves precious time, and enables customers to receive goods earlier.

The company attaches great importance to the cultivation of team spirit. Personal strength is weak. After sales service departments, leaders and subordinates often communicate with each other. Everyone often holds meetings to discuss their problems in after-sales service, discuss technical difficulties, discuss how to improve work efficiency, how to better deal with user complaints, etc.
