Storage Tank Safety Inspection Guidelines
Comprehensive procedures for ensuring storage tank integrity and safety compliance
1.Tank Body Integrity Inspection
- Verify whether the tank material meets safety specifications
- Check for defects such as corrosion, deformation, and cracks on the surface
- Ensure tank wall thickness meets pressure requirements
- Confirm structural stability through professional testing methods
- Check whether welds are strong and free of hidden dangers
- Inspect for leaks in key areas such as the tank bottom and top
2.Sealing System Tightness Inspection
- Conduct tightness tests on all sealing interfaces, valves, and flanges
- Verify sealing effect through pressure tests or leakage tests
- Check whether seals are aged or damaged
- Ensure valves open and close flexibly without leakage
- Check sealing performance of tank heads and manholes
- Prevent gasoline evaporation or leakage from causing safety accidents
3.Auxiliary Equipment Functionality Inspection
- Inspect operating status of safety valves, pressure gauges, and level gauges
- Ensure equipment is sensitive, reliable, and displays accurate values
- Verify effectiveness of anti-static devices and lightning protection facilities
- Ensure proper grounding of all equipment
- Check that emergency shut-off valves and fire hydrants are fully functional
- Ensure auxiliary pipelines are free of blockages and corrosion
4.Compliance and Environmental Indicator Testing
- Confirm storage tank meets industry safety standards and environmental requirements
- Verify integrity of tank's anti-corrosion coating
- Ensure coating is free from peeling or aging
- Inspect surrounding environmental protection facilities for completeness
- Check for excessive gasoline evaporation and wastewater treatment compliance
- Verify that safety warning signs are clear and testing records are complete
