Storage Tank Floor Inspection

And when used in combination with our in service robotic tank floor inspection service.

Storage tank floor inspection.

In service intrinsically safe is storage tank inspections. Deferral of out of service tank inspection can be obtained. With its super thin 4 8 mm 0 2 in titanium blade and liftoff tolerance up to 13 mm 0 5 in the probe can slide up to 400 mm 16 in under a tank floor s edge enabling it to assess the remaining wall thickness of this critical region exposed to corrosion. Above ground storage tank inspection.

Traditional floor inspections are performed manually requiring storage tanks to be taken out of service cleaned and degassed to allow workers to enter the confined space. While the methodology does not meet the requirements of api 653. Api 653 tank inspections why inspect your tanks. With the combination of highly skilled personnel in service robotic tank floor inspection systems irts provides api 653 compliant inspections of above ground storage tanks without the safety risks cost or hassle of removing tanks from operations.

The tank floor probe is specifically designed for this type of inspection. Api 653 robotic tank inspection is incorporated as an approved method under the api 575. Ae of storage tanks is a great tool to help prioritize maintenance. Prevent leaks into your secondary containment or to groundwater if you do not have a secondary containment system establish a baseline of tank condition and corrosion rates identify problems to perform repairs before you have a significant leak or release maintain your capital asset minimize chance of catastrophic tank failure.

These tank turnarounds create vapor clouds create unique safety risks and are extremely costly due to both prepping the tank for human occupation and the opportunity cost.
