Stainless Steel Tank ManufacturerHow to choose: The selection of stainless steel tanks is very important. When choosing, attention should be paid to the following aspects:

       1. Gather process design data: After material balance and heat balance, calculate the temperature, pressure, maximum working pressure, highest working temperature, lowest working temperature, corrosiveness, toxicity, vapor pressure, inflow and outflow, etc. of the materials to be stored in the stainless steel tank. These data are gathered as the basic design data.

       2. Choose the material of the stainless steel tank: For chemical storage tanks, the corrosiveness of the medium is an important factor in considering the tank material. Corrosive materials can choose enamel containers or glass-lined containers depending on the working pressure and temperature, or use rubber lining, porcelain lining, or PTFE lining in steel pressure vessels to improve the corrosion resistance of the container.

       3. Determine the type of stainless steel tank: The selection of tank form includes horizontal or vertical and the type of head. During the design, based on the requirements of the process conditions, select a container type from the national standard series that matches the parameters of the process conditions (working pressure, working temperature, medium, volume).

       4. Determine the total volume of materials to be stored: After determining the total volume of stored materials, calculate the volume of the stainless steel tank according to the specifications.

       5. Determine the number of stainless steel tanks and initial dimensions: The total volume of materials to be stored divided by the suitable volume of the stainless steel tank gives the required number of tanks after rounding. First, initially determine the suitable volume of the tank, which is decided based on factors such as the type of tank, the nature of the stored materials, the size of the available site, and the processing capacity of the equipment. After initially determining the suitable volume of the tank, the total volume of materials to be stored divided by the suitable volume of the tank gives the required number of tanks after rounding. Once the number of tanks is determined, adjustments can be made to the initially determined suitable volume to obtain the actual tank volume.

       6. Choose standard models: Based on the initially determined tank diameter, length, volume, working temperature, working pressure, and corrosiveness of the medium, try to select specifications that match within the national standard series. If no matching specifications can be found in the standard series, choose a similar specification and make some adjustments to the dimensions and ports to use as non-standard equipment. This can greatly reduce the workload of the design.
