How to do a good job in the maintenance of metal oil tanks

The longer the service life of the oil tank, the lower the reliability and the prone to failure. Doing a good job in the maintenance of the metal oil tank can ensure the normal use of the oil tank, reduce the wear of the tank body and accessories, and extend the service life of the oil tank. The maintenance of metal oil tanks is mainly to do a good job in the anti-corrosion of the oil tank, the cleaning of the deposits in the tank and the overhaul of its accessories.

1. Oil tank anticorrosion
After a certain period of use, the anti-corrosion condition of the metal oil tank needs to be checked. When necessary, the outer wall of the tank is newly painted with anti-corrosion paint to ensure that the outer wall of the metal oil tank is not damaged or peeled off, so that the oil tank has better water resistance and rust resistance.

2. Oil tank cleaning
Long-term use of oil tanks will generate impurities on the tank wall and deposit on the tank bottom, causing the tank body to corrode to leakage. The oil tanks are cleaned and derusted regularly in accordance with the oil tank safety standards to ensure the quality of the stored oil and the safety of the equipment in the oil tank.

3. Accessory maintenance
Regularly inspect and maintain the accessories of the oil tank: valves, oil measuring holes, breathing valves, flame arresters, ladders, foam fire extinguishing generators, etc., and make records. If any damage is found, repair them in time.
