First, remove the sealing tape from the same side of the old floating pad! Then, the steam tank has its old floating disk removed, the tank is cleaned to remove oil and dust deposits from the bottom, and finally a new floating disk is installed!

The precautions vary depending on the type of material; Moreover, the methods of fixing the floats to the inner floating disk also vary ; It is also unclear whether to replace individual floats or the entire set of floats First, the situation needs to be made clear. But in general, it involves replacing the storage tanks, ensuring proper ventilation and cleaning, testing the concentrations of flammable gases, toxic gases, and oxygen levels. When working with open flames, it is necessary to remove all flammable materials. If the float is damaged, special attention must be paid to check whether there are any chemical substances inside it. The complexity of major repairs and minor repairs differs, as does the level of oversight required. So be sure to clarify the issue

The storage tank has its entire floating deck replaced; the medium is mainly gasoline and naphtha.

Thank you. Does your company manufacture fully submerged floating pads?

Those who install floating platforms these days are experienced workers from the manufacturers; all that’s needed is to cooperate. What should be paid attention to? Make sure no one gets injured. Clean the tank before replacing the floating disk; accidents can occur in confined spaces.

Check whether your tank is deformed; after replacing the float, examine the distance between the tongue membrane and the tank wall, and check whether the floats are installed evenly. Conduct a water test to see if the float can float and whether there is any leakage.
