How to drain an external floating roof tank

2024-03-03View Original

Thread Content

In a floating roof tank, the floating roof rises and falls depending on the liquid level. When the liquid level in the tank is low, if it rains heavily, will all the rainwater end up inside the tank? Is there some drainage system designed into the tank for this purpose? I’m not very familiar with it; those who know could share, thanks

The design of external floating roof tanks typically includes a drainage system to handle water accumulation and prevent rainwater from building up. Generally, drainage ditches and drainage holes are installed on the floating roof to use gravity to drain rainwater out of the tank. Some designs also use automatic or manual drainage pumps to assist with drainage. .

The drainage pipe needs to be installed; how can water accumulate on the floating roof?

There must be drainage; it’s impossible for liquid to enter the tank

Drainage holes are provided at the edges of the external floating roof.
