Can 8-character blind plates and quick shut-off valves be used on one side of the storage tank?

In accordance with Article 7.2.16 of the \"Code for Fire Protection Design of Petrochemical Enterprises (2018 Edition)\\" (GB 50160-2008), pipelines for flammable gases, liquefied hydrocarbons, and flammable liquids entering and leaving the plant shall be equipped with isolation valves and 8-shaped blind plates at the plant’s boundary. The 8-shaped blind flanges and quick shut-off valves for the combustible liquid pipeline inlet and outlet devices of our company are located on the side of the tank area; can we have similar ones on the side of the equipment as well? But the design specifications are written at the boundaries of the device. The facility and the storage tank are separated by just one road.
No. Per the specification requirements, the 8-character blind flange and quick shut-off valve should be located at the boundary of the facility, rather than on the side of the tank area, even if the facility and the tanks are separated only by a road. It needs to be reset according to the specifications. .
