Yes, Class A liquid storage tanks require safety valves for discharge under fire conditions. Because during a fire, the pressure inside the tank continues to rise; if a safety valve is not present to release this pressure in a timely manner, it could lead to the tank rupturing or exploding, resulting in severe casualties and substantial property damage. Therefore, to ensure the safety of industrial production, Class A liquid storage tanks must be equipped with safety valves and undergo regular inspection and maintenance. .

Is there any standard that supports this view? Asked an expert, and they said a safety valve isn’t necessary
