Dear heroes: I'm a newbie and I have some questions.: The main inlet and outlet pipes of oil storage tanks should adopt flexible or flexible connections. What are the flexible connections and flexible connections here? Please feel free to enlighten me, thank you!

Prevent oil tanks from sinking and damaging pipelines.

To put it simply, add metal hoses or expansion joints

I can’t tell you exactly. I’ve seen a lot of information about adding a metal hose or something at the outlet to prevent the tank foundation from sinking, etc., so that it won’t affect the outlet pipe.

Metal flexible pipes are mainly used to prevent violent damage such as earthquakes, which may cause displacement of the oil tank and cause cracks or pipeline breakage, leading to leakage accidents. They can also prevent oil tanks from sinking (I have seen oil tanks sink, and if rigid connections are used, there may be problems) and thermal expansion and contraction. But I’m not sure about the flexible connection. Please correct me. It’s best to send a picture. This post was last edited by HUANGYUN on 2009-3-18 12:49 ]

Please clear up any doubts, thank you----7.2.18 Liquefied hydrocarbon, liquid chlorine, and liquid ammonia pipelines must not be connected by hoses, and flammable liquid pipelines must not be connected by non-metallic hoses.
