Safety assurance of liquid oxygen storage tanks
The structure of liquid oxygen storage tanks is carefully designed to have sufficient strength and toughness to prevent rupture or leakage under extreme conditions.
Liquid oxygen storage tanks are usually made of high-strength materials, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy, to withstand low temperature and high pressure environments. The structure of the tank is carefully designed to have sufficient strength and toughness to prevent rupture or leakage under extreme conditions. At the same time, the outer layer of the tank is usually made of insulating materials to reduce heat conduction, prevent liquid oxygen evaporation, and ensure safe storage.
Liquid oxygen storage tanks are equipped with pressure relief valves to monitor internal pressure and automatically release gas when it exceeds the set range. This mechanism prevents potential explosion risks when the pressure is too high and ensures that the pressure in the tank remains at a safe level.
Temperature sensors are installed in liquid oxygen storage tanks to monitor the temperature of liquid oxygen in real time. These sensors can quickly feedback temperature changes to ensure that the temperature in the tank remains within a safe range, thereby preventing accidental evaporation or overheating of liquid oxygen.
Liquid oxygen storage tanks require regular maintenance and inspection, including checking the integrity of welding points, valves and pipelines. These inspections help to detect potential faults or damage and ensure the safety of the tank during operation.
