Every day, and especially in chemical and petrochemical sectors, the need arises to store products that are harmful to health and the environment, either because of their toxic, corrosive, flammable nature or because they are under pressure. In this sense, current legislation establishes a series of requirements to be taken into account in the production process, with the aim of ensuring the quality, functionality and safety of the equipment in question. The manufacture must be carried out following the guidelines established by a prestigious Design Code, and the traceability of the materials, the supporting calculation, the welding homologation, tests and pertinent tests must be taken into account, as well as the periodic inspections by part of the notified body.
These are the standards, regulations and Design Code under which we can manufacture:
ITC MIE-APQ: Regulations for the storage of chemical products and complementary technical instructions.
UNE EN 14015: Specification for the design and manufacture of steel tanks.
API-650: Welded Steel Tanks for Oil Storage.
UNE EN 13445: Pressure vessels not subjected to flame.
AD MERCKBLATTER: Technical standards for pressure vessels.
ASME: Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.
At ETD you can find the necessary advice, as well as the preparation of all the documentation required by the Authorized Control Bodies.
