STACKABLE BULK FLUID STORAGE CONTAINER
A bulk fluid storage container includes a frame assembly having a lower rectangular frame, first and second wheel assemblies extending from opposite ends of the lower rectangular frame, and an upper rectangular frame member arranged in spaced relation to the lower rectangular frame member by a plurality of vertically extending posts. The bulk fluid storage container also includes a fluid storage vessel having first and second end walls held in spaced relation by first and second side walls, a top wall and a bottom wall, which defines a fluid storage volume. A baffle assembly having a plurality of baffle plates is disposed in a space relationship in the fluid storage volume. The frame assembly provides an exoskeletal structure which surrounds the fluid storage vessel and is configured to support a second bulk fluid storage container in a vertically stacked relationship.

Overflow spout for tank
A modular overflow spout that covers a tank outlet comprising an overflow cover removably attached to a curb assembly. The overflow cover includes a canopy and a cover plate. The curb assembly comprises an outer curb having a lower curb flange that can be incorporated into the tank outlet and an upper curb flange that is positioned above the tank outlet. An inner curb is attached to the outer curb and can be incorporated into the tank outlet with the inner curb. The modularity allows the outer curb to be adjustable within the outlet so that the angle of the upper curb flange is conducive for attachment of the cover plate on the overflow cover after the curb assembly is incorporated into the tank roof.
Multiport Thief Hatch for Storage Tank
A multifunction tank access device is configured for connection to a storage tank capable of storing crude oil that has an opening for a conventional thief hatch. The multifunction tank access device has a lower assembly with an isolation valve, and an upper assembly removably connected to the lower assembly. The upper assembly includes a central housing, a pressure relief module, a vacuum relief module, and a tank access module. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the multifunction tank access device is constructed from a material that melts at a temperature below 450° F.

System and method of monitoring a diagnostic system of a process control system
Monitoring systems and methods for a relief valve system. In one example, a monitoring system for a relief valve includes at least one tilt sensor coupled to one or more of a cover or a latch of the relief valve. The at least one tilt sensor is associated with an interface. Upon detection by the at least one tilt sensor that one of the cover is open or the latch is unlocked, a signal is transmitted by the interface indicating one or more of the cover is open or the latch is unlocked.
Liquid storage tank protection system and method
A liquid storage tank has a breathing valve that vents the tank's headspace at a high-pressure value and admits an ambient gas at a low-pressure value. A controller generates a first control signal when the percentage of the catalyst gas is less than a catalyst threshold, a second control signal when the percentage of the catalyst gas exceeds the catalyst threshold, and a third control signal when the pressure in the headspace is equal to a low-pressure threshold between the breathing valve's low-pressure value and high-pressure value. The first valve is only opened to output inert gas at a discharge pressure greater than the breathing valve's high-pressure value in response to the second control signal. The second valve is only opened to output inert gas at a discharge pressure that is between the breathing valve's low-pressure value and high-pressure value in response to the third control signal.
Pressure relief valve
A pressure relief valve to balance the pressure between a cargo tank and the ambient atmosphere is described. The valve is so arranged that the velocity of the out flowing gas jet at no time is under a preset value when the valve is in open position. The valve comprises a valve body (2) designed to act against a valve seat (1) located in a structural outlet (5a) from the cargo tank, which valve body (2) is connected to a rod (7) extending into the structural outlet (5a) opening (5). The rod (7) is being supported and guided by a frame structure (6) extending into the structural outlet (5a) opening (5) and fixed to the structural outlet (5a).
