Tank cover_5083-O aluminum plate manufacturer for LNG tank ceiling

5083 aluminum alloy for ultra-low temperature storage tanks has become a widely used material for manufacturing low temperature storage tanks due to its unique properties. 5083 aluminum alloy is also widely used in the manufacture of LNG ships and LNG storage tanks. A series of LNG storage tanks and transport ships have been built since the 1950s and 1960s. Among them, there are LNG storage tanks with main wall structures made of 5083 aluminum alloy. However, most aluminum alloys are still important materials for the top structure of storage tanks due to their unique light weight and properties.

Aluminum alloy tank top covers have the following characteristics
After using aluminum mesh shells and aluminum alloy top plates, the weight is reduced, which reduces the load of the tank and its foundation accordingly. For example, the aluminum top cover with a diameter of 30~60m is 1/41/9 of the weight of the steel mesh shell top cover.
Aluminum alloy materials have good performance, so the aluminum mesh shell top cover does not need to be processed on the top cover part, saving costs and engineering indirect costs. No maintenance is required during the renovation period, saving a lot of inspection and repair costs. The radiant heat reflected by aluminum can reach, so when the aluminum mesh shell top cover is used on the dome tank, it can reduce the volatilization loss of volatile media.
The strength of aluminum alloy materials is higher at low temperatures than at normal temperatures, and it is an ideal material for low-temperature working conditions. Therefore, after using aluminum mesh shells and top plates, the insulation materials and costs added to prevent the low-temperature brittleness of materials can be saved during the entire service life.
The aluminum alloy top cover is directly connected to the inverted channel steel on the tank wall through the support on the mesh shell, and the sealing structure is used to seal the aluminum and steel, which also increases the stability of the tank wall plate.
