Glass lined water storage tank

The glass lined water storage tank adopts advanced manufacturing technology and high-quality materials, which not only have extremely high corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, but also have a smooth and easy to clean surface, setting a new benchmark for the water storage industry. Judging whether the glass lined water storage tank is leaking is a key maintenance step, and the following are some effective detection methods:

1. Appearance inspection method

Firstly, carefully inspect the exterior of the glass lined water storage tank, especially the welds, connections, and vulnerable areas. Look for obvious signs of moisture, water stains, or rust, which may be signs of water leakage. In dimly lit environments, lighting tools such as flashlights can be used to illuminate the suspected leaking area of the water storage tank, in order to observe more clearly whether there is any leakage.

2. Stress testing method

Pressure testing of glass lined water storage tanks is usually achieved by injecting a certain pressure of gas or liquid into the tank. During the pressurization process, observe the changes in the reading of the pressure gauge and whether there are signs of gas or liquid leakage outside the water storage tank. After reaching the predetermined pressure, maintain it for a period of time (such as several hours) and observe whether the reading on the pressure gauge is stable. If the pressure continues to decrease, it may indicate a leakage problem in the water storage tank.

3. Bubble detection method

Apply soapy water to the suspected leaking area and observe for the formation of bubbles. If bubbles emerge, it indicates that there is water leakage in that area. There are specialized bubble detection agents on the market. When using them, spray them on the suspected leaking area and observe whether bubbles are generated. This method is more sensitive and accurate than applying soapy water.

4. Leakage rate testing method

Quantitatively measure the leakage rate of glass lined water storage tanks using specific leakage rate testing equipment. This method requires professional testing equipment and operational skills, but can provide more accurate leakage assessment.

5. Operation monitoring method

Regularly monitor the operation status of the water storage tank during normal operation. Observing changes in water level, pressure fluctuations, and abnormal sounds in the water storage tank may be indirect manifestations of water leakage problems.
In summary, it is necessary to comprehensively use multiple detection methods and conduct a comprehensive analysis based on the actual situation to determine whether the glass lined water storage tank is leaking. By timely detection and maintenance, the normal operation and extended service life of the water storage tank can be ensured.
