For a liquid storage tank, the pressure rating is the gas pressure at the top of the tank. atmospheric means no pressure, as when the tank is freely vented to the atmosphere. tanks designed for atmosheric pressure (in other words, not designed for pressure) are usually still good for a pressure or 1" to 2" water column or more, depending on. Atmospheric storage tanks, compliance aspects gert van meijeren managing director, cts - introduction cts - safety standards -emission standards -tank construction and design -tank maintenance and. Relief of atmospheric tanks is often misunderstood leading to situations where the tank may be subjected to pressures outside of the design limitations. this paper provides a summary of the design requirements for low-pressure storage tanks especially relating to the design and sizing of pressure relief systems. the various pressure relief.
