API 653 also provides for rules to design tanks for “higher internal pressure” Up to 2.5 Ibffin.2 (28 kPa). Low-pressure storage tanks are those designed to operate with pressures in their gas or vapor spaces exceeding the 2.5 Ibffin. (8 kPa) gauge permissible in API 653, but not exceeding the a5 Ibffin.?
