12、ormally submerged steel surfaces inside steel water storage tanks. This standard provides owners, engineers, and contractors with guidelines for the application of CP to the submerged surfaces of steel water storage tanks; for determining the effectiveness of these CP systems; and for the operation

13、and maintenance of these CP systems. This standard is applicable to steel water storage tanks of various sizes used in municipal water supply and fire protection, including elevated tanks and flat-bottom tanks at ground level. Although the practices presented in this standard generally are applicabl

14、e to all such tanks, the galvanic anode CP system described in this standard may not be practical for relatively large tanks. This standard was originally prepared in 1996 by NACE Task Group (TG) T-7L-1, a component of Unit Committee T-7L, “Cathodic Protection.” It was revised in 2004, 2011, and 201

15、5 by TG 284, “Cathodic Protection, Galvanic Anode for Internal Submerged Surfaces of Steel Water Storage TanksReview of NACE SP0196.” TG 284 is administered by Specific Technology Group (STG) 05, “Cathodic/Anodic Protection.” It is sponsored by STG 11, “Water Treatment,” and STG 35, “Pipelines, Tank

16、s, and Well Casings.” This standard is issued by NACE under the auspices of STG 05. In NACE standards, the terms shall, must, should, and may are used in accordance with the definitions of these terms in the NACE Publications Style Manual. The terms shall and must are used to state a requirement, an

17、d are considered mandatory. The term should is used to state something good and is recommended, but is not considered mandatory. The term may is used to state something considered optional.

20、sing galvanic anodes to apply CP to the internal submerged surfaces of steel tanks used for the storage of potable and reclaimed water, drinking water, irrigation water, and fire protection water. Appendix A (nonmandatory) provides guidance for the use of CP for the internal surfaces of tanks and ve

21、ssels containing other waters. 1.2 Impressed current CP systems are used extensively for the internal surfaces of water storage tanks; however, this standard addresses only galvanic anode CP systems. For a description of impressed current CP systems, refer to NACE SP0388.1 1.3 The ground level and e

22、levated storage tanks considered in this standard are of welded, bolted, or riveted-steel construction, and include many shapes and sizes. 1.4 CP as described in this standard may be used alone to control corrosion of submerged steel surfaces or may be used as a complement to the protection provided

23、 by protective coatings or other procedures.2 CP cannot protect surfaces that are not submerged; these surfaces are typically protected by coatings alone. 1.5 CP may be installed to control corrosion in both newly constructed and existing tanks. When CP is used on existing tanks, it may be necessary

24、 to drain the tank during installation. 1.6 Tanks under consideration for application of CP are often associated with potable water and fire protection systems that may be subject to public health and safety regulations.3 This standard shall not infringe on those regulations. Proper disinfection of

25、the tanks may be required after installation. 1.7 The provisions of this standard should be applied under the direction of a competent corrosion engineer. The term “corrosion engineer,” as used in this standard, refers to a person who, by reason of knowledge of the physical sciences and the principl

26、es of engineering and mathematics as acquired by professional education and related practical experience, is qualified to practice corrosion control, including CP, for water storage tanks. Such persons may be Registered Professional Engineers or persons recognized as being qualified or certified as

27、Corrosion Specialists or CP Specialists by NACE, if their professional activities include suitable experience in corrosion control and CP. 1.8 This standard may not be applicable in all situations. The corrosion engineer may consider alternative corrosion control methods. _ Section 2: Definitions An

43、1 Introduction 3.1.1 Steel tank surfaces submerged in natural waters are subject to corrosion. The methods and procedures used to control corrosion should be governed by the rate of corrosion and the cost of maintaining the tank, including the water quality and planned useful life of the tank. 3.1.2

44、 All coatings are subject to damage and deterioration. Therefore, corrosion control by use of coatings alone on the submerged surfaces of a steel water storage tank is usually not possible. NACE International 3 3.1.3 CP is effective in controlling corrosion only on submerged metal surfaces during su

45、bmersion. It does not reverse structural damage already caused by corrosion. CP may not be effective under disbonded coating. 3.2 Coated Steel Tanks 3.2.1 CP should be used to reduce corrosion on submerged, coated steel tank surfaces where holidays existor are anticipatedand where corrosion would oc

46、cur as a result of those holidays. 3.2.2 The use of dissimilar metals inside the tank may contribute to the creation of a localized galvanic corrosion cell. Where the use of dissimilar metals cannot be avoided, the dissimilar metals should be electrically isolated from the steel tank shell where pos

47、sible. The application of a protective coating on the more noble metal components may be used in lieu of electrical isolation, provided that the coating can be properly applied and maintained. 3.2.3 If the water is sufficiently corrosive to justify the use of a coating, then CP is also justified and

48、 the combination provides a greater degree of protection than when either method is used alone. 3.2.4 Properly designed and maintained CP systems extend the time between recoating the submerged interior surfaces. 3.2.5 The current required for CP is much lower for coated steel tanks compared with bare or poorly coated steel tanks. 3.3 Uncoated Steel Tanks 3.3.1 It is feasible to design a CP system to provide protection for uncoated submerged surfaces of steel tanks (see Section 4). 3.3.2 It may be more practica
