Horizontal – Insulated,
Range : (250 « 12500) U S Gallon

APPLIED STANDARD BS 4994: 1987 Design and Construction of Vessels and Tanks in Reinforced Plastics.
 

RAW MATERIALS :
Selected, high quality raw materials which are preferable and approved for specified requirement are being practiced. In order to attain a maximum product quality and properties formulation of these materials is strictly according to the material manufacturer’s recommendation. All materials selected and applied are especially designed to perform ideal for the local conditions and to prevail a perfect laminate.


Apart from the above, if the tanks are for potable water intended for human consumption ultimate care is ensured for raw material practices. Periodical tests are conducted in accredited laboratories to assure that the laminate does not taint the quality of the content stored in the tank.



FABRICATION :
Well trained dedicated personnel under adequate supervision are being utilized for the fabrication of the tanks. The tanks are fabricated by contact mould hand lay up process. All seam joints shall be formed by addition of overlay layers as per the requirement of the practiced standard. Optimum protection against ultraviolet rays is assured by providing U V Resistant gelcoat and topcoat.  Apart from the above to insure a completely opaque tank body in an intention to prevent algae growth inside the tank, black / grey colour coating is provided between laminate layers throughout the tank body. Curing of the products is strictly according to the design requirement and as per the resin manufacturer’s recommendation. 

SURFACE FINISH : The tanks will have smooth mould finish internally except seam portion and coated rough hand lay up finish externally.

TYPE  OF CONSTRUCTION : Seamed externally bolted type tanks are normally available. Seamless shell type will be fabricated only on request.

CONNECTIONS : All tanks will have provisions for fixing standard connectors. Connectors will be provided along with tank only  on request.

SECTIONAL TANKS

High quality Sectional / Panel tanks for potable water intended for human consumption.
Types :
Non Insulated, Polyurethane Insulated

METHOD OF MANUFACTURE : Hand lay up and cold press moulding followed by post curing by hot air bath / Hot water bath. 
 

RAW MATERIALS : Since the tanks are intended to store water for human consumption ultimate care is ensured for raw material practices. Selected, high quality raw materials which are preferable and approved for specified requirement are being practiced. In order to attain a maximum product quality and properties formulation of these materials is strictly according to the material manufacturer’s recommendation.


The tanks has been tested and recorded acceptable for the purpose of storing drinking water by Abu Dhabi Municipality Food and Environment department. Periodical tests are conducted in accredited laboratories to assure that the laminate does not taint the quality of the content stored in the tank.  

SURFACE FINISH  :  The tanks will have smooth mould finish both internally and externally.

FABRICATION & ASSEMBLY : Well trained dedicated personnel under adequate supervision are being utilized for the fabrication of the panels. Optimum protection against ultraviolet rays is assured by providing U V Resistant gelcoat and topcoat.  Apart from the above to insure a completely opaque tank in an intention to prevent algae growth inside the tank, black / grey colour coating is provided between laminate layers throughout the panel. Curing of the Panels is strictly according to the resin manufacturer’s recommendation.

For assembling the panels together all panels are drilled in plant with help of jig. Assembly of the panels to form the tank will be carried out over the foundation / metal skid at site. Metal skid will be provided only if requested by customer. High quality, U V Ray resistant P V C Foam seal is used as gasket for the panel joints to ensure a leak proof joint. Fasteners used are of size M10, Stainless steel of A4/316 Grade. The pitch between fasteners will be less than 150mm. The panel joints for wall and floor are stiffened by jig drilled hot dipped Galvanized flat bar externally. All the vertical corners will be further stiffened with hot dipped Galvanized equal angle.

 BRAZING : Tanks with height more than 1.0m will have external or internal brazing as required. If internal brazing is intended the material used will be stainless steel of grade A4/316. The external brazing component will be galvanized or rust proofed mild steel. 

CONNECTIONS / INTERNAL PIPINGS : All tanks will be equipped with standard type connection flanges (PN16, U P V C) at desired location.  

QUALITY ASSURANCE : Quality assurance is strictly as per the requirement of BS EN ISO 9001: 2000. All records pertaining to the Quality of the will be preserved and is available for verification / review whenever required by the responsible authority.
