Design and Manufacturing
Our bolted steel tanks are available in the following shapes:
Cylindrical
Rectangular (for non-standard projects)
They consist of galvanised steel, stainless steel and aluminium sheets which are processed in the factory according to a Blue Tank standard and assembled on site by bolting.
Standard features
- Aluminium caged ladder with an access platform of 1200 x 800 mm
- 3 KW resistor for tank freeze protection
- Convection chamber
- Drain valve DN80
- Hydrostatic pressure gauge
- Overfill prevention sensor
Options
- Architectural quality powder coated paints (colour chosen by the customer)
The bolts of the tanks are then provided with nut covers of the same colour. - Tank insulation
- Other equipment to be defined with the client
Capacities of our tanks
Calculation tool
These capacities are given as an indication. They may vary according to the standards taken into account.
Our design office
Equipped with CAM software (Computer Aided Manufacturing), CAD (Computer Aided Design) and finite element calculations:
Calculations according to Eurocodes, AWWA, Seismic Zone EC8...
Customised calculation notes by case for a wind study of the tank, in empty configuration, according to Eurocodes. Max stress and displacement verification
Load distribution for the design of the base: seismic moment, hydrodynamic pressure on the surface of the base, anchors...
