TANKS Steel Water Tanks Glavanised and corrugated steel water tanks, designed to hold large volumes of water: from 2 m3/h to 1769 m3/h . All tanks have CE-certification, in line with the guidelines for EN 1090-1:2009+A1:2011 . Water tanks are transported as a compact installation package and can be installed with man power only . Liners: Liners include the bottom insulation blanket 250gr/m2 and wall blanket 250gr/m2 . - PVC Liner 0 .5mm is recommended for storing rain and clean water . - PVC Liner 1 .0mm is recommended for Aquaculture . PVC Liners are easier to repair . - PVC Extreme Liner 0 .75mm is KIWA certified and can resist up to 3ppm of Chlorine . - EX liner 0 .6mm is a high quality foil with a higher life expectancy than the PVC liner and suitable for high tanks (>5 .37m) due to its higher elasticity . It has a high UV-radiation resistance and chemical resistance (fertilisers) but not resistant to Chlorine . EX material also weights 35% less than PVC liners . Additional Liners are available such as: EPDM in 0 .75, 1 .0 and 1 .2 mm and PVC Extreme 0 .75 mm . Installation: Prior to installation the ground needs to be prepared and ready for installation . Concrete floor or corners, need to be dry (+14 days after construction) and sand needs to be levelled properly . If the bedding of the tank floor is made of rocks or if the concrete floor is not 100% flat, sand needs to be put on top in order to protect the liner from damage . Remember to place the Liner inside the tank ring before building the panels . The standard depth to which the tanks must be installed is 0 .40m deep into the ground . Tanks of 5 .37m in height need to be installed 0 .80m deep into the ground and should come with an EX or EPDM liner . Indicate the position, size and amount of conical outlets that you need when ordering. Conical outlets should be the same material as the liner. 302
