Standby or Permanent Storage
High-capacity
HiStor tanks, featuring modular space-saving rectangular
configurations, are the preferred choice for heavy-duty
permanent storage for materials up to 1.77 specific
gravity. Scaled to 6'3" in height, HiStors
offer 1/3 greater holding capacity than standard
4'-9"EconoTanks. They are the ideal configuration for
dredges, skimmers etc. Designed for durability, long
life and minimal
maintenance, the HiStor is assembled from heavy-duty
corrosion resistant components throughout. Support frames
are anchor bolted to a concrete apron.
Seismic
4 Design
A
special HiStor design engineered to meet Universal Building
Code Seismic 4 requirements is available. Its unique structural
design has been certified by a registered professional
engineer. Contact ModuTank Inc. for specifics.
Cost
Range
Low
cost bolt-together components and prefabricated membrane
liners minimize installation time and reduce costs below
those of comparable concrete or welded steel tanks.
Installation
Modular
components designed for hand-carrying and simple bolt-together
assembly assure quick installation by unskilled workers.
An easy to follow step-by-step manual guides the crew
through every aspect of HiStor tank installation.
The
2,000.000 gallon HiStor above, was installed on a
prepared site by a team of eight workers and a supervisor
in five days.
Piping
Inlet
and outlet pipes and other liquid product handling equipment
can be positioned and installed wherever desired with
through-the-wall flange fittings. Bottom drains and sumps
are also available.
Liners
A
variety of premium quality flexible membrane liners
is
available, including XR-5, polypropylene, and PVC. These
materials are compatible with most corrosive solutions
encountered by industry. Polypropylene is NSF61 approved
for potable water.
Leak
Detection
Double
liner leak detection sytems are available.
Covers
Floating
covers are fabricated from reinforced membrane materials
including XR-5 and Polypropylene. Covers, buoyed up by
floatation logs, ride the fluid’s surface and produce
practically vapor-tight enclosures. A wide variety of
fittings and vents is available.
General
Specifications
Wall
panels are 16 ga. G90 galvanized steel. Support frames
are 3” x 3” and 2” x 2” structural
steel angle; rails are 3” x 2” structural steel
angle; both are hot-dip galvanized after fabrication.
Stainless steel tension cables, plated bolts and anchors
are supplied. A choice of fitted liners and floating covers
in various gauges and materials is available.
Special
Shapes
Virtually
any shape utilizing right angles such as square, rectangle,
“S’’ - “L’’ - “X,’’
etc. can be assembled from HiStor’s unique, modular
components. This capability is especially useful for installations
with special flow requirements or irregularly shaped sites.
