Standby or Permanent Storage
High-capacity
HiStor tanks, featuring modular space-saving rectangular configurations,
are the preferred choice for heavy-duty permanent storage. Scaled
to 6'3" in height, HiStors offer 25% more holding capacity
than standard 5'0" high ModuTanks. 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, PVC and HDPE. 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
