The epoxy is electro-statically applied and thermally cured in a two-coat process, plus a micron thickness to maintain durability. This process creates a very smooth but hard and robust surface, able to withstand UV light and corrosion.
Additionally, the epoxy panels’ non-corrosive and non-scratch finish is highly durable and easy to work with. Bolts can be inserted without the risk of tearing the tank’s surface and damaging the protective coating.Â
All our glass fused steel panel tanks are installed using tank jacks. This system eliminates the need for working at heights, while speeding up the installation process.
This project was the result of a need to facilitate communication between two pump stations. One was located at Denmark High School; the other at Riverside Club. This project included supply, installation, and commission of control equipment. The objective was to pause the operation of the Riverside Club pump station when one of the pumps at the high school was operating. A dialler system was used to sync these two locations. We delivered the solution to connect these two systems which increased the efficiencies of the solutions.
The Craft Street project involved 8 adjoining lots which required fire protection. To solve this problem, two (2) tanks measuring 5.12 m in diameter by 9.20 m high were assembled onsite and situated next to a fire pumpset in its own custom built enclosure. By collaborating, the owners of the 8 lots were able to share the costs and find a collective solution that worked for them. The short lead time was met and we were able to meet the client expectations in the provided timeframe.
We were recently involved in supplying fire protection for Perth Airport. View the video to see the testing DFES conducted at the facilities in March 2017.
Allied Pumps recently provided 2 Circular Colour Finished Steel Water Storage Tanks to a client near the edge of the water at the Kwinana Bulk Jetty. This area of Cockburn Sound is of significant economic and social importance as it facilitates trade to Western Australia and the nation. It is also subjected to very high winds (almost cyclonic during bad weather events) so special design considerations had to be incorporated into the tank design and construction. The tanks were constructed to 3mm in thickness all over (instead of the normal 3mm on the bottom strake and 1.95mm on the others). The tanks were fitted with harness points on the roof and installed with 2 SWAH doors per tank (normally one). The tanks were also powder coated in colorbond Off White finish to fit in with the surroundings.
The Cockburn Central Police Station required several tank and pump solutions. Initially a galvanised regular tank was recommended. However, there were design issues with the concrete slab. The station requested an in-situ concrete tank liner. The design was changed to meet this need. Allied Pumps was able to provide a turnkey solution for our client on this project, saving the client from having to engage the services of several different sub-contractors to work on various aspects of the tank installation. This enable the client to place a single order with us for all the work on the tank and supply of the pumping systems, enabling him to focus on other aspects of the project. The final project consisted of a panel tank, circulating pump pack, hot water circulator, fire pump and tank liner pack. The result was a seamless integration between the pumps and the tanks, and reliable fire protection has been the overall outcome.
Allied Pumps rises to the challenge. Could we produce 20 relocatable bore head works, which could last for a minimum of 20 years and be compliant with wind loading requirements AS1170.2, for a wind region A4 quickly? Being headquarted in Western Australia, with extensive stock holdings, not only do we understand harsh conditions we were able to gear up quickly and meet the clients deadline.
The Roy Hill railway is a 344km standard gauge, single line, heavy haul railway built to transport 55Mtpa of iron ore from the Roy Hill Mine to the Port stockyard facility, in the Boodarie Industrial Estate south of Port Hedland. This operation uses a lot of diesel and was in need of a large bulk diesel facility to rapidly fuel the trains to meet production and delivery demands. This would allow them to function more efficiently. Nothing of this nature had ever been accomplished. Traditionally fuel facilities have pumps for unloading, loading and other refuelling activities located around the site and are wired back to a Motor Control Centre building. Our solution was to consolidate the pumping, compressed air equipment and Motor Control Centre onto a single super skid. The skid was pre-fabricated, assembled and tested at our facility and lifted into place on site where only a single lift was required. The project was delivered on time and as requested.
Located on Connelly Street at the Greater Sports Ground is the new built recreation & leisure centre incorporating the Kellerberrin & Districts Club. This was the site of the first concrete pump station in Western Australia. When wastewater has to get to the treatment facility and gravity is not cooperating, precast concrete pump stations do the heavy lifting. Precast concrete pump stations are designed, fabricated and installed with the highest-quality materials and equipment. We installed this system in the early 1990s. Completing a project like shows how we adopt innovation in out techniques.
The City of Subiaco had an initiative to improve water quality. The focus was on reducing pollutants in Lake Mabel Talbot. The lake is in the conservation category wetland under the Environment Protection policy and functions as a Water Corporation compensating basin. The lake collects rainfall runoff from four sub-catchments, totaling 300 ha. A Gross Pollutant Trap needed to treat the entire flow prior to entering the system, and our Baffle Box was the only system to appropriately meet the design criteria. The Baffle Box was able to catch leaves and other pollutants before they could enter the lake. The result of this project was cleaner water and an improvement in the water quality.
Mundella was looking to reinvent an industrial filling system and outdated production line. The brief was to provide a food grade, fully compliant solution for the careful transfer of yoghurts and dairy products from vats, while maintaining constant and sensitive flow rates and meeting specific hygiene requirements. We engineered and manufactured an innovative solution to an outdated processing line using a mobile Wilden pumping package. Read on to find out how we achieved this.
