Allied Pumps’ GRP Panel Type Water Storage tanks are manufactured from SMC using the hot pressed metal matched mould method and are engineered to eliminate the need for internal ties and metal supports. The process makes the material immensely strong which will secure a long design life with minimal maintenance.
Our tanks are ideal to keep clean water clean and are used for potable water, drinking water, rain water and industrial water supply which require pure water are required. Our tanks are similar to Fibreglass tanks just much stronger with smooth inner and outer surface, thus no algae and bacterial growth inside the tanks.
KEY FEATURES:
- Can be engineered with no internal tie rods or metal components
- Low thermal conductivity
- A complete package range of tanks and accessories
- NSF International Approval
- Unit sizes from 1m³ – 10,000 m³
- AS 4020:2005 compliance
- Ease of handling, installation and modification
- Smooth mirror surface of the panel prevents dirt adhesion and bacterial growth
- Modular system enabling a tank of any desired size and shape to be constructed
- Light proof to prevent algae growth. Light transmittance for panels including manhole cover is 0%
- Formed from hot pressed GRP
- Tanks are completely sealed, manhole covers and air vents are by design dust and insect proof
- All units offer the option of integral insulation
- No metal components in contact with water. Reinforcement ties, bolts and nuts for assembly are external to the tank
- High volume, long-term storage
- Exclusive base panel design ensures complete free flow drainage; this eliminates residual contaminated water with cleaning
- Easy maintenance
- Exclusive design of convex bottom panels with flexible rubber sealant is most effective against risk of leakage
- Hot pressed sheet mould compound (SMC) at 150ºC and 100kg pressure per cm produce a uniform panel of solid homogenous construction
- Modular panel with low thermal coefficient and flexible rubber sealant ensures a leak free design
- Average serviceable life for panels in normal conditions without special maintenance is 40 years
- Accessible from all sides including bottom for easy visual inspection
- Tested for heavy impact, weather, loads settling and earthquakes
- Repair and maintenance can be done externally without interrupting supply
- Panel strength and design safety factor of 8 x maximum anticipated pressure load. (Compared to 6 x from conventional panel tanks)
- Maintenance limited to outside bolt tension adjustment and internal cleaning
- High panel strength with a glass composition of 40% (compared to 20-30% from conventional panel tanks)
- Exceptional panel strength in compression, tension, torsion (rigidity)
- Excellent ultra violet (UV) resistant characteristics and performance
- Designed and tested to withstand 100 years anticipated natural conditions
