Sectional water tanks are manufactured from Glass Reinforced Plastics, combined with a special composite produced in-house, known as Sheet Metal Compound (SMC). We manufacture both metric panels and imperial panels and both are available in half panel increments, which is beneficial in areas of restrictive access. Sectional tanks are delivered in panels and are assembled on site by fully trained and experienced crews.
Panel sizes and range
Tank panels are available in metric and imperial sizes. There are no restrictions to the length and width available. Metric tanks are available to a height of 3m and the imperial panels to a height of 2.44m.
Metric sizes are:
1m x 1m, 1m x 0.5m and 0.5m x 0.5m
Imperial sizes are:
1.22m x 1.22m (4' x 4'), 1.22m x 0.61m (4' x 2') and 0.61m x 0.61m (2' x 2')
Our trained technical staff are here to help and advise you, to ensure you achieve the most economical solution on all of your water storage requirements.
Light Cover: • Suitable for indoor use only • Storage of foul water
Heavy Cover: • Suitable for indoor and outdoor use • Storage of foul water • Cover is manufactured using the same material used in the side and base panels
Format 30: • Suitable for indoor and outdoor use • Storage of drinking water • Insulated to water council specification Format 30
Our standard tanks are manufactured using internally flanged base and externally flanged sides, and all underwater stays and bolts are stainless steel. Depending on each project requirement, the following optional extras are available:
Stainless Steel Bolts: Tanks may be manufactured with stainless steel bolts underwater or throughout the tank. Where stainless steel bolts are used underwater, galvanised bolts are used on the external flanges of the tank.
Dividers: Dividers are used in a situation where constant supply of water is required. One compartment may be drained down for maintenance without interrupting water supply in the second compartment.
Condensation Tray: Used to hold condensation from pipe work or tank that could cause damage or render floors wet or slippery.
Ball Valve Housings: A ball valve housing, enables the control mechanism in the tank to be fitted at a higher level thus increasing the capacity of water in the tank. They are useful in sites where height restrictions apply.
Ladders: Ladders should be specified where the height of the tank is greater than 1.5m. External ladders are available with safety rings.
Reverse Base (externally flanged base): Externally flanged base, allows for the tank to be fully drained down and also allow access to all the bolts on the tank. Where an externally flanged base is used, 650mm clearance is required underneath the tank to assemble and gain access to the bolts.
TIF Tanks (Totally Internally flanged): TIF tanks are suitable where room space allocated it restricted. Bolts are located on the inside of the tank, therefore will require less working space around the tank.
Weir: Construction of one or more panels that divides the tank, approx. half the height of the tank, which allows the water to spill over the top of the weir.
Baffle: Construction of one or more panels within a tank which, partially subdivides the tank in order to increase the length of the flow-path between the inlet and the outlet from the tank.
