Storage Tanks
CUSTOM-LINE FACTORY JACKETED AND
INSULATED STORAGE TANKS
Large volume tanks are designed for storing potable water. Fitting locations
of these custom-line tanks match the needs of normal installations plus those
for the A. O. Smith Cer-Temp® 80 and Shure-Temp™systems.
FEATURES
STANDARD SIZES FROM 140 TO 1,000 GALLONS A. O. Smith stocks vertical
factory jacketed and insulated tanks from 140 gallons up to 1,000 gallons for
fast delivery and retrofit applications. All stock tanks are glasslined with
standard tank openings as shown on following pages. For custom or larger
capacities, see our custom line tanks or consult your factory representatives.
ASME CODE CONSTRUCTION - All tanks are constructed to the requirements of
the ASME. ASME code tanks are available in 100, 125, 150 and 160 psi working pressures
(125 psi working pressure - standard) . Consult factory for ASME code tanks with greater
or lesser working pressures, with special configurations or materials.
INSULATION - Entire tank is surrounded with high density fiber
glass insulation to reduce costly heat loss; non-sagging and
vermin-proof. To meet ASHRAE 90.1 (current edition) depth of
insulation cavity requires use of remote bulb-type tank
temperature control and thermometer. Storage tanks meet
R12.5 minimum thermal insulation requirements of the
U.S. Department of Energy and current edition of
ASHRAE/IESNA 90.1.
CABINET
-Heavy gauge steel with high quality powder coat paint
provides additional insulating qualities for greater energy savings.
LININGS AND COATINGS - Each lining and coating has
particular capabilities and limitations. Please consult the
factory for recommendations on the uses of linings for specific applications.
Thorough investigation on the service life of steel tanks with protective coatings
or linings has led to the recommendations of the following linings:
QGlasslined (Standard) - These are normally stocked tanks for water storage up to 180 F,
with glass lining to prevent corrosion and addition of rust to water. The glass lining was
developed over many years of ceramic research for a wide variety of conditions.
QCement - A special formulation of cement provides excellent corrosion protection. Available
on 200 gallon and larger sizes. A manhole or handhole is included for application of cement lining.
Q
Epoxy - The application of specially formulated epoxy makes this lining suitable for cold or hot
water storage. A manhole or handhole is included for application of epoxy lining. Available on 200
gallon and larger sizes.
CATHODIC PROTECTION - Glasslined, cement and epoxy tanks are furnished with
anodes designed for maximum protection.
ACCESSORIES - Tanks will be supplied with the fittings located
as indicated on the drawings unless specified otherwise. A
manhole or handhole is included on cement or epoxy tanks.
A manhole or handhole is optional on glasslined tanks.
