Horizontal Fiberglass Chemical Tank

Chemical Resistant Horizontal Fiberglass Tank

Product Structure

• Composite Shell: Constructed from high-performance resin and continuous glass fiber filaments for maximum structural integrity.

• Corrosion-Resistant Liner: An internal “rich-resin” layer designed to provide a chemical barrier against aggressive acids, alkalis, or fuels.

• Reinforced Structural Ribs: External circumferential ribs that provide the necessary stiffness to withstand soil loads and vacuum pressure.

• Saddle Support System: Heavy-duty carbon steel or FRP saddles (shown in black) that ensure stable mounting and weight distribution.

• Access Manway & Nozzles: Standardized flanged ports on the top for filling, venting, liquid level sensing, and internal inspection.

• Anti-Floating Anchors: Integrated points for securing the tank to concrete pads, essential for underground installations with high water tables.

Product Advantages

• Total Corrosion Resistance: Unlike steel, FRP is naturally immune to both internal chemical corrosion and external soil-side rust; no specialized coatings or cathodic protection required.

• High Strength & Lightweight: Approximately 1/4 the weight of steel, significantly reducing logistics and installation costs while maintaining high impact resistance.

• Hydraulic Smoothness: The smooth interior surface minimizes friction and prevents the buildup of sludge, scale, or bacterial growth.

• Thermal Insulation: Low thermal conductivity helps maintain a stable internal temperature, reducing the need for external insulation.

• Extended Service Life: Designed for an operational lifespan of 30 to 50 years, even in the most demanding buried or outdoor environments.

Material & Specifications

Technical Parameters

• Working Temperature Range: -40°C to +80°C (High-temperature resins available for up to 120°C).
