In its relentless pursuit, the research and development department of STRAPLAS SA. It has achieved the ultimate solution to the problems of corrosion damage has cheered many old steel tank facilities. When we say final, we rely on tests conducted long-term aging at home and in the statistical data collected in tanks that are in service.
STRAPLAS S.A. tanks has developed single and double wall underground hydrocarbon storage, gasoline, alcohols, chemicals, etc., plastic reinforced with fiberglass (P.R.F.V.).
The STRAPLAS tanks are being used successfully in all types of industry, particularly in the oil sector and service stations.
Underground tanks double wall STRAPLAS are manufactured to meet the requirements of secondary spill containment. This is achieved by placing an electronic monitoring system to detect lost, that is placed in the air produced in this type of tank.
The detection system losses STRAPLAS selected for their double wall tanks FRP, allows local or remote monitoring of a variety of sensors in security conditions in areas where operations with liquid or gaseous fuels, allowing detection of conditions that can damage the facilities or the environment. Likewise monitor any analog or digital signal you want to incorporate. This device supports up to seven outputs, has a reduced cost of preventive and corrective maintenance integrated devices or components as it acts as a device for data acquisition and real-time centralized control can be wired or wireless, approved by the INTI-CITEI 2005 I 269 according to the standard IRAM-IAP-IEC 79-11 and complies with the decision of the Secretary of Energy No. 173/90.
Reasons of such ecological, have generated control reasons for occasional missed, who for various reasons can occur in a tank and hard to notice his condition buried tank, whereby, development is the double wall tank, whose principle is based on outside tank to contain the losses in the inner tank, while an electronic sensor, located in the annular space between the two tanks, indicated by sound or light signals that can be transmitted to remote, the presence of either liquid, the inner tank or groundwater.
Tanks have various types of accessories that fit the needs of each project.
The most common are the following:
a) Bridas ANSI B16.5 S-150
b) Bridas ASTM 3299
c) Flanged Paso man
d) Cancamo lifting
and) Projections brid. and welded
f) Ladder
g) Manhole
h) Boot
i) Ribbon heating ( Tracing )
j) Thermal Insulation
If other accessories required, Contact our technical department.
Our tanks meet current regulations and have the approval of: Secretary of Energy's Office under the Resolution No. 693/86., and the municipality of the city of Buenos Aires. Also cuentancon approval YPF oil, It, Shell, SITE, Petrobras, Pluspetrol, etc., as hundreds of tanks were installed in service stations and oil fields.
While installing double wall FRP tanks. STRAPLAS, not differ substantially from the steel tank facilities, to make use of the warranty that extends to each tank, must comply with the terms of the NORMA IRAM 13213 or Annex to this purpose UL STANDARD 1316; for unitary or collective installation of tanks in foza. For lifting tanks hooks or shackles that were placed in the eyebolts were employed, tanks located on the spine will, quantity related to the volume / tank length but never less than two. It is very important to strictly comply with the information found on the back of the tank, related test pressures made, the tank venting, respect the suggestion STANDARD installation, not fill the tank with liquid, before filling the pit and roll or throw the tank pit.
Low weight facilitates loading and unloading and location in the pit. Transportation to use, will be therefore, statured. In the management of the tanks were held with lifting slings and tanks for several lingas great lengths were used and these were set in the ears provided for this purpose. Never employ chains, ropes or cables around the tank and not to drop or roll itself.
