Mountain East Fiberglass Company Glass Fibre Tank Installation Guide
A fiberglass tank is a type of tank that is widely used in the construction industry to store various materials. In addition, it is also widely used in various industrial projects. Compared with traditional steel tanks, it has many advantages, such as light weight, high strength, easy installation and so on. Therefore, it is getting more and more popular. In order to ensure the quality of installation, below is the installation guide of fiberglass tank.
Installation Requirements
Before installation, the installation environment must be carefully checked, and the installation of the fiberglass tank must comply with the following requirements:
- The installation site should be a solid foundation, with a flat and stable surface.
- The surrounding environment of the installation site is clean and free of debris to prevent direct sunlight from hitting the resin surface, or causing the fiberglass tank to deform.
- The installation environment should have good ventilation to ensure that the tank does not suffer from mold or condensation.
Installation Process
The installation task of the fiberglass tank can be performed by a well-trained and experienced installation team. The specific installation process is as follows:
- The foundation should be built in advance, and the position of the anchor bolt should be marked, which should be consistent with the installation position of the tank flange.
- When the foundation is solid, the tank should be transported to the installation site. Pay attention to the use of lifting equipment, and avoid collision and serious bending deformation due to deformation of the pressure vessel.
- Check the upper reinforcement, outer circumference, and fittings of the tank for any damage or external leakage. If there is a problem, it must be repaired before installation.
- When the tank is properly placed on the foundation, adjust the level of the tank as appropriate. Then, use the wire rope to lift the tank flange, and place the gasket between the flange and the foundation. Tighten the nuts and bolts to secure the flange to the foundation plate.
- Check the tightness of the flange bolts and washers, and make sure that the bolts of the entire flange are tightened evenly.
- After the installation is completed, tighten the nuts and bolts of the flange again. Then, perform hydraulic testing to verify the tightness of the tank.
