Bolted Panel Water Tanks
Bolted Panel Water Tanks consist of factory-manufactured steel panels that are assembled on-site using precision bolted connections and advanced sealing systems. Each panel is designed for exact fitment, using lap joint techniques or tapered edge methods, resulting in a leak-proof vertical cylinder that can be customized in diameter, height, and volume to suit specific requirements.
Center Enamel utilizes Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) and galvanized panels, ensuring unparalleled durability, corrosion resistance, and hygienic water storage. This construction allows rapid installation, simplified logistics, and future scalability—all without the need for extensive welding or heavy on-site modification.
Engineering and Technical Features· Modular Factory-Made Panels : All panels are precision-engineered and factory-coated, ensuring consistent quality and eliminating the risks of onsite fabrication errors.
· Corrosion Protection: Panels employ advanced glass fusion, epoxy, or galvanizing processes. The result is industry-leading corrosion resistance, suitable for potable water, wastewater, fire water, and aggressive industrial liquids.
· Integrated Sealing System: High-performance EPDM or silicone gaskets paired with industry-grade sealants guarantee long-term leak-proof performance, even under fluctuating temperatures and pressures.
· Variety of Roof and Floor Options: Flat, conical, geodesic dome, and low-profile roof solutions meet various architectural and functional needs. Floors include steel, concrete, or embedded ring anchoring for earthquake and wind stability.
· Compliance: Tanks meet international standards such as AWWA D103, NFPA22, FM Global, NSF/ANSI, and ISO 28765, ensuring suitability for regulated and mission-critical applications.
· Custom Accessories: Platforms, ladders, insulation packages, hatches, and monitoring devices are available for full operational control.
Advantages of Center Enamel Bolted Panel Water Tanks· Rapid Installation : Modular panels arrive ready for assembly; installation is far faster compared to welded or concrete tanks, reducing costs and minimizing onsite disruption.
· Flexibility and Customization: Tanks can be designed for capacities from a few cubic meters to well over 100,000 cubic meters, in diameters up to 95 meters. Shapes and accessories can be tailored to fit site conditions and project demands.
· Long-Term Durability: Glass-fused steel, zinc-aluminum alloys, and stainless steel options ensure lifespans exceeding 30 years, with little risk of rust or degradation.
· Ease of Maintenance and Repair: Individual panels can be replaced without dismantling the entire structure. Smooth, non-porous surfaces make cleaning easy and periodic inspection straightforward.
· Superior Hygiene: Non-absorbent coatings prevent bacterial growth and water contamination—critical for potable water or sensitive industry applications.
· Cost Efficiency: Lower labor, shorter project timelines, and reduced maintenance outlay make bolted tanks highly economical over their service life.
· Environmental Sustainability: Panels are recyclable, modular design minimizes construction waste, and energy-efficient coatings lower operational impact.
Center Enamel Bolted Panel Water Tanks serve a wide spectrum of uses:· Drinking Water
: Meet stringent hygiene and water safety regulations for municipal and residential supply systems.
· Fire Protection: Provide critical emergency backup for industrial, commercial, and municipal fire suppression systems.
[· Irrigation and Agricultural Use : Store freshwater or treated effluent for crop production, livestock, and greenhouse operations.
· Industrial Process Water: Support manufacturing by holding process water, cooling water, or liquid chemicals in harsh industrial settings.
· Wastewater Treatment: Used for equalization, aeration, and treated effluent storage with reliable corrosion protection.
· Desalination Brine and Mineral Storage: Store high-salinity or mineral-laden water in specialist GFS alloy tanks, ensuring stability and long-term performance.
Center Enamel’s production integrates:· Raw Material Selection
: High-quality steel is sourced for maximum strength and chemical compatibility.
· Glass Fusion, Galvanizing, or Epoxy Coating: Panels undergo thermal processing for glass fusion or hot dip for galvanizing, creating inert, corrosion-resistant barriers.
· Precision Panel Forming: CNC machinery shapes panels for strict dimensional accuracy, ensuring seamless onsite assembly.
· Rigorous Quality Assurance: Each panel and connection undergoes fastener torque checks, gasket alignment, and hydrostatic leak testing before delivery.
· Custom Packing and Logistics: Modules are packed and shipped for global delivery, with installation guides and onsite technical support.
Installation and Commissioning· Site Preparation : Foundations are laid (steel, concrete, or embedded ring), tailored to load and environmental factors.
: Factory-manufactured panels are manually erected and bolted, ensuring quick construction and adaptability even in remote locations.
· Sealing and Inspection: Each connection is sealed and pressure-tested; final quality checks ensure readiness for water filling.
Maintenance and Lifecycle Bolted Panel Water Tanks from Center Enamel require minimal ongoing maintenance:· Routine Visual Inspection
: Check panels, fasteners, and gaskets for integrity; replace any worn components as needed.
· Periodic Cleaning: Glass-fused and stainless tanks need only infrequent cleaning because their smooth surfaces resist scale and biofilm.
· Gasket and Seal Checks: Ensures lasting water-tightness, especially after harsh weather events.
· Longevity: Average design lives exceed three decades, with documented tanks in continuous operation for 30+ years worldwide.
Safety, Standards, and Certifications· International Standards : Center Enamel tanks comply with AWWA D103, NFPA22, FM, ISO, WRAS, and other global benchmarks.
· Health and Water Quality: NSF/ANSI 61, WRAS and other certifications guarantee safe, non-toxic storage for potable water.
· Fire and Disaster Readiness: Tanks meet emergency storage standards for fire suppression, disaster relief, and civil defense uses.
Environmental Benefits· Reduced Waste : Modular construction encourages repair and expansion, reducing the need to replace entire structures.
· Energy-Efficient Logistics: Lightweight panels and fast assembly minimize resource use and carbon footprint.
· Sustainable Materials: Steel, glass, and coatings are recyclable at end-of-life and contribute to green building standards.
