Some technological production processes require the use of vertical steel tanks, which are used for both storage and processing of a wide variety of liquids. They can have an internal volume of 100 to 120 thousand cubic meters (technical parameters are presented on the manufacturer's website following the link of the 7 Mechanical Plant company and installed:
- In the classic ground version.
- On a high platform (like a water tower).
- At a certain depth (buried in the ground).
They have the practical advantage that less space is required for placement, and in some technological processes they are used as ready-made equipment (for example, a sedimentation tank for groundwater, a tank for mixing oil or oil products).
Structural features of a vertical tank
Depending on the customer's requirements, vertical tanks can be of various configurations or devices - cylindrical, isothermal (with double walls or bottom). Manufacturing technology provides 3 ways:
- Roll - roll steel is used for assembly.
- Sheet metal - the structure is assembled from separate metal sheets.
- Mixed (combined) - the walls are mounted from sheet steel, and the bottom and top of the roll.
At the same time, there are differences in the method of joining sheet or rolled metal into a single structure of specified dimensions and technical parameters:
- Classic butt welding of individual parts.
- Step welding.
- Telescopic welding method.
You can get more complete information about the types and technical characteristics of vertical metal containers of various sizes, as well as their purpose, using the official website of the company that manufactures this type of metal structures using its own production facilities. The online catalog of the resource contains both serial samples and models made according to individual orders.
