Zincalume Water Tanks: Advanced Specs & Applications

Zincalume water storage tanks are cutting-edge solutions engineered to meet the diverse demands of industrial, commercial, and residential water storage. Manufactured using a unique alloy of zinc, aluminum, and silicon, these tanks offer superior durability, corrosion resistance, and adaptability across various industries.

Technical Specifications of Zincalume Water Tank-

1- Material Composition:

  • Zincalume steel is composed of 55% aluminum, 43.5% zinc, and 1.5% silicon, providing dual protection through barrier and sacrificial mechanisms.
  • Coated with advanced hot-dip metallic layers for enhanced corrosion resistance.

2 -Capacity Range:

  • Available in capacities ranging from 5 KL to 2000 KL, catering to small-scale to large-scale storage needs.

3- Inner Liner:

  • Equipped with food-grade PVC liners, reinforced with high-density polyethylene scrim, ensuring no contact between stored liquids and the steel walls. This prevents contamination and extends the tank’s lifespan.

4- Design Standards:

  • Compliant with industry standards such as AS 2304 for fire protection, AWWA D103 for water storage design, and other relevant structural integrity and safety guidelines.
  • Designed for wind loads up to 150 km/h and seismic loads for Zone V conditions (IS: 1893).

5- pH Compatibility:

  • Suitable for liquids with a pH range of 3 to 12, making it versatile for storing water, chemicals, effluents, and more.

6- Durability:

  • Lifespan of up to 60 years due to exceptional corrosion resistance and robust construction.

7- Tank Orientation & Installation:

  • Available in vertical cylindrical shapes
  • Installation options include:

Ground-level Zincalume water storage tank for industrial applications
Ground-level tanks
Self-elevated Zincalume water storage tank with structural mounting for industrial use
Self-elevated tanks (structural mounting)
Underground Zincalume water storage tank for secure industrial liquid storage
