Franklin - Model Liquistore -Galvanised Steel and Aluminium Fire Protection Tank
Our Liquistore tank is a proven and durable design, available in a wide range of diameters, heights and capacities, to suit the requirements of your site and project. Liquistore® tanks are available in either a corrosion resistant marine-alloy of aluminium or a high-grade galvanised steel, with a tailor-made internal liner. The aluminium Liquistore® is a cost-effective water storage solution for challenging conditions. For example, on sites in coastal or marine-tropical environments. Liquistore® tanks can also be designed for sites subject to high wind speeds and seismic load conditions.
Ease and speed of assembly.
No sealants are used in the tank shell, which makes installation straightforward and fast. It also results in a more reliable tank. Assembly is normally carried out at ground level using hydraulic jacking equipment and hand tools. Where it is not possible to use hydraulic jacks, assembly can be carried out using conventional methods.
Simplicity of foundations.
The tank can be built on a flat load bearing surface, typically of reinforced concrete. The tank shell is bolted to the foundation. The internal liner has a floor built into it.
Low maintenance & long life.
Tank wall panels are made from aluminium alloy to EN 48S-2 Type EN AW 5083-H22 with aluminium angle strengthening hoops to Grade 6082-T4 at the top and bottom. This provides an effective corrosion resistant tank shell, without the need for additional protective coatings. Stored water is separated from the tank shell by the internal liner, reducing a major cause of corrosion.
