FIREGUARD ®

FIRE-RATED ABOVE GROUND TANKS

WHY CHOOSE TRUENORTH STEEL’S UL 2085 FIREGUARD ?®

• SUSTAINABLE: Insulates product from ambient temperature variations, reducing environmental emissions

• TESTABLE: Primary and secondary tank can be tightness-tested on-site with standard testing procedures, unlike other designs

• COMPATIBLE: Primary storage tank and secondary containment compatible with a wide range of fuels and chemicals, including biodiesel and ethanol

Fireguard double-wall, fire-protected aboveground storage tanks feature an inner and outer steel tank with a unique, lightweight thermal insulation material that exceeds the UL 2-hour fire test.

• COST-EFFECTIVE: Steel outer wall provides low-cost maintenance and protection from weathering

• SUPPORTIVE: Support designs available for all seismic requirements

• MONITORABLE: Interstitial space can be monitored for leak detection

• DURABLE: Meets temperature requirements when the furnace test was extended to 4 hours

standards

Control testing requirements for air emissions

• Steel Tank Institute (STI) Standard F941 for protected above ground storage tanks

a strict third-party quality control inspection program

If your project is required to follow NFPA 30 or 30A guidelines, check with your “Authority Having Jurisdiction” related to maximum allowable tank capacity for the class fuel being stored and secondary containment requirements.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES:

THE ONLY TANK THAT MEETS ALL OF THESE STANDARDS

Unlike other manufacturers, TrueNorth Steel can supply accessories including FE Petro submersible pumps, dispenser platforms, overfill prevention valves and fill piping, fillboxes, OSHA ladders, stairs, walkways, and handrails.

LIGHTWEIGHT THERMAL INSULATION

• Unique feature that helped Fireguard exceed the UL 2-hour fire test

• Sufficiently porous to facilitate quick emergency venting and/or leak detection

STEEL PRIMARY TANK

STEEL SECONDARY TANK

• Built to UL 2085 standards

CONCRETE-ENCASEDvs.

Fireguard® is available from an extensive group of Steel Tank Institute fabricators who participate in the STI Quality Assurance Program. Under the program, independent quality control inspectors make unannounced visits to STI members, ensuring fabrication to the highest possible standards.

FIREGUARD

• Secondary containment is testable on-site using standard, economical testing procedures

• Impermeable, crack-resistant steel outer tank, which encloses the concrete-encased primary tank

• Steel secondary containment provides added strength and security, and is easily recycled

• Lightweight monolithic thermal insulation material Fireguard uses is a specialized concrete, part of a patented process resulting in a lighter-weight material than concrete alone

• Both primary and secondary tanks are fitted with emergency vents that will open in an emergency at a minimum pressure of 2.1 psi

• Secondary containment on certain designs may require elaborate and expensive procedures to be tested on-site

• Exposed concrete outer wall is susceptible to cracking, spalling, and weathering – expensive problems not typically covered by warranty

• Polyethylene sheeting depends on concrete for strength and takes years to decompose

• An average 12,000 gallon concrete-encased tank weighs approximately 100,000 pounds, increasing costs in transport-ing and future relocating

• Primary tank is fitted with an emergency vent, but secondary encasement is designed to fail in an emergency
