MANUFACTURING SPECIFICATIONS

Manufacturing Specification for Double Wall Diesel Truck Mounted Tanks

PART 1.0

SCOPE

Furnish (5EA) 10 carbon steel or equivalent, double wall storage tanks UL approved or equal, in accordance with the definitions given. The tanks shall be manufactured by typical process for any diesel fuel. Tank capacity & description shall be listed within this specification.

PART 2.0

MATERIALS

2.1 Carbon Steel or equivalent

The tanks shall be manufactured with material used for normal manufacturing of storage tanks or approved equal. All color and paint pigments may be as desired by the customer or as designated by the tank manufacturer, to include exposure to sunlight and diesel fuel without failure. The tank manufacturer may not supply a copy of the mechanical property table as used to manufacture the specified tank, but materials similar to Underwriters Laboratories UL 142 is requested.

PART 3.0

TANK CONSTRUCTION

3.1 Design Parameters

The tanks shall be designed to withstand stress value to hold no greater than 110 gallons when mounted in truck box or on a flat bed, with an adequate safety factor. Tanks will have uniform wall thickness of metal throughout the entire internal surface area of vessel. Underwriters Laboratories UL 142 certification is not required, but should be similar in construction.

3.2 Appearance

The finished surface shall be as free as practical from visual defects such as foreign inclusions; air bubbles, pinholes, and craters. All welds and edges where openings are cut into the tanks shall be trimmed smooth enough to not cut or puncture human skin.

3.3 Dimensions and Tolerances

The tank dimensions shall be measured externally. The tolerance on the outside length shall be plus or minus 3% on the long edge. The square end tolerances can be as much as 10%, with a preference to be as close as possible. The measurements shall be in the horizontal position. All tanks shall have a minimum 90 gallons and maximum of 110 gallons. Internal tank dimensions shall be up to manufacturer as long as double wall tank specifications are met. See attached sheet for exterior dimensions- (5 tanks 84” long by 18“square, 5 tanks 42” long by 24 “square)

PART 4.0

DESCRIPTION OF VESSEL

4.1 Tank Design

The design of the vessel shall be flat bottom, closed top, and seamless in construction. The top of the outer (Secondary) tank shall include two female 2” NPT openings to the inner tank, centered on the narrow dimension but each one approximately six inches from the tank ends. One opening is to be used for fill and vent access accommodating 2" Male Vented Locking Fill Cap provided by the manufacturer.

(2” Triplex Vent) Part Number: 0037-02-2030 The second female two inch NPT opening is to be utilized by customer for the pump assembly (customer furnished pump). The internal tank shall have a one half inch or three quarter inch NPT drain bung welded so that the internal tank (primary) can be drained to within one inch of the bottom of the tank. The plug will be provided by the customer. The dimensions of the primary tank and secondary tank shall be designed to allow for inspection of leakage of the internal tank. This can be a bung welded to the outer tank in either of two positions. On the lower edge the same side as the drain opening, or on the top in any convenient location to accommodate a dip stick to verify internal tank integrity. The outer tank shall provide a weather shield for the inner tank, restricting the elements from entering and a flush mount drain to purge any condensation. Tank(s) shall withstand an air pressure test of 3 - 5 psi.

The outer tank shall be flat bottom in construction and shall have a minimum of two angles welded on the bottom sidewall that extend lengthwise (longest dimension) providing a means to mount the tank. The angles shall also provide an area for the placement of bottom discharge fittings. The angles shall also provide stability and reinforcement for the outer tank for installations that require frame restraint system. No provision for lifting devices for tank placement is necessary except for the angles on the bottom edge. Angle iron welded on mounts shall be of thickness to support fully loaded tank at 3 G’s.

The inner and outer tanks shall be fastened together with permanent welds for handling and movement after mounting. The inner and outer tanks shall be separated enough to allow free flow of fluid in case of inner (primary) tank failure.

Wall thickness for both primary and secondary vessels will be uniform throughout. Leak testing and structure integrity shall be the responsibility of the manufacture. Thickness of material will be consistent throughout. Tank shall not be designed to support any accessory equipment except the fuel pump when installed according to manufacturer's instructions and limitations. Tank(s) shall be capable of storing diesel fuel only at ambient temperature, not to exceed 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Internal baffles shall be provided when span exceeds 36 inches of length(two baffles in a 84 inch span, one baffle in a 42 inch span). Baffles shall have a minimum internal one inch top and bottom openings acrross the width.

Part 5.0

Accessories

5.1 Side Wall Fittings

Fitting shall pass through the sidewall of both the primary and secondary tank on the flats provided by the secondary tank. 1 each ¾ or ½ fitting shall pass through the sidewall of the primary and the secondary tank. The fitting shall be a metallic NPT fitting. The metallic fitting shall be constructed out of material compatible with the tank contents consistent with the rest of the tank material. All mounting material shall be compatible with the tank contents and construction material. The sidewall fittings shall be constructed in a manner as not to expose cross sections of walls and to prevent leakage between the two tanks. Fittings shall be located on the same lower sidewall of the storage tank. Tank shall be shipped with vent and fill cap only and tank openings taped or sealed, no discharge nozzle or pump included. No additional fitting installation will be required. Anchor bolts supplied by the customer.

Underwriters Laboratories UL 142 does not apply but similar manufacturing techniques are requested.

5.2 Dome Fittings Not required. Only lockable Vent/ Fill cap assembly. 2” Triplex Vent 5.3 Manway Covers

Not Required

5.4 Vents

The vent size shall be integral with the lockable Vent/ Fill cap assembly. 2” Triplex Vent

Part Number: 0037-02-2030

5.5 Ladders (optional)

NA

5.6 Name Plates

Not Required 5.8 Inspection and Test Procedures Testing shall be done on all tanks to ensure a leak proof seal on all installed fittings and welds. No impact tests required. Tank capacity must be between 90 and 110 gallons measured and documented upon delivery. Tank must be able to mount in the bed of F450 box and flat bed with installed angle mounts accommodating the frame width (mount bolts supplied by the customer).

5.9 Interstitial Leak Detection System

Each tank shall be installed with a leak detection system to detect liquids within the interstitial space between the primary and secondary tank. Leak detection shall be physical/visual only.

Visual indication and drain may be collocated for the external tank and in the same area as the internal drain. The individual drains may not be on opposite sides or the ends.
