. CONSTRUCTION FEATURES and CHARACTERISTICS
Heavy Gauge Steel - 7-gauge steel for the top and side channels. Standard 12-
gauge for bottom, ends, and internal baffles; however, optionally, 7-gauge may
be specified throughout. Also, stainless steel is a great solution for a corrosive
environment problem.
Internal Structural Baffles - located every mounting point and no more than 24
inches apart. These baffles contribute to the overall strength of the tank but allow
free flow of fuel.
Hot/Cold Baffles - this baffle is located between the engine-supply and the fuel
return ports. Its purpose is to separate the hotter returned fuel from the cooler
supply fuel thus improving engine performance.
Drain - 3/8” in tanks up to 200 gallons and 1” in 200+ gallon tanks. Double wall
tanks have a drain for both containment areas — the inner tank drain is “hard-
plumbed” through the outer area.
Connections - (1 ea.) 1½” for fuel level gauge; (2 ea.) 2” NPT for lockable fill cap
and for vent; (2 ea.) ½” for engine suction and for engine return; and (1 ea.) extra
1” opening for option, etc. Note these connections are located on either or both
side(s) depending upon gen-set and your specifications.
Welded by Certified Welders and Supervisor tested to 5psi.
Finish - Primer and choice of industrial color enamel.
