Australian Fuelling Systems & Equipment

Self-bunded tanks

Self-bunded tanks have many environmental and economic advantages over standard conventional single-skin tanks - including:

• Minimises onsite work - pump is installed & ready to use, no civil or earthworks required for bunding & minimal capital expended on the site.
• System is easily transportable for re-installation elsewhere when required.

Available in capacities from 1500 litres up to 53,000 litres, these tanks can be supplied for diesel, ULP and aviation fuel storage. Our design incorporates a secure, lockable enclosure at the end of the tank with a large reservoir for spill containment. This secure enclosure is normally used to house all of the dispensing equipment - pump, reel, flowmeter, filter etc.

Aviation fuel tanks

We have a comprehensive range of tanks which incorporate the many special requirements for this application. Available in various self-bunded versions, standard onground as well as mobile versions for trailer and truck mounting. These tanks are available, depending on capacity, in rectangular, cylindrical and elliptical form. The low-profile elliptical tanks have special application in being able to be gravity filled from large delivery tankers. A variety materials can be used for construction - these include aluminium, epoxy lined mild steel and stainless steel.

Options for tanks

Tanks can be fitted or adapted to your specific requirements - these need to be detailed so that a quotation for the modified tank can be given. These include:

Man access hatches & equipment Pressure & vacuum vents Additional or special fill or discharge ports Bottom or top fill systems Provision for overfill protection High & low level float switch installation Multiple compartments Special lift lugs or mounting points Mountings for pumps or other equipment Special finish painting material or colour Internal sandblast & epoxy lining Non-standard materials of construction eg 316 or 304 stainless steel

Mobile tanks

We build a range of truck mounted tanks for transport of diesel fuel only. These do not have Dangerous Goods Approvals and are not for use with any Class 3 Flammable Liquids.
These tanks are designed to be permanently mounted direct to the chassis rails or by provision of a mounting sub-frame can be demountable to allow use of the truck tabletop.
Can be equipped for bottom or top filling (or both) and with whatever outlets, compartments,hatches etc that are required.

Mobile tanks for class 3 Flammable Liquids

To be used on public roads, any tank for transporting Class 3 Flammable Liquids (ULP, Jet-A1, AvGas etc needs to have design approvals and a relevant Dangerous Goods Approval number. There are also stringent requirements required in the overall system, including the vehicle (see section on tankers) An exception to the above is the range of tanks which are built to the special AAAA-1 specifications for use on a support vehicle for aerial agricultural operations.
