The storage tanks type “THERMOTANK” are intended for heating and storing of bituminous materials or others high viscosity material. These horizontal tanks are fitted internally with heat transfer oil coils and equipped with an automatic system to manage the product temperature avoiding the risk of overheating and keeping the product always at the set temperature.
The internal heat transfer coils, fabricated from steel tube and tested to 20 bars after welding, run the whole length of the tank in several layers at the very bottom part of it giving this way the maximum heating efficiency and avoiding cracking of bitumen even with minimum amount of product.
At the same time, rock wool insulation enables to reduce at the minimum level the heat loss reducing the heating cost.
The tanks are fitted with analogical thermometer, floating level indicator and hinged water-tight manhole.
In case that Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB) has to be stored, then special stirrers are installed in the tank to ensure the proper agitation of the modified binder.
