Charles Ross & Son Co. has introduced new horizontal storage tanks and pressure vessels, designed for long service life and flexible customization.
Shown is a recently completed 96” OD x 162” straight wall horizontal tank with saddles designed, fabricated and stamped for full vacuum to 60psig at 300F in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Div. 1. Approximate holding volume is 6017 gallons. Interior surfaces of this carbon steel tank were abrasive blasted to SSPC-SP 10 (near white metal) and thoroughly cleaned prior to purging with nitrogen to minimize rusting during shipment. The exterior was blasted, primed and coated with a customer-specified paint. The tank includes lifting lugs, four 2” 3000# couplings with 3000# screwed plugs and a 24” 150# FFSO manway with hinge, gauge and ball valve.
In addition to ASME, other industry code requirements can be met including USFDA, BISSC, ABS, API650, API620 and UL42. Ross has extensive experience fabricating tanks and vessels in carbon steel, stainless steel, Monel, Hastelloy, titanium, Inconel, and aluminum.
