Description
“SQUATTERS” TYPE PRE-FABRICATED WATER STORAGE TANKS
Squatter Tanks (Southern Cross)
The wide range of tank capacities available and the choice of high or low profile design allows simple specification of a tank, or tanks, to suit particular space, location and application requirements.
Applications
Southern Cross pre-fabricated tanks (Squatters Tanks) provide a safe-economical water storage solution for Industry, Fire Services, Potable Supplies, Mining, Elevated Storage and Air Conditioning
Features
- Ground level tanks available up to 25.4 m diameter and up to 7.2 m in height, and depending upon wind and seismic loading conditions, certain (limited) tank capacities may be able to elevated up to 30 m high
- Completely pre-fabricated for easy transportation to site and simple on-site assembly
- Bolt-together “stripseal” design
- TANK BOTTOM: 1.6mm galvanised steel sheets with bolted, lapped joints and special rubber seals
- TANK SIDES: Hot dip galvanised mild steel ring and batten framework supporting 1.6 mm thick, bolted, lapped and rubber strip sealed sheets
- FLAT TOPS: Available for all tank sizes and constructed of galvanised steel decking material mounted on galvanised steel framing supported by pipe posts.
- CONICAL TOPS: Available for all tank sizes. Finished with galvanised mild steel flat sheeting supported by galvanised steel framework and posts.
- Australian designed and manufactured
- Storage capacities from 9 to 3040 kilolitres in a range of heights and diameters
- Rugged, all galvanised steel construction to suit all conditions
- ISO 9001 quality assured
- Complies with relevant Codes under Australian Standards
- Fittings to reduce vortex formation when water is being pumped out of tank enabling the bottom water level to be lower, increasing the usable capacity of the tank
