Chamber Box (Optional):

Float valve chambers shall be provided with central hinged lockable ABS lid with options of 1m x 1m with options for depth as 180mm, 300mm or 500mm having provision for type A air gap in compliance with BS6281: Part 1:1992

Partition Reinforcement

It is possible to eliminate unusable space, utilize the maximum space by installing a partition type tank Economical and effective maintenance.

Features :

  • Utilizing maximum in the basement or other confined areas, it is possible to eliminate unusable capacity space and utilize the maximum space, by installing a partition type tank.
  • If partition type tanks are installed, one section can be used for various uses water and the other section for service water (firefighting etc.)
  • Easy Maintenance It is convenient for maintenance, because two tanks can be installed as one unit. Cost effectiveness the cost and installation of 1 partition tank is cheaper than 2 separate tanks.

Internal Compartment System :

If tanks for two different uses are needed in a confined area or boiler room, a 16 ton partition type tank can be installed to use half for drinking water, and half for service water. If separate tanks are installed, however, you have to install two tanks with a maximum of 6 tons, because you need to have 1 meter distance between tanks for maintenance and operating space.

  • Utilizing maximum capacity
    In the basement or other confirmed areas, it is possible to eliminate unusable space, and utilize themaximum space, by installing a partition type tank.
  • Various uses
    In partition type tank are installed, one section can be used for drinking water, and the other section for service water, (fire water tank)
  • Easy maintenance
    It is convenient for maintenance, because two tanks can be installed as one unit.
  • Cost effectiveness
    The cost and installation of 1 partition tank is cheaper 2 separate tank.

Reinforcement & Design

Internal Reinforcement System

The excellent strength, durability and water tightness of the MULTANK are obtained by connecting inner panels with stainless steel braces & tie-rods are installed inside of the tank to improve the strength and stability of the tank structure. Corrosionproof PE heat treated stainless steel tie-rods and GRP tie - rods are applied.

External Reinforcement System

MULTANK exterior reinforcement system refers to a system that has been designed to withstand stress that occurs due to the hydraulic pressure exerted on the outer part of the tank.
