At Mass Tank, our expert team is dedicated to providing tailored solutions for our customers. We use our expertise to ensure every tank we design meets stringent industry regulations, including the unique demands of ASME pressure vessels and aboveground storage tanks.
Types of Aboveground Tanks
UL 2085 Fireguard® Tanks
UL 2085 Fireguard® Tanks offer exceptional thermal protection and fire resistance. Lightweight concrete insulation allows the tank to withstand extreme fire conditions while maintaining the integrity of stored contents.
These tanks offer a high level of safety and dependability, effectively resisting ballistic threats and other physical hazards. They have been tested to handle exposure to extreme temperatures (exceeding 2,000 ºF) for extended periods, making them an optimal choice for warehouses storing hazardous waste materials or other industrial storage applications with potential fire hazards.
UL 142 Flameshield® Tanks
These tanks provide a reliable solution for industries that require safe storage of a flammable product. The double-wall steel construction of UL 142 Flameshield® Tanks offers robust storage (holding up to 70,000 gallons of fluid at a time) while preventing leakage. These are designed to handle the different chemical properties of flammable liquids such as:
- Biofuels
- Ethanol
- Gasoline
Our UL 142 Double Bulkhead Tank features a unique compartmentalized design to reduce the risk of cross-contamination when storing several different liquids in one tank. It is certified to meet strict safety standards, which is critical in applications such as industrial processing and fuel distribution.
Single Wall Fuel Tanks
Mass Tank builds single wall stainless steel and carbon fuel tanks with storage capacities of up to 250,000 gallons. They are available in rectangular or cylindrical designs for vertical or horizontal installation.
Customers can choose single or double bulkheads with multiple compartments. Customization includes a saddle or skid configuration to meet specific operational requirements.
Single wall fuel tanks meet or exceed UL 142 specifications, as well as NFPA-30/31A requirements. Depending on the customer’s requirements, we can construct these tanks to meet NYC standards. These tanks do not adhere to the UL 2085 standards, as these only apply to double-walled tank designs.
Aboveground Water Tanks
Mass Tank’s aboveground water storage systems come with multiple interior material and lining options. We can construct high-performance aboveground water tanks to meet the demands of applications such as:
- Fire suppression
- Potable water storage
- Non-potable water storage
- Wastewater management
Our aboveground tank designs comply with all required health and safety regulations. They are also suited for process water and cooling water storage, with corrosion-resistant material options that can extend the tank’s service life.
Mass Tank builds all our water tanks to meet specific industry standards and requirements for potable water applications, including NSF/ANSI certifications.
AMSE Pressure Vessels
Mass Tank manufactures ASME pressure vessels for water storage, chemical processing, and other industrial applications. These tanks can handle pressures exceeding 15 psi, making them an ideal solution for industries requiring secure containment of volatile substances and reactive agents.
Our ASME pressure vessels offer the highest levels of safety and performance, complying with Section I and Section VIII Div. 1 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. They can be custom-built to meet the specific material and size requirements of a given application, with custom lining options for superior chemical resistance.
