Model
301-B:
For
use in vertical, above ground fuel tanks for airport and
marine bulk storage terminals. Tanks can be used sooner
after delivery. Setting time can be greatly reduced. The
unit is usually installed in new tanks but can also be
added to existing tanks. |
Model
301-B-AR:
The
articulated floating suction is designed for use in a
vertical tank in which the tank diameter is too small
to allow a single arm unit to reach the top of the product.
Articulated multi-arm floating suctions are available
on special design. |
|
Important
Note:
It
is recommended that tanks equipped with floating suctions have
provision and procedures for systematic draining of tank bottoms
(water) same as tanks without floating suctions. |
