Tank Installation

Ground Preparation

Pressure Proof Test

Barracuda-Tank 10000 litres (2640 gal.) filled with 9000 litres (2377 gal.) water. Then we forced 10000 litres of compressed air into the tank!
That inflated the tank dangerously hard. Gently knocking on the side sounded like a hard wood plank.

The test tank contained the pressure without anydamage to the seams or fabric.

BEWARE! 5 metre (16.4ft) head pressure is 7.1 psi. For large structures like these tanks that is a lot of pressure!
The tank and its associated fittings must sustain the pressure.

Good to know:

If you consider an alternative brand flexible tank with lesser structural integrity than Barracuda-Tanks, make sure you read the warranty conditions carefully as you might be claiming on it soon after installation…

Collapsible Water Ballast & Firefighting Tanks

Rolldrum 500

THE EASIEST MINI BULK CARRIER FOR WATER – FIRE FIGHTING FOAM – OIL SPILL WASTE
Two TURTLE-PAC ROLLDRUMS each containing 500 Lt (132 Gall) fit comfortably onto the tray of a 1 Ton Ute with some space left over. ROLLDRUMS
can be filled on the truck and secured using the tough tie-downs incorporated into the design.

• 

  Then at your destination simply roll them off onto soft ground or use an old tyre as a cushion over concrete. ROLLDRUMS can then be rolled to where they are needed as the have an anti abrasion cover which protects the tank body. Each ROLLDRUM is fitted with one 38mm (1.5″) filler/outlet. Empty tanks take up hardly any space and leave the vehicle’s cargo area free to carry other goods NOT empty rigid containers. A full ROLLDRUM will also fit onto a pallet for loading by forklift.

• 

  Fourteen (14) full ROLLDRUM 500’s will fit into a 20 foot shipping container. ROLLDRUMS can be floated and towed on water providing an airspace is left for buoyancy. Resupply remote islands or beaches.

• 

  Optional anti-surge harness used only if the tank is partially full.
