SAFETY CHECKLIST Confirm chemical compatibility of product being stored with that of the polyethylene tank and fittings. Tanks are to be used at atmospheric pressure only. Make sure tanks are vented as required to prevent pressure or vacuum from developing. Prevent excessive heat near or inside the tank. Polyethylene tanks are designed for a maximum continuous temperature of 70° F.* Have and use Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for the product being stored. Regard tanks as confined spaces.Follow proper entry procedures. Do not stand on tank domes as the surface is flexible and slippery. Do not move tanks while holding liquid and never allow personnel under a tank when it is being lifted! INSTALLATION CHECKLIST Locate the tank wisely. Protect personnel from chemical danger in the event of a leak and protect the tank from traffic damage and excessive heat. Tanks are designed for above ground use only. Utilize adequate secondary containment according to particular chemical danger and governmental and industry requirements. Fully support the entire bottom of the tank on a clean, smooth concrete foundation. Failure to provide proper foundation and support constitutes a misuse of the tank and will void your warranty. Fill the usable capacity of the tank with water and hydro test up to a minimum of 5 hours after installation and before product is introduced to ensure tank and fitting integrity. Install labels for chemical warning that complies with all local, federal and OSHA requirements. OPERATING PARAMETERS Temperature - Tank specific gravity ratings based on product temperature of 70° F. Pressure - Atmospheric pressure must be maintained in tank at all times; vacuum must = 0. Make sure tank is properly vented for the type of material and flow rates expected. Plumbing - Flexible connections REQUIRED to preserve warranty. MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES Tanks should be inspected on a routine basis. Clean the exterior and interior of the tank.You cannot properly inspect a dirty tank. Inspect the exterior and the interior of the tank for cracking and brittle appearance. Pay particular attention to areas around fittings and where different planes of the tank radius into one another. A bright light source should be used to inspect the interior from the man way opening to avoid a confined space entry. Inspect fittings and exterior gaskets for leaks and signs of general corrosion and deterioration. * EXTREME CAUTION: Consult Customer Service on any applications where continuous use is above 70° F. DISCLAIMER: Gallonage/size disclaimer volume and unit measurements are subject to variances due to thermal expansion, contraction and general molding tolerances.
