They’re available in vertical and horizontal/portable configurations, making them an ideal addition to any ADM plant, or plants from other manufacturers.

Constructed of heavy-duty steel, the tanks offer storage capacities ranging from 10,000 to 35,000 gallons. They’re designed with a serpentine coil arrangement to provide a heat exchange area of more than 1,200 feet, ensuring consistent AC temperatures throughout the tank. Fiberglass blanket insulation combines with a stucco-embossed .016-gauge banded aluminum jacket to protect the tanks and prevent heat loss.

The high-efficiency, hot-oil heater includes a fully jacketed firebox, multi-pass fire-tube heat exchanger and 84-gallon thermal expansion tank. The system also incorporates a 1,000,000-3,000,000 Btu/hr pre-packaged burner assembly. Other standard features include a combustion air fan, fuel oil pump, and No. 2 fuel oil manifold with safety shutoff valves.

A tank-mounted, weatherproof control panel comes standard on both the vertical and horizontal/portable tanks. Features include a main power disconnect, motor start relays, circuit breaker protection, burner controls, automatic temperature controller, high temperature limit, flame signal relay, status indication lights, and alarm circuitry.

The horizontal/portable tanks feature a heavy-duty I-beam structural frame and landing gear with a manual hand crank. Accessories for the portable tanks include leaf spring suspension, air brakes, four radial tires and a gooseneck trailer with a fifth-wheel kingpin hitch. An interconnecting equipment wiring package features quick disconnects on the control cables. The horizontal tanks are also offered as a direct-fired system with a submersible fire-tube heating system. The system includes a pre-packaged burner assembly, combustion air fan, No. 2 fuel oil train, fuel safety manifold and fuel oil pump. For added safety, the 18-inch manhole on both the vertical and horizontal/portable tanks features a bolt-on cover plate.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
