preservatives and glacial acetic acid used for peeling processed fruit. Caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) and caustic potash (potassium hydroxide), along with acids used in many industrial processes, and dairy sanitisers are also compatible with the T14 tanks.
THIELMANN HAS LAUNCHED a new line of portable tanks designed for the safe storage and transport of hazardous goods under pressure. Developed to meet the needs of end users operating in a variety of industries, namely the chemical, oil and gas, and paints and coatings sectors, the portable tanks meet international regulations for the transport by road, rail and sea of dangerous goods that demand a safe and secure environment under pressure.
Designed for the transport of dangerous goods of Classes 3, 4.3, 6.1 and 8 by road, rail and sea, the tanks comply with the requirements of the IMDG Code, RID/ADR, CFR49, Customs Convention-TIR and ISO standards. The full vacuum tanks have a base frame constructed of carbon steel, with four lifting lugs and optional ladder and walkway accessories, and have a maximum allowable working pressure of 4 bar. In additional to enamel paints, car lacquers,
HIGH-PRESSURE TANKS The T22 tanks, also available in volumes of 450 to 2,500 litres, are made of the same highquality stainless steel but are manufactured with a 10 mm shell thickness. They meet international transport codes, including the IMDG Code, ADR, US DOT CFR49, Customs Convention-TIR and ISO standards, for the transport of dangerous goods of Classes 4.2, 5.1, 6.1 and 8 by road, rail and sea. The tanks have a similar design structure to the T14, and a maximum allowable working pressure of 10 bar. This makes them suitable for the storage and transport of substances susceptible to spontaneous combustion, such as copra, yellow or white phosphorous
The new tanks are currently available in two versions: a T14 tank for chemical products with 6 bar test pressure; and a T22 tank with a test pressure of 15 bar. The T14 tanks are made of high-quality stainless steel (316L or 316Ti) with 6 mm shell thickness and are available in a range of volumes from 450 to 2,500 litres.
most varnishes, kerosene, methylated spirits and methanol, the tanks can be used to store and transport polyester resin kits, two-pot polyurethanes and their solvents, substances used to produce acetylene gas, some pesticides, sodium cyanide, metal degreasers, copper chrome arsenate mixtures for timber
and unstabilised fishmeal; certain fertilisers such as ammonium nitrate; oxidising agents, including swimming pool treatments (calcium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide); and toxic products such as sodium cyanide used for metal treatment; agricultural insecticides; and chromium salts for electroplating processes.
