Glass Fused Steel Tank (GFS Tank)
Glass Fused Steel Tank (GFS Tank) Description
A layer of Glass is Fused into Steel tank panels which are lined inside and outside with glass enamel. The enamel is a solid, smooth, and shiny cover of silicate, fused to steel tank panels in a special furnace with temperatures ranging from 780 to 900 degrees Celsius. The steel panels that form the shell of the tanks become highly durable after they are processed with the infusion of glass coats on both the inner and outer layers of the panels. The sheets are later attached with special high-grade bolts and sealed by constantly flexible silicones (sealants).
Even the installation materials and shell accessories are processed thoroughly with surface treatment. These glass fused steel tanks are best for the storage of fluids of any nature or even solid materials. The specialty/USP of these tanks is that they are FM Global approved & are majorly being utilized as an industrial water storage tank. The GFS/GLS tanks are also a primary requirement that needs to be installed at premises dealing in environmental technology facilities like Waste Water Treatment, Fire fighting Water storage, and Anaerobic Digester Tank.
