The Direct Deck Skin & pontoon aluminum Internal Floating pontoon Roof is a reliable, efficient, and adaptable. Internal floating cover option which features high‐quality, robust aluminum components.
Both leg-supported and cable‐suspended options are available, as are hybrid aluminum‐stainless steel and all‐stainless steel options. Additionally, the Direct Deck is available in both 500 and 1000 models, depending upon specifications and requirements.
These models Aluminum internal floating roof are based upon the API Standard 650 structural design requirements. With the 1000 featuring additional reinforcement for enhanced structural strength. The Direct Deck can be easily customized as required to meet the most stringent and unique specifications.
The Direct Deck will accommodate a varying range of service conditions, and is equipped with a custom‐designed primary seal (mechanical shoe or wiper). With secondary seal and foam dam options. Designed to operate efficiently in conjunction with the roof to provide a system with the superior flexibility required to handle reasonable operational and dynamic loads and high cycle frequencies.
If the worst happens and a fire breaks out in an aboveground storage tank, this usually occurs in the rim space. DirecTank’s Integrated Rim-Mounted Foam Dams are effective prevention towards to fire spreading. It is compatible to any AST irrelevant of its past fire prevention functionality. The integrated rim-mounted foam dam consists of a foam-filled structure that is attached to the rim of the floating roof. The dam foam filled structure creates a barrier between the floating roof and the tank wall. Preventing the escape of vapors and reducing the risk of liquid spills.
The foam material used in the integrated rim-mounted foam dam is flexible and resilient, allowing it to accommodate large amounts of tank movement. This is important in floating roof tanks, where the floating roof is subject to significant movement due to wind, temperature changes, and other factors.
One of the key advantages of the integral foam dams are its ability to adapt to changes in the tank level. As the tank level changes, the foam-filled structure adjusts to maintain a tight seal between the floating roof and the tank wall.
The integrated rim-mounted foam dam is particularly useful in tanks where there are restrictions on the maximum height of the floating roof, as it can be designed to fit within these restrictions while still providing an effective seal.
Charter’s MaxFlow SS flexible roof drains are an efficient, resilient, reliable, and widely used roof drain product in the AST industry. All MaxFlow SS hoses are specially engineered and manufactured by Charter Industrial roof drain experts with over 30 years of experience.
A flexible roof drain is a type of drainage system designed for efficient water runoff from flat or low-slope roofs. It consists of flexible components that allow for easy installation, maintenance, and adaptation to different roof configurations.
DirecTank has designed and developed its own unique mechanical shoes for internal and external roofs. Based on our extensive experience of the industry. Floating tank roof seals are specialized seals used in storage tanks with floating roofs. These roofs seals are used to minimize the evaporation of volatile petrochemical liquids. Such as oil and gasoline, that are stored in the tanks. The floating roof adjust itself at the surface of the liquid and adjust itself as the liquid level changes. The seal is placed between the floating roof and the tank wall to prevent the escape of vapors. Floating roof seal is designed to withstand the movement and flexing of the floating roof caused by changes in temperature and liquid level, while maintaining a secure sealing metal roof.
Floating Roof Tank Seals are typically made of materials such as rubber, neoprene, or polyurethane, which are resistant to the corrosive effects of the stored liquids. There are several different types of floating roof seals, including rim seals, wiper seals, and mechanical shoe seals.
