Excise tanks. Tanks with GUM type approval. Designs as storage and process vessels.
General information
Technological tanks, above ground, with type approval by the Central Office of Measures, meeting the requirements set out in the regulation of the Minister of Economy, Labour and Social Policy of 22 January 2008 on the metrological requirements to be met by measuring tanks. Some types of tanks - built before 2008 - meet only the older regulation from 2004.
Tanks made as single shell. When used as a storage tank for hazardous liquids (spirits), the ambient requirements specified in the regulation for the storage of flammable liquids must be met.
Capacitance measurement method used: tube liquid indicator with metal aperture.
Some tanks, of which we have the type designation, can be fitted with a high-speed side agitator with mechanical sealing.
The purpose of the tank: to carry out processing or storage of excisable agents.
The range of tanks with a GUM type designation is constantly expanding.
According to this type, we produce tanks with a capacity of V=1m³, V=9m³, V=17m³
Application
Capacitance measurement method used:
- Tube liquid level gauge with metal divider No. PLT 05232,
- Mixed ribbon gauge with Class II accuracy weights No. PLT 06170.
