SMC water tank is also called SMC storage tank, FRP/GRP water tank, SMC panel tanks. It is a new type of tank. It is made of high qualified SMC panels. Sheet molding compound (SMC) is a kind of fiberglass reinforced plastic, which is a mixture of unsaturated polyester resin with impregnating augmentation material, filling material and glass fiber. SMC water tank is nontoxic, durable, lightweight, corrosion resistant and good-looking. Meanwhile, it's easy to maintain and long-life. It is widely used in water storage in residential buildings, schools, hotel. SMC water tanks are used both for domestic water as well as medicine and health where needs good water supply quality.

3. FEATURES OF GRP TANK

1). Super Hygienic
In compliance with WRAS (Water Regulation Advisory Scheme) making with
the quality of material which is hygienic passes a taste, a smell and a poisonous etc.
5 kind test being a water tank, was verified.

2). Free capacity can be designed
Various sized panels can make the below tanks that utilize the most horizontal and perpendicular space and also can be erected from small capacity tank to huge tank.

Tank capcity can be from 0.25M3 up to a maximum of 10,000M3

3). Safety of Bottom Panel for Water Pressure
The convex panel can be the water pressure created by filling the tank seals the joint preventing leakage.
In other type tanks, water pressure can loosen the joint breaking the seal and allowing the stored water leak out.

4). Prevents Leakage
The joint are sealed with a special sealing tape.
It maintains soft itself and adhesives even at low temperature.

5). Complete Drainage
The convex bottoms with a concave drain panel system make sure complete and fast drainage.

4. APPLICTION

1) Potable Water Storage (drinking water)

2) Rainwater Harvesting & Storage

3) Emergency Water Storage

4) Pump Chambers

5) Effluent/Acid and alkali solution treatment & Storage

6) Hospital,buildings,building site, school and other place

5. INSTALLATION

Step 1. Install steel footings on leveled concrete foundations.
Step 2. Align GRP panels to be pre-assembled.
Step 3. Place rubber sealant from ready-to-use roll between panels.
Step 4. Connect panels with bolts and nuts.
Step 5. Position bottom panel sections, and finish up base of tank.
Step 6. Position three sides of the tank.
Step 7. Position and fix roof panels and if required, roof support pipes and plates.
Step 8. Install reinforcement if required.
Step 9. Close up the tank with the fourth side.
Step 10. Finish the internal or external reinforcement.
Step 11. Fill and test.

Installation note

Tank foundation can be concrete strip beam, or I beam. At diagonal corners of the tank top are equipped with air filtration devices. Inside the water tank are ribs. Each connection flanges are standard 1.0MPa flanges .
Cautions

1. Please do not store water higher than 70°C or other liquid (chemicals, oil and so on).
2. Water tank must keep away from fire.
3. Prevent pollutants and plunges from outside.
4. Use soft apparatus to clean. As to the new water tank, clean twice before use.
