Frequently Asked Questions about Stainless Steel Tanks:

What is a Stainless Steel Tank?

Stainless steel tanks are special storage and stock tanks made of 304, 316, or 321 stainless steel, used for storing various liquid substances. These tanks are especially preferred in hygienic environments and environments with a risk of rust. Unlike normal steel, stainless steel is resistant to corrosion, which makes it an ideal environment for storing liquids for a long time.

The long-lasting, safe, and durable structure of stainless steel tanks ensures that they find a wide range of uses in industrial facilities. In addition to safely storing powders or liquids, these tanks increase efficiency in processing processes such as mixing, heating, and cooling with additional equipment such as mixers, coils, jackets, and insulation.

Stainless steel tanks are preferred in many areas, from food processing plants to the chemical industry, from the pharmaceutical industry to the energy sector. Thanks to their strong structure, they offer reliable performance for many years and ensure business continuity.

How is Stainless Steel Tank Manufacturing Done?

Stainless steel tank manufacturing is a process that requires careful planning, correct material selection, and precise workmanship. Here is the general manufacturing process of a stainless steel tank in 8 steps:

1. Design: The first step is to understand customer requirements and storage needs and start the design process. At this stage, the dimensions, shape, connection points, support structures, and other details of the tank are determined. During the design phase, safety requirements, local regulations, and industry standards are taken into account.

2. Selection of Material to be Used: Stainless steel tanks are usually made of 304, 316, or 321 stainless steel. The material selection is made depending on the properties of the liquid to be stored, corrosion resistance, and other factors. Choosing the right material is important for the durability and longevity of the tank.

3. Cutting and Shaping: Stainless steel plates are cut to design-appropriate dimensions using cutting equipment and presses. The plates are then shaped and bent or welded to form a cylindrical or rectangular tank shape.

4. Determination of Welding Method: The parts of the stainless steel tank are joined using appropriate welding techniques and procedures. TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) or MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding methods are commonly used to provide high-quality weld connections. During the welding process, the leak-proofness and structural integrity of the tank are carefully controlled.

5. Connection Points and Hardware: The tank's inlet and outlet points, valves, fasteners, and other hardware are assembled. At this step, sealing gaskets, clamps, and other fasteners are also placed.

6. Processing and Surface Treatments: The inner surface of the tank is processed smoothly and cleanly. The stainless steel surface undergoes grinding and passivation processes to increase smoothness and make it more resistant to corrosion.

7. Testing and Control: At the end of the manufacturing process, tests and controls are carried out to verify that the tank complies with quality and safety standards. These include leak tests, pressure tests, and other quality control processes.

8. Shipping and Assembly: Completed stainless steel tanks are prepared for shipping and properly assembled at the destination. The assembly process includes the placement of the tank, making connections, and other installation operations.

How is the Installation and Assembly of Stainless Steel Tanks Done?

The installation and assembly of stainless steel tanks, when carried out correctly, ensure that you have a robust and safe storage system. Here is the general assembly process of a stainless steel tank in 7 steps:

1. Preparation: Before assembly, the preparation of the storage area is important. The area should be arranged according to the dimensions of the tank and support requirements. The floor on which the tank will be mounted should be level and solid. Necessary safety precautions should be taken.

2. Checking the Parts: Verify that the parts required for the assembly of the tank are complete and in good condition. Check the parts, take measurements, and make sure they comply with quality control processes.

3. Placement of the Tank: It is important to place the tank in the appropriate place. Support structures should be carefully placed on the base and substructure. Make sure the tank is aligned correctly.

4. Connections: The tank's inlet and outlet points, valves, pipes, and other fasteners must be assembled correctly. Make sure the connections are leak-proof and correctly positioned.

5. Welding and Connections: The welding and connections of the parts of the stainless steel tank should be carried out using appropriate welding techniques and procedures. Controls such as non-destructive testing (NDT) should be carried out when necessary to ensure that the welds are of good quality.

6. Tests and Inspections: After the assembly process, tests and inspections should be carried out to verify that the tank is assembled safely and correctly. These may include leak tests, pressure tests, and other controls.

7. Documents and Operating Instructions: It is important to document the assembly process and prepare operating instructions. This means recording the assembly process and providing instructions for the use, maintenance, and safety of the tank.

What is a Chromium Tank?

A chromium tank is a type of tank that is chrome-plated or made of chromium material. Chromium is a metal known for its high corrosion resistance and chemical resistance properties. Chromium tanks are used in applications such as the storage or processing of aggressive chemicals.

Chrome-plated tanks can be created by applying a chromium layer to the surface of steel or other materials. This coating increases the tank's resistance to corrosion and prevents chemicals from coming into contact with the tank surface.
