The top of this tank may be used as a hose bed, with optional dividers (see section 14). Hose beds stretch the full width and full length of the tank. “T”-style tank fabricated from non-corrosive, stress-relieved virgin copolymer polypropylene thermoplastic material. All exterior tank joints and seams are extrusion welded. All welds conform to DVS and AWS standards. All joints, seams, and welds tested for integrity and leaks and are certified to be free from defects. The top of the tank is white with a textured finish and is fitted with removable lifting eyes designed with a 3-to-1 safety factor to facilitate easy removal. The upper rear of the tank has a transverse internal bulkhead isolated from the water carrying portion of the tank. This area may be used for wiring connections and for installing lights and grab handles. The use of external blocks for mounting equipment will be kept to a minimum providing a pleasant appearance. Wire tubes will be installed inside the tank, originating in the transverse bulkhead, and terminating at the bottom of the tank. Wires for lights and equipment will not be visible from the outside of the tank. The material thickness will be dependent upon its function. The sides, top and ends will be 3/4" (.75) thick. The baffles and fill tower will be 3/8 to 1/2" (.50) thick. The transverse swash partitions extend approximately 4” off the floor to just under the cover. The longitude swash partitions extend from the floor to the tank through the cover to allow for positive welding and maximum integrity. All partitions are equipped with vent and air holes to permit movement of air and water between compartments. The partitions are designed to provide maximum water flow. All swash partitions interlock with one another and are welded to each other as well to the walls of the tank. This baffling system will be fully compliant with NFPA and the DOT regulations. There will be a sump located on the bottom of the tank with a ¾” drain valve at the lowest point. A 3” minimum removable clean out plug is installed at the bottom rear and bottom front of the tank. Tank fill couplings backed with flow deflectors to disperse the stream of water entering the tank, and capable of withstanding sustained fill rates of up to 1,000 G.P.M. at 100 PSI maximum.
