Crosslinked Polyethylene Storage Tank Systems (XLPE)
Tanks built to give you greater useful life storing LAS
Liquid Ammonium Sulfate (LAS) has become widely accepted as a stable and effective source of ammonia for chloramination. Alternatives such as anhydrous or aqueous ammonia are hazardous, sometimes requiring pressurized storage tanks as well as special handling and safety procedures. Unlike aqueous ammonia, LAS has an indefinite storage life, it is odorless and non-toxic.
Poly Processing Company’s XLPE tanks are engineered for your specific LAS requirements:
- Poly Processing’s crosslinked XLPE tanks can make your storage system work ideally for storing LAS. An Integrally Molded Flanged Outlet, IMFO® system is ideal for LAS storage giving you greater discharge control and ease of cleaning, since the tank feeds through its true bottom. This fitting is molded into the tank at lowest point possible on the sidewall which avoids sediment buildup and leak points with total drainage and potential leaks with mechanically attached
fittings. The IMFO tanks are available in Flat Bottom as well as Sloped Bottom. - Poly Processing’s XLPE tanks have 10 times the Environmental Stress Crack Resistance of High Density Linear Polyethylene (HDPE) tanks and seamless construction which eliminates the potential for chemical attack points and bad welds or joints found in some fiberglass tanks and steel tanks.
- Components for your tank should include PVC fittings, 316 SS bolts, and EDPM gaskets.
