8 Precautions for the Installation and Operation of PE Water Tanks

Released Date: Nov 27,2015 Article Source: Yuanlai Water Treatment
The PE water tanks frequently used in water treatment are made of polyethylene material. They are tough in texture, light and tough, and have excellent corrosion resistance. Clean and beautiful Economical and durable, heat and cold resistant, odorless, meeting drinking water standards, and customizable, it is widely favored by all sectors. Now let's talk about 8 precautions for the installation and operation of PE plastic water tanks and storage tanks. 1. The cement ground foundation for installing the PE water tank should be level and capable of withstanding the corresponding load-bearing force. If it is used in an air steel structure, the gap should not be too large, and iron plates should be laid on top to keep it level and ensure that the bottom surface of the PE storage tank is flat, so as to increase the service life of the PE storage tank. Please remove any sharp objects or stones from the PE storage tank placement area. Due to the fact that the bottom of the PE storage tank inevitably protrudes into the tank during the molding process, a spherical crown is formed

1,Foundation

InstallationPEThe cement ground foundation of the water tank should be level and capable of withstanding the corresponding load-bearing force. If it is used in an aerial steel structure, the gap should not be too large, and iron plates should be laid on top to keep it level and ensure safetyPEThe bottom surface of the storage tank is flat to increasePEService life of storage tanks.PEPlease remove any sharp objects or stones from the storage tank placement area. BecausePEWhen the storage tank is formed, it is inevitable that the bottom protrudes into the tank to form a spherical crown shape. Therefore, the foundation should be made into a spherical crown shape similar to the bottom shape.

2Control device

Plastic water tanks are universal containers, so float balls or other effective control devices should be installed to control the liquid level. When the liquid level cannot be controlled, an overflow outlet should be installed to prevent the liquid from overflowing through the manhole and causing unnecessary harm. Please do not respondPEIncrease the internal or external pressure of the storage tank. When the inflow and outflow of liquid are large, exhaust holes of corresponding flow rates should be configured.

3"Interface"

Each plastic water tank has three holes for water inlet, water outlet and sewage discharge.PEThe water tank openings and accessories are configured according to the uses provided by the customer, includingPE"Flange,PEInterfacePVC,ABSStainless steel, iron interfaces and other options are available. The feed and discharge ports for strong acids, strong alkalis and organic solvents are adoptedPEMaterial flange connection.

4Sealing property

PEThe storage tank has been equipped with joints at the factory and its strength is excellent. Plastic joints are tightened when leaving the factory. During transportation and handling, the joints may become loose. Therefore, before use, the sealing performance of the joints should be checked. Liquid can be added above the joint area to observe if there is any leakage. For holding chemical liquidsPEStorage tanks should be tested for leaks with water to prevent significant losses. Please note that the connector isPE,PVC,ABSOr finished products made of resins such as nylon, if tightened too much, may damage the threads.

5Pipeline

When the liquid inlet is relatively high from the bottom of the water tank, the inlet should be bent towards the tank wall to allow the incoming liquid to fall along the tank wall, reducing the impact on the bottom.PEThe external connection of the storage tank is correct.PEWater tankPEThe pipes connected by the lower joint or flange of the storage tank should be perpendicular to the tank wall. It is better to use flexible connections or shock absorbers.10More than cubicPEPlease equip the storage tank with reinforcing sleeves to prevent uneven expansion of the tank wall at the top and bottom when it is filled with liquid, which may damage the connection of the discharge port and cause leakage. In severe cases, it may damage the joint and the entire body, affecting the service life of the joint and the tank body.

6Leak detection

After the piping work is completed, please be sure to conduct a full water pressure test to confirm whether there is any leakage. If there is any leakage, please recheck whether the sealing part and the threaded part of the joint are correct and make further adjustments.

7Temperature

PEThe temperature of the solution in the storage tank is generally-20℃60℃. If the temperature of the liquid being contained is higher than60℃At that time, a metal reinforcing sleeve should be configured to preventPEThe storage tank softens and deforms.

15More than cubicPEFor storage tanks, metal reinforcing sleeves can be used to prevent cracking at the holes of the tank body. Large specificationPEWhen installing the storage tank, it is important to note that a crane should be used as much as possible

EDI ultra-pure water system

EDI ultra-pure water system

Yuan LaiEDIThe ultra-pure water equipment uses electro-deionization technology.EDIElectrodeionization is a water purification method that combines the dual advantages of electrodialysis and ion exchange. It does not require acid-base chemical regeneration and can continuously and stably prepare high-purity ultrapure water. Under the action of a direct current electric field, ion separation in water is completed. At the same time, water is electrolyzed to generate hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions, achieving automatic regeneration of the resin without the need to stop the machine for manual regeneration. The pre-treatment combined with reverse osmosis can prevent oxidized substances from damaging the resin, ensuring stable effluent quality and widely meeting the high-standard water usage requirements of various industries.

Non-negative pressure water supply equipment

Non-negative pressure water supply equipment

The non-negative pressure water supply equipment can be directly connected to the municipal water supply network, making full use of the residual pressure of the original network for superimposed water supply. Fully enclosed operation does not require the construction of a domestic water tank, eliminating secondary pollution. Intelligent variable frequency voltage stabilization, energy-saving, quiet and easy installation, it is the preferred equipment for secondary water supply in high-rise residential buildings and commercial buildings.

Constant pressure water supply equipment

Constant pressure water supply equipment

Constant pressure water supply equipment is widely used in central air conditioning, floor heating, industrial closed-loop water circulation, and boiler systems. It integrates automatic pressure stabilization, automatic water replenishment, automatic exhaust, pressure relief and buffering functions. It stabilizes the pressure in the pipeline network, eliminates abnormal sounds caused by air blockage, and prevents damage from negative pressure and water shortage in the pipeline. It is an essential supporting equipment for HVAC and circulating water systems.
