Large size field tanks are critical for industries requiring the storage of corrosive or abrasive liquids and gases. These tanks are designed to overcome transportation limitations and on-site challenges, offering a customizable and cost-effective solution. Jrain FRP, a leading manufacturer, specializes in field-wound fiberglass reinforced polymer (FRP) tanks, ensuring durability and compliance with global standards.

The Manufacturing Process of Large Size Field Tanks

The production of large size field tanks involves a series of precise steps, as outlined below:

1. Mobilization: A dedicated manufacturing team is assembled, and a Project Manager is appointed. Machinery and materials are transported to the project site.
2. Setup: Winding machines and molds are installed at the site, tailored to the tank's diameter specifications.
3. Production: A liner is created, followed by the winding process using selected resins and fiberglass, adhering to design parameters.
4. Demolding: The finished tank is carefully removed from the mold and positioned appropriately.
5. Installation: Fittings such as nozzles, ladders, and handrails are installed, followed by a hydrostatic test to ensure structural integrity before handover.

Jrain’s field winding equipment ensures that the mechanical properties of the laminates match those produced in controlled workshop environments. This process is particularly advantageous for overcoming size constraints and difficult access, as highlighted by NIST research on industrial material applications.

Technical Specifications and Customization Options

Jrain’s large size field tanks are engineered to meet diverse industrial needs. Key technical specifications include:

Parameter	Details
Size Range	DN4500mm – DN25000mm
Materials	Customizable resins (e.g., epoxy, vinyl ester) and fiberglass reinforcements
Standards Compliance	ASME RTP-1, ASTM D3299, ASTM D4097, BS EN 13121
