Internal floating roof(cover) is one kind of energy saving and environmental protection equipment which rise and fall on the surface of the liquid by buoyancy inside the storage tank.
It focuses on reducing the volatilization of the medium in storage tank, the loss of energy and protecting the environment. By installing the floating roofs to seal the medium, the storage tank is able to reduce the temperature and achieve the goal to save energy and protect the environment.
Internal Floating Roof Features/Benefits:
- It has high structural strength and more stability, meanwhile the structure itself can produce damping effect, which will rapidly reduce and defuse the shock wave.
- The new assembling inner floating roofs adopt the unique pontoons arrangement form, intensive layout of outer circle pontoons ensures reliable and smooth operation of the seal.
- The pontoons are extruded by aluminum which has no axial weld and reducing the possibility of leakage.
- Energy-saving effect is significant, up to 95%
- High tank use ratio. Because of the small liquid-gas space inside the floating roof, generally less than 100mm, the whole structure is only 300mm thickness. Therefore, compared with other structural floating roof, the storage tanker space is increased and the storage efficiency is improved.
- Simple and rapid installation, corrosion-resistant, easy maintenance. Floating roof installation uses bolted connection, no welding, especially for the reform tank; parts are manufactured by mold, with good interchangeability and versatility.
- Good safety performance The product design of the electrostatic discharge has perfect specification, no potential electrostatic hazards, and do not need to install welding to ensure that the use of safe floating roofs.
