Fuelling a safer environment
Vehicles, plant and machinery all need fuelling and on site fuel needs safe storage in bunded diesel and bio-diesel tanks. Then you need an integrated pump, hose and automatic cut-off nozzle, often with a flow meter and filter incorporated in the fuel management system to log and control the fuel being used.
Dispensing the fuel also calls for equipment to be contained in an area of the tank that offers protection against accidental spillage and overall you're looking for complete environmental compliance. Southern Tank Services offer a supply and installation facility backed by many years of experience. In fact, they are celebrating 10 years in the fuel tank business and can offer a wide range of solutions in plastic and steel tanks with a variety of pump options, ranging from a hand pump or 110v or 240 v ac and 12v or 24v dc battery powered pumps.
The medium density polyethylene tanks are available from 1,300 to 15,000 litres with pump and equipment to suit the majority of end user requirements. Southern Tank supply EnviroBulka steel tanks that have been designed with site, yard and farm use in mind.
They offer a generous sized fuel cabinet to store the pump and hose as well as barrels and spill kits, with high security and the ability to fuel other appliances, such as grain dryers, generators and boilers. Meeting the Environment Agency's regulations is paramount and their dislike of gravity diesel tanks has prompted Southern Tank Services to develop a system that allows the same ground level bunded tank to re-fuel tractors and vehicles while being able to maintain a pressure regulated fuel supply for grain dryers.
While the system can be used with most tanks and existing pipework it has become very popular in use with the EnviroBulka range of tanks.
