Field Erected Galvanized Steel Tanks w/Farbertite Coating
Field Erected Corrugated Galvanized Steel Tanks With "Farbertite Coating"
Fire Protection
Many County and State fire departments recommend corrugated steel tanks as economical alternatives to bolted or welded water tanks for fire protection storage. American Tank Company also provides all fire accessories required for your specific job. Check with your local Fire Marshall for approval equipment and approvals.
Irrigation, Water Storage
Vineyards, Farms and Ranches throughout the west rely on ATC Corrugated Galvanized Steel Tanks to maximize the efficiency of water well production and to control distribution and pumping cycles.
Erected on Site
Field erected tanks are delivered in sections and are erected on site. This makes the ATC tank an ideal choice for those hard to reach locations
Warranty & Savings
Shop Built Corrugated tanks are backed by a one year manufacturer's warranty. Tanks are engineered and manufactured from corrugated hot dipped mill galvanized steel. These tanks are extremely cost effective when compared to bolted or welded steel tanks.
Safety
Most field erected tanks meet seismic safety standards without anchoring, saving the expense of a concrete foundation. Set on a contained gravel foundation, wide diameters provide resistance to overturning without the need for seismic anchors. If anchoring is required or requested, American Tank Co. wet stamp for building permits. will provide a foundation design and submittal drawings with a California Civil Engineers or customer approval.
Size
Field erected corrugated tanks are typically specified for storage requirements between 20,000 to 150,000 gallon capacities.
Farbertite
Farbertite is a Bituminous Ceramic Emulsion coating. Applied to the interior of a tank, Farbertite bonds to the metal to form a water tight membrane to inhibit water contact with the steel. This membrane prevents rust and insures the longest possible tank life.
Service
Corrugated galvanized steel tanks have been manufactured in California for over 100 years. The normal service life is 25-30 years based on historical observations. With periodic maintenance, ATC tanks can provide 30 to 50 years of quality service.
