Islex Australia Pty Ltd

Islex’s fabricated Chemical Storage Tanks are designed and fabricated based on an assessment of the requirements of each tank, and are a reliable means of safely containing harmful or corrosive chemicals. Designed to DVS technical code 2205 and compliant with Australian Standards, our tanks provide an effective long term storage solution. Chemicals such as Sodium Hypochlorite, Hydrochloric Acid, Sodium Hydroxide, and Phosphoric Acid are all containable with a custom tank designed and fabricated by Islex Australia. Specialised German design software, Finite Element Analysis, and a state of the art manufacturing facility allow us to confidently stand by our workmanship with design life options of up to 25 years.

Where your PE pipe is terminating into a traditional tank it is now possible to consider a plastic fabricated tank, which has the advantage of a considerable reduction in maintenance as well as easier cleaning. Similarly with PE pipe PE 100 resin offers abrasion and corrosion resistant performance when designed in accordance with DVS 2205. Size limitation considerations are mostly related to transportation. Under DVS 2205 the dimension limits for a round tank are 4m diameter and 6m high. However with FEA modelling larger plastic tanks are possible. We have for example designed and fabricated a 10m high coal wash plant floatation tank. And multi layered large tanks up to 90mm thick have been manufactured for specific applications.
