Autogas Tanks
LPG autogas tanks are pressurized containers that enable the safe storage of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), which is used as fuel in vehicles. Manufactured from high-pressure resistant steel, these tanks are designed and tested in accordance with international standards to meet criteria such as leak-proofing, impact resistance, and fire safety. Autogas tanks are a fundamental component of LPG systems, enabling both environmentally friendly and economical fuel usage.
General Features
- They are manufactured as above-ground or underground storage tanks according to the model.
- The tank is designed with a cylindrical cross-section and manufactured with the most durable and safest combination.
- Our tanks use special high-strength, fine-grained, normalized “P” series pressure vessel steel in accordance with the EN 10028-3 standard. The mechanical and metallurgical properties of the steel have been tested and verified.
- Elliptical domed tank heads with stress relief properties are used in accordance with standards.
- Production and quality processes are carried out by a qualified and experienced engineer under the supervision of an independent inspection body, in accordance with standards and procedures.
- All welded joints are tested and inspected by competent, internationally certified NDT personnel.
- After assembly, all tanks undergo a hydrostatic pressure test. Following this test, the tank accessories’ connections are tested for air leaks.
- The tank’s outer surfaces are sandblasted to SA quality 2.5 before painting.
