Features of a Bunded Fuel Tank

Knowing very well that a bunded fuel tank is used for the transportation of fuel, then it should be of importance that all the necessary care and precautions be observed in ensuring that all the safety standards have been met. For instance, there have been well documented cases of normal fuel tanks having leakages and you can only imagine what happens when such a container or tank comes into contact with fire. But to avoid the occurrence of such a scenario, it is important that you learn to first go through all those tanks on offer and buy from a reputable firm.

A good bunded fuel tank should have proper steel on top. And this does not mean the normal type of steel used in various other products, but a purely fortified form of steel that cannot be easily punctured and as a result lead to leakages. Firstly, the leakages could cause major and unimaginable levels of accidents; while secondly, they could lead to massive losses especially for those who have the oil in their possession, not for personal use but for commercial purposes. Fortified, stainless steel is an ideal material for ensuring the safety of a fuel tank.

Make sure that before you purchase a bunded fuel tank, the bund is full and not partial. This means that it should not be bunded up to a certain level and then the rest left out such that it comes into contact with the fuel. More so, this should apply to the plastic ones since they are the ones which can be easily perforated. The steel ones too need proper bunding, since they are also prone to being perforated but their chances are a bit low when compared to the previous.

You should note that bunded fuel tanks are not only made of steel but they can also be made from plastic. Just ensure that you have gotten yourself the one with the best specifications.
