Yes this is correct it will gravity fill the day tank until empty. There is a level switch on the day tank that will switch when the day tank is say at 200 litres and another can be put in place. Alternate we offer pressure transducers for level indication also.
What are the unloading procedures for Self-bunded tanks?
Our 1,500ltr to 10,000ltr self-bunded tanks are always despatched on a pallet. This means that they can be unloaded with either a forklift or crane with spreader bar. It’s important that it is only lifted from underneath the tank unless there are purpose-built lift lugs welded on. For tanks above this size please refer to the lifting plans.
