Transcube Introduces XS Line of Heavy-Duty, Containerized Diesel Fuel Tanks
MILFORD, Conn. - Providing an environmentally friendly solution for heavy-duty, on-demand fuel supply, the new Transcube XS line of containerized fuel tanks have CSC and UL 142 certifications for safe diesel fuel storage. The double-walled tanks offer a unique containment design to eliminate the risk of spills, making them ideal for fueling large generators and energy farms, as well as for mining, oilfield and construction applications.
Two Transcube XS models are available. The TCS200 is a 20-foot ISO High Cube container-format tank with a capacity of 7,000 gallons, while the TCS400 is a 40-foot container offering an impressive capacity of 16,000 gallons. Each unit is designed with an inner fuel tank enclosed within an outer wall that provides 110-percent integral secondary containment.
All fill ports, pumps, fittings and connections are centrally located within one control cabinet, which includes a spill containment sump that is completely within the tank's secondary containment area. To prevent theft or tampering, access to fuel and pumping equipment is secured by lockable cabinet doors.
To provide direct plumbing to engines, the tanks are equipped with four feed and return connections at the top of the unit, with another three feeds located at the bottom. Each model features a 2-inch fill pipe - including an overfill prevention valve - that is easily accessible for quick refilling of the tank. A high accuracy contents gauge constantly monitors fuel levels.
An inspection manway allows for simple maintenance, cleaning and inspection of the inner fuel tank and compartments, while an internal roof access ladder provides access to components near the top of the tank. ISO corner twist locks keep the containers secure during transit. Additionally, the TCS200 has forklift pockets on two sides to allow for simple handling and positioning.
Transcube XS tanks are offered with several pumps, fittings and other optional tools, including electric transfer pumps, supply and return connections, fuel hoses and quick couplers, hose reels, gauges and overfill alarms. Tanks and fittings can also be supplied with custom colors to match a user's existing fleet of equipment.
For more than 40 years, Transcube has provided a comprehensive range of fuel tanks for environmental containment, transportation and deployment of fuel.
