BITUMEN STORAGE, TRANSFER & CONTROL SYSTEMS

Bitumen Storage Tanks

Cormac bitumen storage tanks are exclusively designed and manufactured to seamlessly integrate with your plant equipment. Available in a range of sizes from 10m3 to 300 m3. With Vertical, Horizontal and mobile options available to suit your application.

Every tank is built with energy efficiency and safety in mind. Our next generation tanks offer the highest levels of insulation in the industry and can be customised to suit all applications and heating requirements.

Safety As Standard

All Cormac tanks are designed with RBA compliant safety systems to prevent overfilling and spillages. The safety control system incorporates an exclusive TDR guided radar continuous tank level measuring system including an independents high alarm probe.

Thermal Efficiency

How Energy Efficient Is Your Bitumen Storage?

Cormac Engineering’s drive towards continual improvement and energy usage reduction has resulted in the next generation of energy-efficient vertical tanks.

The CorthermTM system uses a combination of traditional insulation materials, combined with an exclusive reflective thermal coating, which together produce significant energy savings compared to conventionally clad tank designs.

Independently Tested

Tests carried out on our 100 m3 tank clearly show that users can benefit from an annual energy saving of over 40000 kWh! To further reduce energy consumption the tanks are fitted with progressive multistage heating systems, which maintain the temperature of bitumen within 1.5 ̊C of your required set point.

TRANSFER & CONTROL SYSTEMS

Safe & Accurate

The Cormac TDR Safety System has a well proven track record when it comes to bitumen level measuring and provides accurate results even when the conductors become coated.

The system uses data from the TDR sensor to provide an early warning high level alarm. A simple traffic light system situated on the control panel gives the delivery tanker driver a clear and simple method of assessing the status of the tank at all times, this is supported by an audible warning to prevent overfilling at the point of delivery.
