Potable water storage is a critical component of public health and infrastructure. Ensuring safe, clean, and long-term storage requires tanks designed to meet stringent industry standards, like the AWWA D103-09 specifications. Epoxy-coated steel tanks have become a preferred choice due to their durability, reliability, and ability to preserve water quality. As a leader in the tank manufacturing industry, Center Enamel provides AWWA D103-09 compliant epoxy-coated steel tanks, engineered for excellence in potable water storage applications.
Understanding AWWA D103-09 Standards
The American Water Works Association (AWWA) developed the D103-09 standard to provide guidelines for bolted steel tanks used in water storage. Tanks compliant with this standard must meet specific criteria for:
Structural Integrity: Ensures tanks can withstand pressure, environmental conditions, and operational loads.
Corrosion Resistance: Specifies materials and coatings that prevent rust and contamination.
Hygiene Standards: Guarantees water remains safe and uncontaminated throughout storage.
Tanks adhering to AWWA D103-09 are recognized for their reliability and safety, making them an ideal solution for potable water storage systems in municipalities, industrial facilities, and rural communities.
Benefits of Epoxy-Coated Steel Tanks
Epoxy-coated steel tanks offer several advantages for potable water storage, especially when built to AWWA D103-09 standards:
1. Exceptional Durability
Epoxy coatings provide a robust barrier against corrosion and wear, extending the tank’s lifespan. This durability is critical for potable water systems, which often operate under varying weather and environmental conditions.
2. Superior Hygiene
The non-porous nature of epoxy coatings ensures that the tank’s interior remains smooth and impermeable, preventing bacterial growth and contamination. This makes them ideal for maintaining water quality in potable storage applications.
3. Cost-Effective Maintenance
Epoxy-coated tanks require minimal upkeep compared to other tank materials. The high-quality coating resists corrosion and damage, reducing maintenance costs over the long term.
4. Adaptable to Various Capacities
Whether for small rural communities or large urban municipalities, epoxy-coated steel tanks can be designed in various sizes to meet specific water storage requirements.
