Overview

Introducing ConVault, a superior line of above grade liquid storage vault solutions offering unsurpassed protection, versatility and reliability. The ConVault line of products are ideal for Fuel & Lube Dispensing, Oil & Chemical Storage, as well as Generator & Boiler Set applications. ConVault above ground fuel storage tanks, (AST), are a patented system utilizing a primary steel tank, integral secondary containment, and an engineered concrete outer vault to provide a UL listed, impact resistant, time tested fluid storage solution.

The Aboveground Solution to the Underground Problem

Interest in the preservation of our environment has prompted all levels of government to issue strict guidelines for the installation, operation and removal of underground storage tanks (USTs). In the event of a leak, the actual costs for soil and groundwater clean-up can be catastrophic.ConVault’s innovative Protected aboveground storage tanks are the proven solution for these problems.

Primary steel tanks (including spill containment basins) are fabricated in accordance with UL Standard 142 (Seventh Edition). The assembly has passed numerous performance tests including 2-hour liquid-pool/furnace fire tests, vehicle impact and projectile-resistance investigations. The ConVault AST is listed in accordance with ULC 142.16, ULC 142.23 and UL Standard 2085 Insulated/Secondary Containment for Aboveground Storage Tanks/Protected Type.

Designed for Value

The ConVault AST system will provide ongoing value for fuel storage. More stringent regulations are consistently on the horizon; however, with a ConVault AST the need for updating is greatly reduced while operating costs are substantially lower than virtually any other AST available. The end result: The Owner/Operator of a ConVault AST is always provided with PEACE OF MIND. Realizing the diverse needs of our industry, ConVault has responded by expanding our product line to include tank sizes ranging from 125 to 12,000 gallons (including multi-compartment options).ConVault ASTs are shop-fabricated under strict quality controls in accordance with UL Standard 2085 and/or ULC CAN/ORD 142.16 and 142.23 for Protected Tanks. The unit is shipped as a finished assembly, normally limiting the need for major on-site work to providing a concrete pad and electrical service.

Primary/secondary containment, leak monitoring and spill containment are independently tested at the plants to insure proper performance in the field. Each unit is pressurized twice at the factory for leak-tight purposes prior to shipment in accordance with UL and ULC requirements, as well as patenting processes. ConVault ASTs are produced at manufacturing sites around the world. Click here for the ConVault representative nearest you.
