Closed Top Tank Closed Top Liner


Installation of the Kentain closed top liner in a closed top tank requires a Kentain supervisor and or crew who are certified for confined space entry.

The prefabricated liner is taken through a manway and unfolded with the top side up. Semi rigid polyethylene tubing is inserted in the cross section hems.

Notches are provided at regular intervals to allow plastic rope to be fastened to the tubing.

The plastic rope is passed through the holes drilled in the tank cover and tied to the tubing. The liner is pulled up and secured in place.

Where flanged fittings are located, the flexible flanged tubes are pulled through the openings and smoothed into place. The liner is then visually inspected upon completion of the installation.



 
1. The bundled liner is lowered through the manway into the tank.

2. Chemical resistant polypropylene ropes are passed through holes in the tank top and fastened to the ribs on the top of the liner.

3. The liner is hoisted by the ropes into place.

4. The ropes are tied together to secure the liner into position.
