Custom Vacuum Tank | Long Island New York
Custom Vacuum Tanks Custom Vacuum Tanks use carbon steel, stainless steel, or aluminum when being constructed. Carbon steel tends to rust. Stainless Steel resists rusting a lot, and aluminum oxidizes (rusts in a different process). Aluminum tanks do have a weight advantage enabling modifications to be made in bigger capacities. Vacuum Truck Tanks can be measured in barrels (BBLS) or liquid Gallons. The outside shell of the tank and the heads can vary in thickness depending on the client's specifications. On the inside of the tank there are baffles. Note: Smooth bore tanks have no baffles. A baffled tank has 1 baffle or more. Baffle components are essential in breaking water surge or gravitational shifts of kinetic energy that can potentially affect control of a vehicle when in motion. Note: New York has a lot of road traffic, so a tank with baffles is highly suggested as opposed to a smooth bore tank Customizing A Vactor Truck or Septic Truck 101 Coleman Vacuum Sys
