    Commercial Pioneer Water Tanks

    Pioneer Water Tanks offer a heavy-duty configurable water storage solution for even the most demanding projects. Built from high-quality Zincalume® steel and engineered to specifications, our tanks are among the most durable in the industry. This claim is backed by a competitive, per-project manufacturer’s warranty on the tank body, liner, and accessories where conditions are met.

    Project Support from Engineering to Installation

    Commercial Pioneer Water Tanks are delivered to and built directly at the project site without the use of cranes, which reduces the overall project cost and allows for the most flexibility in adapting to the site’s installation requirements.

    ONLY PIONEER HAS OVER 30-YEARS OF PROVIDING…

    1. The AQUALINER® Fresh, the only antimicrobial tank liner in the world. The Industratex® commercial tank liner for specialized applications.

    2. The PIONEER V-LOCK® tank wall profile provides the strength of corrugated steel and maintains support for the liner while minimizing stress.

    3. The industry-leading 20–year conditional warranty on the tank and liner.

    4. The heavy-duty roof truss system, manufactured for extreme conditions.

    5. Our standard accessories and commercial upgrades expand the functionality of your tank.

    Commercial Specification Catalog

     

    > Pioneer Water Tanks Catalog

    Commercial Pioneer Water Tanks are engineered for durability with increased roof trussing and tank wall reinforcement. Commercial water storage systems utilize the heavy-duty roof that is structurally designed to enable mounting of features such as vents, hatches, and or platforms.

     

    The commercial Pioneer Water Tank system series can be configured to the application with accessory options. Our engineering packages work with local engineering consultants to provide for the permitting.

    100,000-GALLON WATER STORAGE TANK SYSTEM

    The 100,000-Gallon model of Pioneer Water Tank is a three stacked panel system with increased roof trussing and wall panel enforcement. Wall panel sheets are pre-curved for each tank size to achieve the required circumference. Tank walls are comprised of three stacked rings bolted together with reinforcement. An overflow outlet is placed in one upper wall panel to account for design seismic sloshing effects. The overflow outlet height varies by tank size.

     

    The XLE 50/03 Pioneer Water Tank is designed in accordance with AS2304 “Water storage tanks for fire systems” which references AS1170-2 Structural design actions Part 2 – Wind actions. The wind design parameters are:

    • Importance level 2 (Normal Structures)
    • 25-year design life (200-year recurrence interval)
    • Region B
    • Terrain Category 2
    • Structure height < 5 metres (16.4ft)
    • Topographical and shielding factors = 1.0
    • Basic regional wind velocity = 51.8ms-1 (115.9mph)
    • Resulting design pressure = 1.21kPa (25.3psf)

    DESIGN SEISMIC LOADS

     

    This tank is designed to withstand an effective seismic acceleration coefficient of up to 0.7 (refer Tables 2 & 3) and the seismic loads developed as per AS2304 which has the same methodology as AWWA D 103-97 “Factory Coated Bolted Steel Tanks for Water Storage”. The attached calculation sheets are for a seismic acceleration coefficient of 0.7.

    DESIGN ROOF LIVE OR SNOW LOADS

     

    Pioneer Water Tanks XLE-S series tanks are designed to withstand a maximum uniformly distributed live load or snow load of 1.0kPa (20psf) or a concentrated load of 1.4kN (300lbs) with the addition of internal and external columns and diagonal truss bracing. Roof support structures (trusses) are designed to accommodate maintenance and construction footfalls in the vicinity of the roof trusses. Roof activity shall be limited to installation and/or maintenance purposes. Roof structures shall not be altered or re-roofed without professional engineering
    advice.

    Pioneer Water Tanks keep water fresh and clean

    Pioneer Water Tanks, AQUALINER® Fresh antimicrobial tank liner is a world’s first to keep your water fresher, for longer.

     

    For families across the world relying on the quality of tank water for their daily use and consumption, this means for the first time, being able to enjoy the additional peace of mind that comes with fresher, purer and cleaner water, thanks to the use of antimicrobial technology on the inside lining of Pioneer water tanks.

     

    The AQUALINER® Fresh is manufactured utilizing a patented three-layer process that adheres to a PP Multifilament Base with a Polyethylene Film on the surface.

     

    • The PP base, PP/PE Coating, and PE Film are all bound together through a process called Extrusion Coating.
    • The PP Multifilament Base provides strength, flexibility, and dimensional stability.
    • The PE Film provides toughness, water-resistance, and heat seal characteristics.

    Commercial projects may require implementing the Pioneer Water Tanks’ Industratex® liner. The Industratex® tank liner can store a wide variety of non aggressive and aggressive water types but requires testing and controlled systems to ensure the tank liner lifespan.

    The Industratex® tank liner is resistant to various chemicals, but to be certain if suitable for your application we recommend a chemical analysis report to confirm.

    Pioneer Water Tanks Foundations

    The foundation for Pioneer Water Tanks depends on the location and application of the water storage project. Pioneer Water Tanks may have the option to sit on a clean sand pad base or may be required to be anchored to a concrete ring beam depending on the local authority.

    This short video shows a concrete ring beam being installed for a 51,785-Gallon Pioneer Water Tank in Nothern California.

    Concrete ring beam outline for Pioneer Water Tanks

    The ring beam drawings specify the size, number and spacing of the reinforcing bars and ligatures to be used as well as the MPA rating for the concrete. Ring beams should be as level as possible and have no more than +/- 1/16” over any 5’0” (+/- 2mm over any 2m) of the circumference at the tank wall position and +/- 1/8” (+/- 4mm) over the entire ring beam. A survey chart will need to be completed and returned to your local installer for approval before the construction is started.

    The local Pioneer Water Tanks installer needs to ensure that foundation conditions are adequate. All water storage systems are subject to the local authority requirements so Pioneer Water Tanks also recommends local installers adhere to that authority for the tank location.
