UL2085 Fire Rated AST Fireguard
The
Aboveground Alternative
The Fireguard® Tank is an attractive alternative for complying with
stringent underground tank regulations. The Fireguard® technology
was developed through years of research by the Steel Tank Institute
and its members, in conjunction with fire marshals, code officials and
Underwriters Laboratories. The Fireguard® tank is Underwriters Laboratories
UL-2085 labeled for Fire Protection, Impact Resistance, Ballistics Resistance
and Secondary Containment.
FIREGUARD® TANK
Technology
The Fireguard® tank employs the best available technology. Use it
to reduce installation code setback requirements by at least 50%. Some
jurisdictions require the fire protection Fireguard® affords when
storing flammable or combustible liquids above ground. The Fireguard®
tank is a inches of high efficiency insulating material between the
two walls. This insulation provides thermal protection for the inner
tank in the unlikely event of a pool fire or other extreme heat. The
porous insulation material allows migration of any liquid through the
interstice to the monitoring point. Unlike outdated concrete tanks,
Fireguard®'s steel outer wall protects the insulation eliminating
the problem of cracking and spalling concrete
