Diesel Tank FAQs
Why would a business need diesel tanks?
Diesel tanks keep the fuel safe from contamination and are also designed for transportation when needed. They are often used to refuel machinery or vehicles on site. Having quick and easy access to diesel helps businesses complete urgent jobs efficiently by ensuring equipment can be fuelled without delay.
What is the life expectancy of a diesel tank?
The average life expectancy of a diesel tank is around 20 years. However, this may vary depending on factors such as maintenance, storage environment, and material quality.
Do tanks for diesel fuel need to be bunded?
For non-domestic purposes, any diesel storage above 200 litres must be in a bunded diesel tank. Bunding ensures leaks or spills are safely contained, preventing environmental contamination. Always check the tank material to ensure it won’t corrode and is strong enough to avoid leaks.
Are plastic tanks for diesel fuel better than steel tanks?
Both steel and plastic diesel tanks are suitable, but steel is often chosen for its durability and strength. Plastic tanks, however, can be a more cost-effective option. The choice depends on budget, application, and storage environment.
What liquids can diesel dispensing tanks be used for storing and dispensing?
Diesel dispensing tanks are only suitable for storing and dispensing diesel. They must not be used for other liquids to avoid contamination and safety risks.
How long can diesel be stored in a tank?
Diesel can typically be stored for 6 to 12 months. Its shelf life is reduced if exposed to heat, moisture, or contamination. To maximise storage life, keep diesel clean, cool, and in suitable conditions. Regular inspections and fuel polishing can help extend its usability.
