3. APPLICATION
The AquaBank ® is intended solely for the stationary storage of non-potable
water.
ATTENTION! Storage of other substances, specifically oils,
diesel fuel, gasoline, and aggressive chemicals, is prohibited
and may lead to explosion of, or damage to, the tank and its
equipment. Furthermore, the tank is not suitable for storing drinking
water.
The AquaBank® is a non-pressurized tank intended for use ONLY IN THE
CONDITIONS OF ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE. The tank must be properly
vented in order to prevent overpressure or underpressure during the filling
or emptying processes. If the tank is vented improperly or not vented at all,
it is at risk of being damaged.
The temperature of the stored water cannot exceed ambient
temperature. The tank may be filled with water with temperature up to
40°C as long as the water cools down to 23°C within 24 hours. Please
remember that water is subject to freezing in low temperatures and will
clog up the equipment, e.g. the valves (see chapter 6.4). When the water
returns to liquid state all devices should return to operating order.
The manufacturer is not responsible for damage and losses
caused by improper use of the tank or failure to obey the
regulations applicable to such products.
4. LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
Although the tank is intended solely for storing water, this does
not however mean that the user is exempt from compliance
with regulations relating to, for example, Health and Safety and
the site and use of the tanks.
