Design & Fabrication of Pneumatic Bulk Conveying Equipment
The VOLKS-TANKpatented design tanks operate with superior performance and service maintenance.
VOLKS-TANK builds them better, faster, and at very competitive prices. Couple this with
Volks' reputation for quality, service and integrity during and after the sale and you'll find Volks to be the best choice for your next project.
VOLKS-TANK is primarily concerned with the design and manufacture of dry bulk handling equipment, devoting particular attention to pneumatic tanks. Our VOLKS-
TANK designs of horizontal and vertical tanks have been universally accepted as a result of quality construction and operating efficiency in all applications.
VOLKS-TANKS are pressure vessels designed primarily for carrying dry pulverized material such as barite, cement, bentonite, and other materials used in drilling operations. Pressure ranges are generally low, varying from 15 PSI to 80 PSI with air volumes ranging from 300 CFM to 600 CFM.
VOLKS-TANK has developed a unique patented, high volume, vertical pumping tank which eliminates the need for a cone design pressure vessel. By eliminating the cone bottom, we substantially reduce the height and increase the cubic volume in the same area. This high volume design is of particular value where maximum space utilization is essential, such as ships and drilling rigs.
