You can count on us for AST tanks and equipment

There's no need to look high and low for aboveground tanks and related appurtenances. Talk with us regarding aboveground tanks for any number of applications. Mascott Equipment works with numerous
tank fabricators. While our primary focus is petroleum storage, we can help with other applications as
well, including tanks for water collection and storage, asphalt storage, paint and chemical storage, grease interceptors and oil/water separators.

As mentioned, our primary field is providing UL approved fuel storage in horizontal and vertical
configurations (in addition to the oval-style home heating oil tanks). UL codes addressed by our suppliers
as far as petroleum storage:

•UL-80 — For steel atmospheric tanks ranging in size from 60 to 660 gallons. Intended for unenclosed installation inside of buildings or for outside aboveground applications as permitted by ANSI/NFPA 30 (the Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code) and ANSI/NFPA 31 (Standard for Installation of Oil-Burning Equipment). Primarily for the storage and supply of fuel oil for oil burners.

•UL-142 — For steel atmospheric single and doublewall tanks, covering aboveground storage of non-corrosive, stable flammable and combustible liquids with a specific gravity not exceeding that of water. Such labeled tanks are intended for installation and use in accordance with NFPA 30 (the Flammable and Combustible liquids code), NFPA 30A (Motor Fuel Dispensing Facilities and Repair Garages), and NFPA 31 (Standard for Installation of Oil-Burning Equipment), as well as the Uniform Fire Code published by the International Fire Code Institute.

•UL-2085 — "Protected Aboveground Tanks for Flammable and Combustible Liquid". For steel
atmospheric doublewall tanks, covering aboveground storage of non-corrosive, stable flammable and combustible liquids with a specific gravity not exceeding that of water. These tanks are constructed and intended to limit the heat transferred to the primary tank then the vessel is exposed to a four-hour hydrocarbon pool fire at 2000° F during which no single point temperature may exceed 400° F. They are provided with protection from physical damage including projectile and vehicle impact. Intended for use in accordance with the Uniform Fire Code, which is published by the International Fire Code Institute, NFPA 30 (the Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code), and NFPA 30A (the Automotive and Marine Service Station Code).

A fourth UL standard —UL-2080— exists as well. Captioned "Fire Resistant Aboveground Tanks for Flammable and Combustible Liquids", this standard requires aboveground tanks to withstand a two-hour fire test during which a single point temperature may reach 1000° F, but the average tank temperature
may not exceed 800° F.
