Clark Welding is aware of the growing importance of dependable backup power options as dependency on electricity grows. A generator system that protects against power disruptions is essential to this approach. However, reliable fuel delivery and a fuel storage tank system must exist to operate generators effectively. Our generator day supply tanks (DSTs) promote smooth power generation. DSTs are special-purpose fuel storage tanks designed to give backup generators easy access to fuel. Usually, they are located above ground.

Benefits of Above Ground Generator Day Supply Tanks

Above ground day supply tanks  for generators. manufactured by Clark Welding,  provide the following benefits:

Availability: Simple access for refueling, maintenance, and inspection.

Security: There is a lower chance of leaks and spills than with underground tanks.

Adaptability: Easy relocation and adaptation to changing site requirements.

Generator Tank Options

Clark Welding can bundle our above ground generator day supply tanks (DSTs) with integrated transfer and polishing systems, among other options, ensuring a consistent supply of clean fuel. These options significantly enhance generator systems’ performance, life span, and durability. They contribute to a safer, more sustainable energy supply and protect vital operations during blackouts.

Fuel Transfer and Polishing Systems

To maximize fuel handling and guarantee efficient generator operation, Clark Welding offers fuel transfer and polishing systems. A sophisticated transfer and polishing system and an above ground generator day supply tank are a solid foundation for dependable and effective backup power generation.

Fuel Transfer Systems

Maintaining reliable generator performance requires efficient fuel transfer. Typical transfer methods implemented with generator day supply tanks consist of the following:

Gravity Feed

Utilizing gravity to transfer fuel from the DST to the generator is appropriate for short distances and minor elevation differences.

Pump Transfer

Fuel can be transferred across greater distances and elevations using pumps to carry fuel from the DST to the generator.

Fuel Transfer Systems

Integrated systems use pumps, filters, and automatic control to deliver fuel smoothly while maximizing efficiency and minimizing operator interaction.

Fuel Polishing

The longevity and performance of generators are significantly influenced by fuel quality. Fuel polishing systems guarantee clean and reliable fuel distribution by eliminating impurities and water from the fuel.

Benefits of Fuel Transfer and Polishing Systems

There are several benefits to using above ground generator day supply tanks with integrated transfer and polishing systems.

Improved Reliability of Generators

Decreasing the possibility of fuel-related malfunctions and guaranteeing a steady supply of clean fuel.

Lower Upkeep Expenses

Fewer engine overhauls and repairs related to fuel. Improved Ecological Efficiency

Lower emissions are a result of burning fuel more cleanly.

Enhanced Efficiency in Operations

Fuel handling is streamlined by automated systems, lowering the risk of human error and manual intervention.

Applications

Above ground day supply tanks for generators equipped with transfer and polishing systems are widely used in many different applications, such as:

Commercial Buildings

Ensuring a constant power supply for critical components such as emergency lighting, elevators, and HVAC.

Industrial Facilities

Ensuring uninterrupted operations in vital industries such as data centers, manufacturing, and healthcare.

Remote Locations

Supplying dependable electricity in places like construction sites where grid availability is restricted.
