Largest Vessel Manufactured from Salford Facility
The largest diameter vessel we’ve manufactured to date from our Salford facility has recently been shipped off to Sellafield Ltd escorted by the Greater Manchester Police. The 78.5m³ process drains tank is headed into storage before going on to its final destination of Sellafield’s site. Once in place, it will play a part in UK’s green energy security for generations to come.
Key Stats:
- Item: Process Drains Tank
- Material: 316 Stainless Steel
- Inside Diameter: 6 Metres
- Height: 3.5 Metres
- Thickness: 15/25mm
- Volume: 78.5m³
The vessel was so large that we had to have the doors of the workshop widened to accommodate it!
We are particularly proud of successfully delivering this milestone project and would like to thank everyone involved from start to finish for making it happen.
