Revitalize Your Truck with HiVol Water Tanks
By swapping out the dump bed of your old transport truck, Philippi-Hagenbuch’s HiVol Water Tanks offer an opportunity to repurpose the vehicle. These tanks are specifically designed to maximize water transport capacity based on the brand and model of the vehicle. Featuring a sturdy square design, built-in side-surge stabilizers, and a baffling system, the tanks ensure secure transportation of up to 60,000 gallons of water with minimal churning.
Efficient Water Spraying Capabilities
Equipped with user-friendly controls, HiVol Water Tanks allow you to spray the entire width of a haul road in a single pass. The optional remote-controlled water cannon and rear-mounted spray heads can be operated using individual in-cab analog controls. The independent functioning of the horizontal spray heads enables simultaneous operation of any or all of them. The remote-controlled water cannons have a range of up to 200 feet, offering extensive coverage.
Easy Maintenance and Accessibility
Philippi-Hagenbuch has prioritized easy maintenance and accessibility in the design of HiVol Water Tanks. Full-sized external and internal access doors, along with top access points, ensure convenient servicing. The internal doors feature rust-resistant pivots, allowing for unobstructed airflow and daylight within the tank. The flat top of the tank facilitates safe access for staff when maintenance or inspection is required.
Options for Challenging Conditions
To address specific environmental conditions, Philippi-Hagenbuch offers additional options for HiVol Water Tanks. For severely acidic environments, tanks can be specified with Hardox HiAce acidic-resistant steel or corrosion-resistant Hardox 450 steel. In cold weather conditions, an insulated water tank with optional heating is available to withstand temperatures as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit.
Unmatched Durability and Longevity
According to Josh Swank, vice president of sales and advertising at Philippi-Hagenbuch, their water tanks have proven their resilience over more than 23 years in the market. These tanks are constructed with superior steel that resists rust, corrosion, and degradation. Unlike many other water tanks on the market that typically last 5-7 years, Philippi-Hagenbuch’s tanks have demonstrated exceptional durability, with the initial tanks still in use today on various jobsites.
