The Oil Tank Water Absorber is a highly regarded piece of kit that acts as a preventative measure in keeping your fuel free of contaminants caused by condensation. Water can enter the heating system instead of the fuel and cause damage to the burner or boiler; IT can increase the growth of bacteria and cause tank sludge; it will rapidly increase rusting of a metal tank and metal components within a heating system; and it can freeze in the tank and cause the fuel to degrade.
The Key Features of The Oil Tank Water Absorber
Impervious to All Fuel Types
It is impervious to petrol, diesel, oil, and biofuel. It absorbs water, and water only.
Maintenance and Replacement
Dependent on the size (350ml, 489ml or 1.59L), it’s recommended that they are checked once a week and replaced at least every three months.
Durability and Reliability
The Nylon bladder expands once the water is absorbed, filling the mesh container. It contains super absorbent polymers which soak up any water but is impervious to fuel. It has a 3 month lifespan (dependent on volume of water inside the tank).
The Applications of The Oil Tank Water Absorber
Residential and Commercial Use
Available in three different sizes, meaning you can ensure you have the right size for your tank. They have been used for residential tanks, commercial tanks and storage for agricultural vehicles.
Versatility
Compatible with all oil and fuel types, these absorbers can be used universally.
The Benefits of The Oil Tank Water Absorber
Absolute Ease of Use
Because they are weighted, they just need to be dropped into the tank, attached to the 3m cord (the smaller size comes with a 2.2m cord), then pulled out and checked once a week (recommended).
Diesel Bugs
Water causes the growth of bacteria, commonly called “Diesel Bugs”. These “Bugs” reproduce and cause machinery damage and failure, which is costly and time consuming to fix. The Oil Tank Water Absorber has a clever design in that it attracts water to absorb it, lowering the risk of “Diesel Bugs” reproducing.
In conclusion
The Oil Tank Water Absorber is a universally applicable, reliable piece of equipment that can prevent costly damage to machinery. It works to ensure the efficient flow of all types of oil and maintains the integrity of oil tanks by reducing the risk of rust.
