Custom Box Type Storage Tanks for Industrial Generators

Custom Box Type Storage Tanks for Industrial Generators

In commercial and industrial environments, uninterrupted power is critical. Sayul Engineering is a premier manufacturer of custom box type storage tanks in Sri Lanka, specifically designed for the safe and efficient storage of diesel fuel used to power heavy-duty generators. Built from premium mild steel sheets, our rectangular storage solutions ensure your facility remains powered during unexpected grid outages.

Reliable Diesel Storage for Uninterrupted Power Supply

Unlike traditional cylindrical tanks, box type tanks are engineered to maximize volume within a constrained footprint. This makes them the industry standard for commercial buildings, hospitals, telecommunication towers, and manufacturing plants where backup generator rooms have limited horizontal space. Every tank we produce is rigorously tested to ensure absolute leak prevention and adherence to indoor fire and safety regulations.

Engineered for Tight Spaces and Indoor Compliance

Main Bulk Storage Tanks

Our large-capacity box tanks serve as the primary diesel reservoir for your facility. Designed to sit flush against walls or fit perfectly into designated utility corners, these mild steel tanks provide the massive fuel reserves necessary to keep industrial generators running for days at a time.

Generator Day Tanks

For multi-story facilities or massive generator setups, we fabricate highly efficient "Day Tanks." These smaller box-type tanks (commonly ranging from 500L to 1,000L) are installed directly next to the generator engine. They act as an immediate, readily available fuel source, automatically drawing diesel from the main bulk tank to ensure the generator never runs dry.

Standard and Custom Fabrication Capacities

Based on our extensive project portfolio, we regularly manufacture box-type tanks for major commercial clients across Sri Lanka. Our standard manufactured capacities include:

  • • 700 Liters (Ideal for Generator Day Tanks)
  • • 1,500 Liters
  • • 5,000 Liters
  • • 8,000 Liters
  • • 10,000 Liters Because generator rooms vary drastically in size, custom fabrication is our specialty. Send us your architectural drawings, and we will build a tank with the exact height, width, and length dimensions required for your specific site.

Key Features of Our Box Type Tanks

01

Heavy-Duty Mild Steel :

Fabricated using high-grade, thick mild steel sheets that provide exceptional durability and resistance to structural warping.

02

Space-Optimized Geometry:

The rectangular "box" design allows for a massive reduction in dead space, providing more fuel capacity per square foot of floor space.

03

Anti-Corrosive Treatment:

Each tank is treated internally and externally with industrial-grade protective coatings to prevent rust, fuel contamination, and degradation over time.

04

Secure Access & Venting:

Engineered with precision-welded manholes, secure fill points, and proper atmospheric venting systems to prevent dangerous pressure buildup.

Complete Generator Fuel Delivery Systems

Sayul Engineering offers turnkey solutions. Beyond the tank itself, we specialize in laying the interconnecting fuel pipelines between your bulk storage tank, your day tank, and the generator engine. We also supply and integrate automated electric transfer pumps and precise level monitoring systems (such as OLE sensors) so your maintenance team always knows exactly how much fuel is in reserve.

asked questions

Box type storage tanks are primarily used in industrial and commercial applications for the safe storage of diesel fuel to run backup power generators. Their rectangular shape makes them ideal for indoor utility rooms where floor space is limited.
A main tank is a large-capacity reservoir that holds the bulk of the facility's fuel. A day tank is a smaller box-type tank situated right next to the generator, which automatically pulls a daily supply of fuel from the main tank to feed the engine immediately.
We fabricate all of our box type generator tanks using heavy-duty, premium-grade mild steel sheets. They are expertly welded and treated with anti-corrosive industrial coatings for maximum longevity and safety.
Absolutely. Custom fabrication is our core expertise. We can design and manufacture a box type tank with custom height, width, and length dimensions to perfectly fit the specific footprint of your site.
Yes, we provide complete turnkey solutions. Our engineering team handles the comprehensive laying of fuel pipelines, connecting your new storage tanks directly to your generator systems securely and efficiently.
Our tanks are engineered for maximum safety, featuring rigorous leak-tested welding, secure lockable fill points, proper atmospheric pressure vents, and integration points for automated level monitoring sensors to prevent overfilling.
