Header Tank

M5HT Gen Fuel Flow-Thru Header Tank

Generator Header Tanks for In-Building or Rooftop Applications

The M5HT is designed as a flow-thru Header Tank to provide limited quantity fuel storage for generator start and run when located in buildings or roof-tops.   The system meets code requirements for NYC and other urban environments. Controls interface with generator systems with High, Low, Leak Contacts or optional Modbus / BACnet connectivity.

Safe Fuel Storage Inside Buildings:

The M5HT is designed as a flow-thru Header Tank to provide limited quantity fuel storage for generator start and run when located in buildings or roof-tops.   The system meets code requirements for NYC and other urban environments. Controls interface with generator systems with High, Low, Leak Contacts or optional Modbus / BACnet connectivity.

Reliable Refill Systems: 

Day Tanks are designed and furnished with pre-assembled and tested fuel transfer equipment and controls. Inlet control valves, transfer pumps, level sensors, leak sensors, and other equipment are all monitored and controlled by the Earthsafe C1 or C8 control panels.

Integrated Building Management Systems:

Earthsafe advanced controllers allow for the communication of vital day tank operating information to other building systems. These systems may include Building Automation Systems, generator controls, switchgear and other power controls, security and fire alarm systems.

Readily Adaptable for Special Operation: 

Earthsafe day tanks can be readily adapated for special operation characteristics such as: dual inlet valves, monitored valve positions, high level / overflow pumping, emergency evacuation, auto-commissioning, fluid metering, high temperature control.
