�-4 <br />y6ri.Fu <br />i.Mfllp "S -11-11L J <br />` I <br />17 <br />Stringent Perfcrmanca Standards <br />Every standard Xerxes doubie-wall tank is vacuum tested at <br />the factory to 11.5' of mercury, which exceeds the U.L <br />requirment. In addition, each Xerxes tank is subjected to a <br />5 psig air/soap test, ultrasonic -thickness verification and a <br />barcol-hardness test. Xerxes' standards meet or exceed those <br />required by Underwriters Laboratories and ensure that every <br />Xerxes tank is a superior investment. <br />Unique Fiberglass Design <br />and Construction <br />Xerxes double-wall tanks are <br />highly engineered and <br />manufactured with premium <br />resin and glass, and feature a <br />unique integral -rib design. <br />Like fluting in corrugated board, the integral ribs in Xerxes <br />fiberglass tanks add strength. The integral ribs and tanks are <br />manufactured simultaneously, thus providing an extremely <br />strong and durable product. <br />Alcohol Fuels Compatible <br />Afl Xerxes double-wall tanks are manufactured with <br />premium -resin and glass -fiber reinforcement formulated to <br />be compatible with petroleum products, alcohols and <br />alcohol -gasoline mixtures. <br />Internal and External <br />Corrosion Protection <br />Fiberglass tanks are made of corrosion -resistant materials <br />and — unlike steel tanks — never rust. They require no <br />anodes or any type of cathodic protection and — unlike steel <br />tanks — are maintenance -free. While coating a steel tank <br />and adding anodes to the outside of it can sometimes delay <br />the corrosion process, it does not change steel's natural <br />tendency to rust. Even properly working cathodic protec- <br />tion does not guard against intemal corrosion. <br />
