ALLENTECH PONTOON TYPE INTERNAL FLOATING ROOFS

Structure on large diameter IFR

Completed large diameter IFR

Custom designed and completely pre-fabricated for


each application, our Pontoon Type Internal Floating
Roof (IFR) is the model for cost-effective, efficient and
long-lasting Internal Floating Roofs. Pontoons are
arranged on a tightly spaced grid to provide excellent
distribution of buoyancy. The vapor integrity of the IFR is
ensured by our unique sheet clamping system. The
strong, extruded and rolled perimeter section allows us
to install primary shoe seals and secondary seals without the need for additional stiffening. Available in all
aluminum, all stainless steel or hybrid aluminum/stainless steel as required.

IFR under construction

Pontoons are manufactured to the highest quality


standards using only certified welders and ASME
qualified weld procedures. Our end caps are stronger
than the pontoons themselves, eliminating fears of end
cap failures, proven through 20 years of service.

Attention to details such as


factory fabricated column
seals sets us apart.

Our patented, welded module Aluminum HC Full


Contact IFR is designed for owners who prefer the benefits of the full contact aluminum floating roof concept.
ALLENTECH's welded module design eliminates costly
failures and product compatibility concerns associated
with an exposed adhesive design. Factory-installed test
ports allow future field-testing of each module so that the
tank can be certified gas free without concern that dangerous vapors or product may be trapped inside the
module.

ALLENTECH Aluminum HC Full Contact IFRs


have been designed around strength and safety,
eliminating concerns of leaking modules and
product entrapment associated with other
designs.

No exposed failure prone adhesives


Module skins are more than 2-1/2 times the API required
minimum thickness to reduce corrosion effects and
increase strength

Each module is tested and certified leak free prior to


shipment

ALLENTECH's standard Aluminum HC Full Contact IFRs


have enough strength and buoyancy to be fitted with
single or double shoe seals

Our standard HC IFR can support 750 pounds on the


outer edge while floating with buoyancy to spare

CABLE SUSPENSION SYSTEMS

ALLENTECH has developed a cable


suspension system that replaces legs
on aluminum floating roofs. Our cable
suspension system can be installed
on new aluminum pontoon type and
HC Full Contact IFRs. It can also be
retrofit on most existing aluminum
IFR, regardless of manufacturer.
There are no tank size limitations for
our system and it can be used on both
new and existing tanks. These systems have become the standard for
many of our customers due to the
long list of benefits that they offer.

Safety
Eliminate in-service entries since IFR setting is changed from the
fixed roof anytime the IFR is floating

Emission Loss Reduction


Without leg penetrations, emission losses are lowered by over 30%
Changing IFR Settings
Save money, time and logistical problems. The IFR setting can be
changed by one person from the fixed roof. There is no need
to hire an expensive specially trained in-service work crew.
IFR setting can be changed anytime the IFR is floating above high
pin position.

Maintenance
Bottom cleaning, inspection, repairs, and coating can be completed
faster

Flexibility
IFR settings can be placed where you want them, including a
high high position at the maximum fill level. Settings are not
limited by the length of a leg.

INTERNAL FLOATING ROOF PERIMETER SEALS


Our patented primary and secondary stainless steel shoe seals will provide years of trouble free service
and superior sealing characteristics. Materials are selected for their corrosion resistance and product
compatibility to provide a minimum design life of twenty years.

Primary Shoe Seal

Tightly spaced hoop springs on our Primary Shoe


Seal exert an almost continuous, constant force
against the tank shell
