Tanks & Systems

AFLO Tanks & Systems

AFLO’s Tanks & Systems range covers end-to-end storage and dispensing for fuel, oil and DEF, built for fleets, agriculture, construction, civil and mining. Choose from self-bunded fuel tanks (double-walled) and compact cube tanks for diesel, through to poly refuellers for mobile top-ups, waste oil tanks, and AdBlue (DEF) systems. Complete your setup with diesel transfer pumps (12/24/240V), 10-micron filtration with water separation, digital flow meters, automatic tank gauges/high-level alarms, diesel hose reels and nozzles, and fuel management systems for accurate, auditable control.

What’s in the range

• Bulk Diesel Tanks: self-bunded fuel tanks, cube tanks, containerised units, farm and poly refuellers (single-skin and self-bunded).
• Oil & Lubricant Storage: bunded oil tanks, bench/uni tanks, bulk oil containers and clean dispensing hardware.
• AdBlue (DEF) Systems: dedicated DEF tanks, pumps, hoses and nozzles with compatible seals and plastics.
• Pumps & Dispensing: diesel, petrol and oil transfer pumps; grease pumps and guns; automatic fuel nozzles; metering nozzles.
• Meters, Gauging & Monitoring: digital fuel flow meters, mechanical meters, automatic tank gauges, high-level alarms, remote tank monitoring.
• Filtration & Water Separation: particulate and water-separating elements, bulk fuel filtration, aviation-grade options.
• Hose Reels & Hoses: diesel hose reels, industrial hose reels, air/oxy reels, fuel and oil-resistant hose assemblies.
• Drum Pumps & Handling: hand, pneumatic and electric drum pumps for diesel, oil and chemicals; trolleys/dollies and drum bunding.
• Spill Control & Bunding: steel and poly bunds, spill pallets, absorbents and site containment.
• Mobile Tanks & Trailers: portable and trailer-mounted solutions for field refuelling.
• Workshop Solutions: benches, mechanical workshop equipment, compressed air lines and exhaust extraction systems.

How to choose (quick guide)

• Fluid & compliance: match the tank to the fluid (Diesel, Oil, DEF). Use self-bunded (double-walled) for simpler approvals and spill control; use single-skin only where external bunding is provided.

• Capacity & duty cycle: size to weekly consumption and delivery frequency; plan for peak refuelling windows.

• Pumping power: 12/24V for vehicles and remote sites; 240V for depots; high-flow for plant and multi-truck turnarounds.

• Fuel quality: specify 10 μm filtration with water separation from day one.

• Measurement & control: add digital meters, automatic tank gauges/high-level alarms and fuel management systems for traceability and audit.

FAQs

What is a self-bunded tank?
A self-bunded tank is a double-walled tank with an integrated outer bund that contains leaks or overfill, reducing environmental risk and simplifying compliance.

Can I store Diesel and AdBlue (DEF) in the same system?
Yes—use a combo unit with segregated compartments and DEF-compatible components to prevent contamination.

When should I choose single-skin over self-bunded?
Use single-skin only in controlled areas with compliant external bunding. Self-bunded generally simplifies installs and spill management.

Which pump type do I need?
Choose 12/24V for vehicles/mobile setups, 240V for depots, and high-flow where you’re refuelling plant or multiple trucks back-to-back. Match nozzles and hose reels to the duty cycle.

What should I add to a new tank?
Typical add-ons include 10 μm filtration with water separation, a digital flow meter, automatic tank gauge/high-level alarm, diesel hose reel, and a fuel management system for user/vehicle tracking.

Do these systems help with Australian compliance?
They’re designed to support common requirements (e.g., AS1940 guidance). Always confirm site-specific obligations before installation.
