Refurbishment

After years in dedicated service, a tank container can get a little (or a lot) "worn out". CuCo can refurbish containers to prolong their useful life. The following items can make a well-used container look and work like new.

paint
insulation and cladding
replacing frame members
new valves and gaskets
walkways

view of tanks

CuCo is a full service tank design, inspection, refurbishment, and modification resource- yet another difference between CuCo and most tank manufactures are the years of experience.

Service for tank containers is available at CuCo of Texas in Pasadena, TX.

Periodic Inspection

Modifications

CuCo can perform periodic inspection on tank containers. Tank containers and portable tanks approved by IMDG and/or US DOT require testing every 2½ years.

The first periodic inspection must take place 2½ years from the date of the original hydrostatic test. The consecutive inspections must occur 2½ years from the date of the previous inspection. These inspections must be done within 3 months before or after the date the tank is due for inspection. The 2½ year inspection consists of an air test and an internal and external examination of the tank and frame. The 5 year inspection also includes a hydrostatic test of the tank and steam/cooling channels.

All tests are witnessed by an authorized inspector for an approval agency (i.e. ABS, BV or Lloyd's Register.)

When items need to be added or removed from a container to accommodate a different cargo or to service a new facility, CuCo can make these changes.

insulation and cladding
steam/cooling channels
electrical refrigeration systems
electrical heating systems
additional nozzles and valves
linings
handrails
hose boxes
