Roben, Mfg, Inc. is a leading manufacturer of containment vessels, specializing in the design, fabrication, and supply of high-quality vessels that meet the most stringent safety and environmental protection standards. With our expertise and state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, we deliver reliable and efficient containment vessel solutions for various industries and applications.
What is a Containment Vessel? A containment vessel is a specially designed container that prevents the release of hazardous, valuable, or sensitive materials into the environment. These vessels provide a secure barrier to contain substances that may pose risks to safety, health, or the environment, or to protect high-value or sensitive materials from external contamination.
We utilize advanced design software and follow rigorous quality control procedures to ensure the safety and reliability of our containment vessels.
1. What is the difference between primary and secondary containment?
Primary containment is the main vessel holding the material, while secondary containment is an additional outer barrier to catch leaks or spills from the primary container.
2. How do I choose the right material for my containment vessel?
The choice depends on the chemical properties of the contained substance, operating conditions, and regulatory requirements. Factors include chemical compatibility, temperature, pressure, and structural needs.
3. What safety features are typically included in containment vessels?
Common safety features include leak detection systems, pressure relief devices, level indicators, and sometimes fire suppression systems for flammable materials.
4. How often should containment vessels be inspected?
Inspection frequency depends on the type of material contained, vessel construction, and regulatory requirements. Generally, visual inspections are recommended regularly, with more thorough inspections annually or as mandated by regulations.
5. Can containment vessels be used for transportation of hazardous materials?
Some containment vessels are designed for transportation and must meet specific regulations such as UN packaging requirements. Not all containment vessels are suitable for transport.
6. What is the typical lifespan of a containment vessel?
The lifespan varies depending on the material of construction, the substance contained, and maintenance practices. With proper care, many containment vessels can last 15-30 years or more.
7. How are containment vessels cleaned and decontaminated?
Cleaning methods depend on the vessel material and the contained substance. They may include chemical cleaning, high-pressure washing, or specialized decontamination procedures for hazardous materials.
8. What regulations govern the use of containment vessels?
Regulations vary by industry and location but often include EPA standards, OSHA requirements, DOT regulations for transportable vessels, and industry-specific standards.
9. Can containment vessels be custom designed for unique applications?
Yes, many manufacturers, including Roben, Mfg, Inc., offer custom design services to meet specific containment needs and unique application requirements.
10. How do containment vessels handle pressure changes or extreme temperatures?
Containment vessels can be designed with pressure relief systems, insulation, or temperature control features to manage pressure changes and extreme temperatures, depending on the specific application requirements.
