A 1720 gallon 15 degree cone bottom tank for big volume under a low roof
The Norwesco 1720 gallon 15 degree cone bottom tank, part number 44337, is a white polyethylene tank 91 inches in diameter and 78 inches tall, weighing 274 lb empty. It is the largest of Norwesco's 91 inch, 15 degree cones that still stands under six and a half feet: a shallow cone that drains a free flowing liquid completely while keeping the tank low. It comes with a 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting at the point of the cone and a 16 inch threaded vented manway on top. The rating is 1.5 specific gravity, 12.52 lb per gallon. Norwesco states the resin is FDA compliant, the service limit is 120 F, and the warranty is 3 years. It needs Norwesco's stand, part number 64090, sold separately. For liquids heavier than 1.5 times water, the same tank is made at a 1.9 rating as the 1720 gallon 15 degree heavy duty cone bottom tank in blue.

Where a 15 degree cone belongs
Fertilizer and brine storage, treatment chemical make-up and any job where the liquid flows freely, the tank should be empty between uses, and the ceiling is the constraint. A shallow cone is slow on thick liquids and does not clear settled solids the way a steep cone does; if your batches drop solids, step to a 30 degree cone such as the 2500 gallon 30 degree cone bottom tank and accept the height. Our buyer's guide to 15, 30 and 45 degree cones lays the trade out, and the 1720 gallon 15 degree cone bottom tank buyer's guide covers this tank in detail.
What goes in it
Water, liquid fertilizer and the common chemicals polyethylene handles, up to 1.5 times the weight of water and under 120 F. Norwesco's 1.9 rated heavy duty cones, including the 1600 gallon light blue heavy duty cone bottom tank, are the answer for heavier liquids. Check the liquid in the chemical compatibility guide first; urea solution, calcium chloride, sodium hypochlorite, magnesium chloride and sulfuric acid are the entries buyers of this size ask about. Use the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide for the volume.
Openings, fittings and the stand
- Outlet. A 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting at the point of the cone. With a full tank above it the fitting sees real head, so fit the valve before the tank goes into the stand and support the first length of pipe on its own.
- Manway. A 16 inch threaded vented manway: fill, float, mixer bracket, and a hand and a brush for cleaning.
- Stand. Norwesco's stand 64090 serves the 91 inch, 15 degree family. Its height sets what fits under the outlet; measure the valve, pump or drum before you order.
- Floor. A 91 inch circle, flat, level and continuous, with no drain or joint under the stand feet.
- Drawing. Norwesco's drawing for this tank, linked under Technical Drawing on this page, shows the outlet and manway positions.
