5,200-gallon black storage tank built for safe potable water storage. Manufactured by Enduraplas from virgin linear polyethylene (HDPE) rated to handle liquids up to 9.2 pounds per gallon. FDA approved for contact with potable water, ensuring safe storage for drinking water and food-grade liquids.
The 5200 Gallon Black Vertical Water Storage Tank is designed for municipal water systems, large-scale agricultural operations, and industrial facilities requiring bulk storage capacity. At 5,200 gallons, this is a facility-scale tank built for operations that measure liquid consumption in thousands of gallons per day. It is the anchor of safe potable water storage systems for municipalities, large farms, and industrial plants.
Constructed from virgin linear polyethylene (HDPE) using a single-piece rotational molding process that eliminates seams, weld lines, and potential leak points. With a 1.1 specific gravity rating, this tank handles liquids up to 9.2 pounds per gallon, which covers water and most common liquid storage applications. UV-resistant black pigmentation provides maximum outdoor durability and inhibits algae growth in stored liquids. Maximum operating temperature is 120° F / 48° C, with UV stabilizers compounded directly into the resin for outdoor service life.
This tank measures 164 inches tall with a 100-inch diameter, requiring 54.5 square feet of level ground. Empty weight is 1000 pounds. At full capacity with a 1.1 SG liquid, expect approximately 48,705 pounds on the foundation. Requires an engineered reinforced concrete foundation designed by a structural professional for the full loaded weight. Large tanks require professional installation. Ensure the pad is level within 1 inch across the full diameter and that all piping connections allow for thermal expansion.
Factory-installed fittings include a 3" PP Female NPT Bulkhead Fitting outlet and a 2" PP Female NPT Bulkhead Fitting inlet, both with NPT threading for direct connection to standard schedule 40 or schedule 80 PVC, polypropylene, or stainless steel plumbing. The 16" Threaded Vented Manway lid opening provides ample access for interior inspection, cleaning, and installation of float switches, level sensors, or submersible pumps. Install schedule 80 PVC or stainless steel piping on all 3" NPT connections. Full-port ball valves, expansion loops for thermal movement, and proper pipe support are essential at this scale.
