Chemical inductor tanks are engineered to dissolve dry or concentrated liquid chemicals into water before spray application — the cone-bottom geometry and recirculation port create a vortex that fully dissolves dry products (granular fertilizer, wettable powders, dry herbicides) without clumping or undissolved fines reaching the spray boom. Catalog covers Norwesco, Snyder Industries, Chem-Tainer, Enduraplas, and Bushman chemical-inductor SKUs.

Compliance & Standards
Typically rotomolded to ASTM D1998; FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 resin compliance varies by model (see each product's Specifications). Inductor tanks are sub-class of cone-bottom — typically 15°, 22.5°, or 30° cone angle with a centerline outlet and a recirculation/return port near the top. Always verify resin compatibility against your dry or concentrate chemistry via the Chemical Compatibility Guide.
Engineering & Selection
Inductor operation depends on three elements working together. (1) Cone angle drives circulation velocity — steeper cone (30°+) is required for heavier dry products that settle. (2) Recirculation flow from a transfer pump creates the dissolution vortex — without it, the inductor is just a small cone-bottom tank. Match pump flow rate to tank diameter (typical 20–40 GPM for 35–55 gallon inductors). (3) Top fill port is wide-mouth to accept dry-product addition; verify lid clearance for your bag or jug size.
Freight & Delivery
Tanks ship LTL motor freight from the closest stocking warehouse to your delivery ZIP. Typical transit 5–10 business days. Liftgate available at delivery (per-shipment fee). Always inspect at delivery and note damage on the bill of lading before signing — that is the carrier claim trigger. Bulk-order consolidation reduces per-tank freight 25–40%.
