Snyder Industries 120 Gallon XLPE Chemical Feed Station Tank

In the chemical room

The footprint is 56 by 43 inches on a level, continuous, finished surface: a coated slab, a chemical room floor or the deck of a bund sized to the largest vessel inside it. The thing to check on this version is the top: at 67 inches the lid is above eye level for most people, so a fill from a drum pump or a delivery hose is done with the hose pulled up and over, and a short platform makes a manual top-up safer. Keep clearance in front for the drum or the tote that feeds it and on the pump side for a hand and a wrench. Our guide to level gauge selection for chemical service helps pick how the level will be read, and the label and signage compliance guide covers the markings the inspectors look for.

What goes in it

Cross-linked polyethylene is the resin usually specified when the chemical is at the aggressive end of what polyethylene handles, which is why this version exists alongside the standard resin one. Check the liquid in our chemical compatibility guide; the entries for ferric chloride, ferric sulfate, aluminum sulfate, potassium hydroxide and hydrofluosilicic acid are the ones feed station buyers read. The 1.9 rating covers the dense solutions; keep contents under 120 F. Our chemical sampling protocol covers drawing a sample that means something. For fuel or oil under a spill plan this single wall tank is the wrong tool; see the Snyder Captor containment comparison.

Openings and fittings, and what to confirm

1. Lid. 14 inches on top, enough for a drum pump wand, a fill hose and a level probe together.
2. Outlet and suction. No outlet fitting is listed on this page. Tell us the pump's suction size and whether you want a bottom bulkhead or a suction lance, and we confirm what Snyder supplies on this part number before it ships. The drawing under Technical Drawing shows the openings.
3. What is under it. This page lists the tank's overall height and weight and nothing about a stand. Tell us whether the pump needs the tank bottom raised, and we will confirm exactly what ships under part 5700104CFWS-42 before you order.

Shipping and receiving

It ships LTL from Snyder's plant at Marked Tree, Arkansas, 56 by 43 by 67 inches and 166 lb on the pallet. A pallet jack handles it at a dock; ask for a lift gate at a plant without one. The listed price is before freight; the freight cost estimator gives the lane cost to your ZIP. At the tailgate, check 5700104CFWS-42 on the bill of lading, look over the lid, the openings and whatever is under the tank, and fill it with water the first time.
