Snyder Industries 1900 Gallon HDPE Vertical Liquid Storage Tank with ASTM Certification

Certified, tall and narrow

The certification is against ASTM D1998, the standard rotationally molded polyethylene tanks are specified to, and the way a tank meets it is in the wall; the HDPE tank wall thickness guide sets out how D1998 sizes a wall and why the headspace, not the liquid side, is where failures start. A 72 inch base fits where the 86 and 90 inch tanks of this volume will not, and 119 inches of column keeps a pump suction flooded and gives a transfer line real head; the cost is reach and wind, so the empty tank is strapped. Full, it loads a 72 inch circle to 23,769 pounds at the rating: a slab in full contact under the whole floor, sized by the method in the concrete pad sizing guide. Look up the density of the liquid at the concentration you buy; under 1.5, this is the right wall. The tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide settle the volume.

The 72 x 119 inch mold and the low alternatives

The N42 is cross-linked polyethylene for oxidizers and warm liquids, 75 pounds heavier; the N46 is another resin option at this tank's weight. The 32118 lays 1,600 gallons under a six foot ceiling on an 86 inch base at the same 1.5 rating, 48 inches shorter, and the 5050000C26 puts 2,000 gallons on a 90 inch base at 88 inches. Tall when the floor decides, low when the ceiling does.

Connections

• Access: 18 inch threaded, vented manway, 119 inches up; a step-ladder reach.
• Outlet: tell us the liquid when ordering and the bulkhead fitting is matched to it; a flexible transition, an expansion joint, and a valve supported off the floor.
• Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
• Listing: ASTM certification.

A white tank shows its level in daylight; in a pump room, a hydrostatic sender at the outlet. Strap the empty tank with two bands over the top to anchors in the slab, fill through a dip tube so dense liquid does not splash the lid, and keep the vent clear so a fast draw cannot pull a vacuum on the wall.

What it holds in practice

Brine at a softener plant, liquid fertilizer at a co-op, dilute treatment chemicals in a narrow chemical room that needs the certification on file, and water where a heavier wall is wanted outdoors; with water in it, one unit of the fire reserve the fire-water reservoir design guide describes. In a freezing climate a solution expands against a wall not designed for ice; house the tank or keep it above freezing.

Getting it to the pad

At 119 inches long on the deck the 1780200N43 ships as oversize freight (NMFC 156600) at a lane rate; the freight cost estimator prices it for your ZIP, and the listed price is before freight. A liftgate and two people handle 445 pounds. Strap it before it is filled, water-fill to the manway with a hold, check the outlet fitting after the hold, and keep the certification with the project file. Once it is full and holding, leave it alone for a day before the plumbing goes on; a settled tank is a quiet one.
