The Snyder Industries 200 Gallon XLPE Chemical Feed Station Tank is a cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) vessel rated to 1.9 specific gravity, built for dosing and bulk storage of dense liquid chemicals where standard 1.5 SG tanks fall short. It holds 200 gallons in a low-profile, footprint-heavy body that is 57 inches tall on a 62 x 76 inch base, so feed-station and day-tank installs get real capacity without a tall, tippy profile. If you searched for a 200 gallon XLPE chemical tank, this is the Snyder unit engineered for the heavier chemistries below.
Will it work for your application
Match the contents to the rating before you buy. Filled with water at SG 1.0 this tank carries roughly 1,668 lb; at its maximum rated contents it carries up to 3,169 lb, which is the SG 1.9 ceiling the XLPE wall is engineered to. Size your containment pad and anchoring for that 3,169 lb rated-contents load on the 62 x 76 footprint, not the 1,668 lb water figure. Use the Tank Sizing Calculator and the Tank Sizing Guide to confirm your liquid's specific gravity stays at or below 1.9 at your fill volume, and check the 57 x 62 x 76 inch envelope against your pad and any secondary containment basin before the tank ships. See the technical drawing on this page for fitting locations and dimensional callouts.
Chemical compatibility
This is an XLPE tank rated to 1.9 specific gravity. Fitting and gasket material must be selected per chemical, not just per tank. Compatible chemistries listed in our Chemical Compatibility Database include: Acetic Acid 60% (PP/PVC fittings, EPDM gasket), Aluminum Sulfate 50% (PVC, EPDM), Calcium Chloride 40% (PVC, EPDM), DEF 32.5% (316SS fittings, EPDM gasket), Ethylene Glycol 100% (PVC, EPDM), Ferric Chloride 50% (PVC, EPDM), Ferric Sulfate 60% (PVC, EPDM), Ferrous Sulfate 20% (PVC, EPDM), Hydrofluosilicic Acid 26% (PP/PVC fittings, Viton gasket), Magnesium Chloride 30% (PVC, EPDM), Polyaluminum Chloride (PVC, EPDM), Potassium Carbonate 50% (PVC, EPDM), Potassium Hydroxide saturated (PVC, EPDM), Propylene Glycol (PP/316SS fittings, EPDM gasket), Sodium Carbonate 30% (PVC, EPDM), Sodium Thiosulfate 40% (PVC, EPDM), Urea Solution 50% (PP/PVC fittings, EPDM gasket), and Ozonated Water up to 10 PPM (PVC, EPDM). Watch where the material changes from the PVC/EPDM default: Hydrofluosilicic Acid needs a Viton gasket, while DEF and Propylene Glycol call for 316SS-bearing fitting packages. Always confirm compatibility at your exact concentration and temperature, since these ratings are concentration- and temperature-specific. Full ratings live in our Chemical Compatibility Database — see the per-chemical pages for Acetic Acid, DEF, Ferric Chloride, Hydrofluosilicic Acid, Potassium Hydroxide, Urea Solution, and the rest of the list.
The mistake to avoid
The error that ruins a tank like this is treating the SG rating as the only check. The 1.9 rating tells you the wall can carry a dense liquid, but it says nothing about chemical attack — and nothing about your fittings. The fittings and gaskets are where most chemical-feed failures start: install a Viton gasket on a Hydrofluosilicic Acid line, specify 316SS on DEF and Propylene Glycol service, and match the gasket to the chemistry shown above. Before you order, settle your monitoring and labeling approach too — review our guides on level-gauge selection for chemical service, NFPA 704 and GHS labeling compliance, and chemical sampling protocol. If secondary containment matters for your install, the Snyder Captor Plus 110% containment comparison is worth reading first.
