Snyder Industries 2000 Gallon HDPE Vertical Liquid Storage Tank with ASTM Certification

Low, wide, certified

A tank's specific gravity rating is the density of the heaviest liquid its wall is sized to hold for its service life, and most of what a small plant stores sits well under a 1.35 wall, so this grade carries water, brine and hypochlorite as delivered with margin. The certificate cites ASTM D1998, and what it certifies is the wall; the HDPE tank wall thickness guide explains the sizing logic and why the headspace is where a wall ages. A 2,000 gallon tank moves a lot of air as it fills and empties, so the vent is sized for the pump-out and fill rates; the atmospheric vent capacity guide runs the API 2000 numbers. Full, it puts 23,352 pounds on a 96 inch circle at the rating, which a compacted gravel pad or a slab in full contact carries, and the wide base sits low enough that no strap is needed. The tank sizing calculator tells you whether 2,000 gallons covers the draw, and the tank sizing guide covers days of supply.

Snyder's 1,900 to 2,500 gallon verticals

The 5050000 tanks hold the same 2,000 gallons on a 90 inch base 4 inches taller, the N39 in this same 1.35 wall, the N43 and N45 in the certified 1.5 and 1.9 walls, the C26 in the general grade. The 1780200N40 stands 1,900 gallons on a 72 inch base in cross-linked resin for a narrow corner, and the 5090000C26 is the 2,500 gallon tank on a 90 inch base at 107 inches.

Outlet and manway

• Access: 18 inch threaded, vented manway; hose or truck fill through a dip tube; vent outdoors on a fuming liquid.
• Outlet: tell us the liquid when ordering and the bulkhead fitting is matched to it; flex between the bulkhead and hard pipe, and a valve braced off the pad so the fitting carries no pipe weight.
• Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
• Listing: ASTM certification.

The white wall shows the level in daylight; a float switch for low level protects a pump, and the low shape keeps the suction flooded to the last few inches. On hypochlorite, shade the tank and buy at short turnover. Where it freezes, insulate or drain the outlet valve and the first length of pipe; the body takes ice from the top down without harm.

Who buys this tank

Well storage under a low roof, hypochlorite or brine at a small plant that needs the certification on file, a rain cistern beside a barn, and one cell of a small fire reserve of the kind the fire-water reservoir design guide describes, where the low center of gravity counts. One liquid per tank, labeled.

Delivery day

The 5050300N39 ships palletized as LTL freight (NMFC 156600-01) at a class rate; the freight cost estimator shows it for your ZIP, and the listed price is before freight. A forklift with long forks or four people roll 380 pounds onto the pad, and at 96 inches across it needs a gate, not a door. Fill to the manway, hold, inspect the outlet fitting, and keep the certificate where the project file lives. Keep the delivery paperwork with the tank; the serial number on the shell is what a warranty claim starts from.
