A 2,000 gallon double wall chemical tank at 1.9 specific gravity
The Snyder 5570100N45 is a double wall chemical storage tank: a 2,000 gallon white high density linear polyethylene primary rated for a specific gravity of 1.9, or 31,692 pounds of contents against 16,680 for water, standing inside its own secondary containment in a shell 102 inches across and 103 inches tall, weighing 1,180 pounds. The low, wide shape keeps the 18 inch manway within a short step of the floor, and the double wall carries the containment a spill plan asks for inside the tank's own footprint, for a plant that takes small truck deliveries of caustic, ferric or acid and cannot pour a berm. It ships as oversize freight.

Containment that ships on the truck
A single wall tank of a regulated liquid has to stand inside a berm sized to it, and at 2,000 gallons that is a concrete basin, a sump, a drain valve that must stay closed, and a rain problem. With the containment inside the outer shell, the 102 inch footprint is the whole footprint and the tank can stand inside an occupied building where a spill must never reach a floor drain; the SPCC 40 CFR 112 compliance walkthrough explains which spill-plan cases a double wall tank satisfies by itself. The rated chemistry for the resin is listed below; check the liquid at its concentration in the chemical compatibility database, because weight rating and chemical resistance are separate properties. The tank sizing calculator matches the volume to feed rate and delivery interval, and the tank sizing guide covers the reserve.
The sizes beside it
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5570100N45 (this tank, 1.9 SG) | 2,000 | 102 x 103 in | 1,180 lb |
| 5990302N52 (1.9 SG) | 1,500 | 93 x 77 in | 930 lb |
| 5590100N43 (1.5 SG) | 3,000 | 102 x 142 in | 1,840 lb |
The 5990302N52 is the 1,500 gallon double wall in the same grade, 26 inches shorter on a base 9 inches narrower, for a lower ceiling; the 5590100N43 is the 3,000 gallon double wall on this same 102 inch base at 142 inches, in the 1.5 grade for coagulants and brines.

Openings and the interstice
- Access: 18 inch manway on the primary, a short step up; vent outside on caustic and acid service, fill through a dip tube, and size the vent for a delivery truck's unload rate.
- Outlet: one penetration through both walls, the transition on its own support; order the fitting in the material the chemical calls for.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
There are two levels to watch: the primary, with a sender chosen for the chemical, and the space between the walls, which serves as the leak alarm and gets a switch, a shift check at the port, and a weekly log entry. A wet interstice is a failed primary, and the tank is drained the same day. Keep the outer shell clear: nothing leaned on it, nothing bolted through it, nothing stored in the space. Full, the tank loads a 102 inch circle to 31,692 pounds at the rating, and a low, wide tank puts it there without a lever arm: a slab in full contact under the whole floor.
Receiving a delivery
A delivery truck's pump can deliver faster than the manway vent can breathe, so the vent is sized for the unload rate or the fill goes through a dedicated top bulkhead with its own vent line. A fill pipe to the floor keeps caustic or coagulant from free-falling and foaming. The first delivery into a new tank is watched from start to finish, with the slab edge, the outlet fitting and the interstitial port checked as the level climbs, and each delivery after it is logged with its date and strength.
Typical duty
Caustic, coagulant and acid storage at small water and wastewater plants that cannot build a berm, chemical storage inside occupied buildings with a low ceiling, and any regulated liquid at two-thousand-gallon scale at a site an inspector visits. One chemical to a tank, a label both inspectors can read, and the manway kept closed against vapor loss.

Freight to your ZIP
At 102 inches across the 5570100N45 is oversize freight (NMFC 156600) on a flatbed at a lane rate; the freight cost estimator gives the flatbed number for your ZIP, and the listed price is before freight. A forklift with long forks sets 1,180 pounds on the slab. Water-test the primary and hold it long enough to prove the interstice stays dry, then drain and dry the tank before the first delivery. A photo of the tank on its pad, full, on day one is worth keeping; it is the baseline every later inspection is compared against.
