A 2000 gallon Captor double wall tank Snyder names for sodium hypochlorite
Part number 5570000N52 is Snyder Industries' 2000 gallon Captor double wall tank in opaque white, the version Snyder names for sodium hypochlorite (UV) service. Captor is Snyder's name for a tank moulded inside a second wall, so a leak from the inner tank stays inside the outer one instead of reaching the floor. It is 102 inches in diameter and 103 inches tall, weighs 900 lb empty, and has an 18 inch threaded vented manway on top. The wall is HDLPE, Snyder resin number 880059, rated for liquids up to 1.9 specific gravity with a service limit of 120 F (48 C). Snyder backs it with a 3 year warranty. 2,000 gallons of water weighs 16,680 lb; at the full 1.9 rating the contents can reach 31,692 lb.

A low, wide bleach tank with its own containment
At 103 inches tall on a 102 inch base, this tank is about as wide as it is high. That shape is what a lot of chemical rooms need: it fits under a lower ceiling, the manway is reachable from a short platform, and the fill and level instruments stay at a height someone can service. Two thousand gallons is the size where a site moves from totes to bulk deliveries of hypochlorite, whether that is a water system, a pool and aquatics operation, a food plant's sanitation programme or a wastewater works. Snyder's name for this version is the sodium hypochlorite (UV) Captor, and we repeat that name and nothing more: no concentration and no UV rating beyond it. The opaque white wall keeps light off the contents, and the 120 F limit matters because hypochlorite loses strength faster as it warms. The 1.9 rating is more than bleach needs; it belongs to the wall, not the product. If it is not bleach, check the liquid in our chemical compatibility guide and tell us the strength.
The pad, the volume and the paperwork
Design the pad for the filled tank, not the 900 lb that comes off the truck. The full 102 inch circle needs a flat, continuous, level surface; our concrete pad sizing guide for above ground polyethylene tanks shows where a standard slab ends and an engineer's drawing begins. The volume you can use is less than the nameplate once expansion and freeboard are allowed for; the Captor freeboard sizing guide works the real figure against your delivery size. Where the containment is there for a spill plan, the Captor SPCC compliance walkthrough goes through the requirements in order.
What to confirm before you buy
- Manway. An 18 inch threaded vented manway on top of the inner tank, wide enough for a fill hose, a level sensor and an inspection.
- Outlet, fill and vent. Our page lists the manway, not the other fittings. Tell us where the draw-off, fill connection and vent go and we will confirm with Snyder what the tank ships with.
- Drawing. Snyder's drawing for this tank is linked under Technical Drawing on this page, with the containment geometry for your layout.
Other 2000 gallon Captors and the sizes either side
The 2000 gallon size also comes as the ASTM Black Captor 5570000N51, the ASTM XLPE Black Captor 5570000N48 and, for sulfuric acid, the 2000 gallon double wall tank in sulfuric acid resin 5570000N30. Each page carries its own rating, limit and weight. Smaller: the 1550 gallon ASTM XLPE Black Captor. Larger: the 2500 gallon sulfuric acid Captor. The tank sizing calculator and tank sizing guide match the gallons to your use.
Shipping and receiving
The tank ships LTL at freight class 300 from Snyder's plant in Lincoln, Nebraska, 102 by 102 by 103 inches and 900 lb. A forklift with long forks handles it; check that the route to the pad is wider than the tank. The listed price is before freight; the freight cost estimator gives the lane cost to your ZIP. At the tailgate, check 5570000N52 against the bill of lading, walk round both walls for transit damage, and fill the inner tank with water the first time before any chemical goes in.
