250 gallons at 1.9 specific gravity through a 34 inch door
The Snyder 5990500N45 is a white high density linear polyethylene vertical storage tank, 34 inches across and 83 inches tall, holding 250 gallons at 75 pounds. Its wall is rated for a specific gravity of 1.9, or 3,962 pounds of contents against 2,085 for water, so it holds concentrated treatment chemicals rather than rain, on a footprint that goes through a standard door and stands beside a dosing pump. A 14 inch threaded, vented manway on top, a 3 year warranty, and it ships as standard LTL freight.

The tall day tank
A day tank holds one shift or one day of chemical close to the dosing pump, so a leak is a small one and a wrong fill is caught early, and 83 inches of column on a 34 inch base keeps the pump's suction flooded with a footprint smaller than a pallet. Full, it puts 3,962 pounds on a 34 inch circle at the rating; a paver pad or a slab in full contact supports that, and the concrete pad sizing guide covers a shared slab. Strap it to a wall; a 34 inch base under 83 inches of dense liquid has a high center of gravity. The tank sizing calculator sizes the tank to the pump's rate and the refill schedule, and the tank sizing guide covers the reserve a day tank carries.
Single and double wall at 250 gallons
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5990500N45 (this tank) | 250 | 34 x 83 in | 75 lb |
| 5990502N45 (double wall, ASTM certified) | 250 | 34 x 83 in | 150 lb |
| 1008100C26 | 250 | 36 x 64 in | 70 lb |
| 1012900C26 | 210 | 36 x 55 in | 65 lb |
| 5740100N42 (XLPE) | 275 | 47 x 59 in | 96 lb |
The 5990502N45 is this same primary with a secondary shell around it, at twice the weight, for the site with no spill pallet and a floor drain nearby. The 1008100C26 is the general 250 on a 36 inch base, 19 inches shorter, and the 1012900C26 is the 210 gallon step down. The 5740100N42 is the squat cross-linked 275, 47 inches across and 59 tall, for oxidizers under a low ceiling.

Ports and access
- Access: 14 inch threaded, vented manway, 83 inches up; filled through a dip tube from a hose or tote pump, with the vent run outdoors when the liquid fumes.
- Outlet: specify the bulkhead fitting for the chemical when ordering; flex hose to the pump suction, valve braced off the floor so the fitting carries no pipe weight.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
A white 83 inch tank shows its level in daylight; a low-level switch protects the pump in a pump room. The dosing pump sits below the outlet so it primes by gravity, the manway stays closed against vapor loss, and a light-sensitive chemical stays out of the sun. A 34 inch tank fits a standard spill pallet.
Typical duty
Hypochlorite and caustic day tanks at small water systems, acid and inhibitor feed at a cooling tower, polymer make-down on a wastewater skid, brine for a softener, and, with water in it, a well buffer, a cell of the small fire reserve the fire-water reservoir design guide describes, or one stage of the small reuse system the industrial water reuse tank topology article describes. One chemical per tank, labeled.
Freight to your ZIP
The 5990500N45 ships palletized as LTL freight at a class rate; the freight cost estimator gives the number for your ZIP; the price shown here is before freight. One person carries 75 pounds through a door. Strap it, water-fill to the manway and hold it, then drain and dry before the chemical connection is made; mark the vent and the outlet on the shell so nobody caps the wrong one, and write the fill date on the manway with a paint marker. 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.
