Snyder Industries 2500 Gallon ASTM XLPE Vertical Storage Tank

Where it goes

This is a mid-size bulk tank for a water system, a greenhouse, a wash bay or a small treatment room: enough volume for a bulk delivery, on a circle that fits beside a doorway, under 9 feet to the manway. Full of water it puts 20,850 lb on a 90 inch circle, so the slab is poured level and in full contact with the whole tank floor; our concrete pad sizing guide covers the design. Strap the empty tank to structure before the first fill. Because the wall is translucent, keep light-sensitive liquids indoors or in shade. Check the volume against your draw and delivery interval with the tank sizing calculator and the tank sizing guide. Where a second wall is required, the Captor double wall freeboard guide shows what containment costs in usable volume; where the tank is one stage of a reuse system, the industrial water reuse tank topology article shows where a 2,500 fits; and for a fire reserve, read the fire water reservoir guide first.

What to check before you buy

1. The liquid. Up to 1.5 specific gravity and 140 F in this tank. Check it in the chemical compatibility guide; for a denser chemical, ask us about the heavy duty walls of this shell.
2. The outlet. Tell us the liquid and the pipe size you are connecting and we confirm the fitting that goes in the wall. Put the first valve on its own support and connect to hard pipe through a flexible connector so the tank wall carries liquid, not plumbing.
3. The manway. An 18 inch threaded vented manway, 107 inches up, so plan a platform or a fill line from the ground. Keep the lid shut between deliveries. A Snyder drawing for the 5090000 shell is linked under Technical Drawing on this page.

Shipping and receiving

The 5090000N40 ships LTL at freight class 400 from Snyder's plant in Lincoln, NE or Philippi, WV, whichever is nearer, strapped to a skid at 90 by 90 by 107 inches and 450 lb. The freight cost estimator gives the lane cost to your ZIP; the listed price is before freight. A forklift sets it with straps under the body, never through the manway. Check the part number 5090000N40 on the bill of lading, look over the shell for transit damage, and fill it with water first, holding it a day while you watch the pad edge and the outlet fitting, before anything else goes in.
