2,500 gallons at 1.5 specific gravity on a 96 inch base, just over eight feet
The Snyder 5090300C37 is a natural white polyethylene vertical storage tank, 96 inches across and 98 inches tall, holding 2,500 gallons at 510 pounds. It is the 2,500 for the room with an eight foot ceiling and a little to spare: nine inches lower than the 90 inch tanks at this volume, on a base half a foot wider, with the 18 inch threaded, vented manway reached from a step. Its wall is rated for a specific gravity of 1.5, or 31,275 pounds of contents against 20,850 for water, the middle wall for brine, fertilizer solution and coagulant as delivered as well as water. A 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead outlet, a 3 year warranty, and freight at class 400 from Chowchilla, California.

Half a foot wider, nine inches lower
The difference between this tank and its 90 inch siblings is the roof line: a 98 inch tank opens its manway under an eight and a half foot ceiling where a 107 inch tank does not, and the wider base gives it a lower center of gravity and less strapping for the same volume. Full at the rating it puts 31,275 pounds on a 96 inch circle, and a rotationally molded floor bears on all of it: a slab in full contact per the concrete pad sizing guide, or a compacted, screeded gravel pad for water, inside a berm when the liquid is a regulated chemical. The white wall shows the level in daylight. The tank sizing calculator tells you whether 2,500 gallons covers the draw between deliveries, and the tank sizing guide covers the reserve to leave in the bottom.
The 2,500s on 90, 96 and 102 inch bases
| Part | Gallons | Diameter x height | Empty weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5090300C37 (this tank, 1.5 SG) | 2,500 | 96 x 98 in | 510 lb |
| 8140000C37 (tall) | 2,500 | 90 x 107 in | 450 lb |
| 5090000C26 (tall) | 2,500 | 90 x 107 in | 450 lb |
| 5090000C34 (tall) | 2,500 | 90 x 107 in | 450 lb |
| 5090000C37-BLACK (black, tall) | 2,500 | 90 x 107 in | 450 lb |
| 5050000C26 | 2,000 | 90 x 88 in | 340 lb |
| 8390000C26 (low profile) | 2,650 | 102 x 97 in | 510 lb |
The 8140000C37 and the 5090000 family are the same 2,500 gallons on a 90 inch base at 107 inches, sixty pounds lighter, in the general grades and black. The 5050000C26 is the 2,000 on that base at 88 inches, and the 8390000C26 lays 2,650 gallons down to 97 inches on a 102 inch base at this tank's weight, the next step down in height.

Access and outlet
- Outlet: 2 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting, at the base; a flexible connector between the bulkhead and hard pipe, the valve supported off the pad, and a flanged transition on a chemical.
- Access: 18 inch threaded, vented manway, 98 inches up, reached from a step; filled by hose, tote pump or truck through a dip tube, vented outside on anything that fumes, and the vent sized for the delivery pump.
- Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
Eight feet of liquid above the outlet is a flooded suction to the last few inches; a pump mounted below the outlet primes by gravity, and a float at low level protects it from running dry. Keep the manway closed against vapor loss, and keep the tank out of direct sun where the liquid is light-sensitive. 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.
Rooms it was made for
A chemical room with a standard ceiling at a small water plant, a fertilizer or brine tank in a farm shed, well storage in a barn, a rain cistern under a low roof, and a fire reserve of the kind the fire-water reservoir design guide describes. Several are the storage stage of a reuse system for roof water and condensate, per the industrial water reuse tank topology article. If the liquid is a chemical that warrants a second wall, the Captor double wall freeboard guide explains what a contained tank gives up in usable volume.
Freight from Chowchilla
The 5090300C37 ships from Chowchilla, California as LTL freight at class 400, the class light, bulky tanks take; at 96 inches across it goes outside the trailer, and the freight cost estimator prices the lane to your ZIP, with the listed price before freight. A forklift with long forks sets 510 pounds on the pad. Fill it to the manway once, hold it, and check the outlet fitting and the pad edge before the pump goes on; on a chemical, drain and dry before the connection is made. Keep one spare gasket for the outlet fitting on the shelf. Tape a copy of the spec sheet inside the control panel door; the next person to touch the tank will not have the box it came in.
