Snyder Industries 3000 Gallon XLPE Cone Bottom Tank

Where a 120 inch cone fits

At 120 inches tall and 95 inches across, this tank suits a plant room or a shed where the roof is the limit. Measure the full stack before you order: the stand, plus 120 inches of tank, plus the room an operator needs to open the manway, plus the clearance under the cone for the valve and whatever receives the discharge.

Black is the colour to choose when light is the problem. It keeps daylight out of the liquid, which slows algae in water and protects light sensitive products, but you will not read the level through the wall, so plan a gauge or a sight method at the same time. Full of water this tank puts more than 25,000 lb through the feet of its stand, so the slab under it has to be designed for point loads, not just poured flat.

What to check before you buy

1. The outlet. No outlet size is listed for this part. Tell us your line size, the valve you want and the liquid, and we will confirm what 8360000N46 comes with before you order.
2. The manway. An 18 inch threaded vented manway on top. Keep the vent clear; a tank being pumped down has to draw air in.
3. The stand. A cone bottom tank needs a stand, and it is a separate purchase. Work out the fit with the cone bottom tank stand compatibility matrix, then call us to put both on one order.
4. The cone angle. No cone angle is listed for this tank. The drawing linked under Technical Drawing on this page shows the geometry; check it if the angle matters for a settling or slurry product.
5. The liquid. 1.5 specific gravity is the ceiling. Check the liquid and its strength in our chemical compatibility guide; buyers of this tank most often ask about urea solution, DEF, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride and propylene glycol.
6. Containment. If a release would reach a drain or open ground, read the Captor containment comparison before the slab is poured.

We also list other 3,000 gallon Snyder cones; check each one against your floor and ceiling: 5150000N40, 5150000N46, and the heavy duty 5150000N42 for liquids heavier than this tank's rating. One size down is the 2,600 gallon cone 5100000N40; one size up is the 3,600 gallon cone 8050000N40. For the capacity decision itself, our 3,000 gallon cone bottom buyer's guide and the guide to the 30 degree natural white 3,000 gallon shell walk through it, and the tank sizing calculator checks the volume.

Shipping and receiving

The tank ships by freight at class 400 from Snyder's plant in Chowchilla, California, as a 95 by 95 by 120 inch load at 612 lb. Light and bulky prices on space, not weight, so the lane distance from the west coast drives the cost. The listed price is before freight; the freight cost estimator gives the cost to your ZIP. Have the stand set, level and anchored before the truck arrives, and plan the offload equipment with us in advance. At the tailgate, check 8360000N46 against the bill of lading and walk the whole shell and the cone for transit damage. Fill it with water the first time, let it stand, and check the manway seal, the cone and the stand feet before any product goes in.
