Snyder Industries 400 Gallon ASTM Black Heavy Duty Vertical Storage Tank

Where it goes

Everything about the site work on this tank is small. A 45 inch circle drops inside a four foot containment curb with room to spare, sits in the corner of a pump house, and fits on a skid or a trailer deck. Do the concrete properly anyway: full of water the tank puts 3,336 lb on that circle, and more at the full rating, so pour the slab to our concrete pad sizing guide, level and in full contact. At 85 lb empty a gust moves it, so band it to structure the day it lands. Check 400 gallons against the draw between fills in the tank sizing calculator, and take the reserve and freeboard from the tank sizing guide.

What goes in it

A well house or lift station where the corner is all the room there is, a dosing skid that needs real inventory instead of a row of drums, a service truck or trailer build, a shop waste collection tank, a farm nurse tank for a liquid that has to stay dark, a wash bay makeup tank, and dark holding for reclaimed or harvested water. Check any chemical in the chemical compatibility guide before you order.

Openings and fittings

1. Manway. An 18 inch threaded vented manway at 62 inches. On a tank this size the opening means a cleaning wand reaches the whole floor and a probe or a float drops straight in; a fixed step at the pad makes it a one-person job. Land the fill connection at the rim permanently, with a dip tube to the floor so the stream does not free-fall and foam.
2. Outlet. Tell us the liquid and the draw-off arrangement you want when you order and we will confirm in writing what this tank accepts at the base and in what material before anything is drilled. Use a flexible connector and support the valve on its own.
3. Drawing. Snyder's drawing for 1740000N51 is linked under Technical Drawing on this page.

Sizes nearby

The same 400 gallons on the same 45 inch base in other walls: the 400 gallon black crosslinked tank 1740000N48 for chemistry or temperature that calls for it, the 400 gallon crosslinked tank in white and the 400 gallon HDPE tank in white 1740000N45 for reading the level through the wall. Both neighbours are wider: the 360 gallon crosslinked tank 5760100N42 gives up gallons to stay low, and the 440 gallon crosslinked tank 5770100N42 adds them.

Shipping and receiving

The tank ships LTL at freight class 300 from Snyder's Lincoln, Nebraska plant, 45 by 45 by 62 inches on a pallet, 85 lb, about as central a lane as the country has. Freight is priced on the space the parcel takes rather than the weight; run your ZIP through the freight cost estimator. Add it to your cart at the top of this page, get LTL freight to your ZIP, or call 866-418-1777. The listed price is before freight. Two people lift it off the trailer by hand with straps under the body, never a sling through the manway, and it can go straight to its final position. Check 1740000N51 against the bill of lading, fill it with water the first time, and come back a week after the first working fill to put a wrench on the band tension; a light tank settles into its pad.
