Snyder Industries 5600 Gallon HDPE Vertical Liquid Storage Tank with ASTM Certification

The widest tank in the line, certified

Twelve feet of base under eight and a half feet of height is the shape for a low building or an eave, and the shape that needs the least strapping, because 88,738 pounds on a 142 inch circle sits low. The wall is sized for a liquid nearly twice as dense as water and certified against ASTM D1998; the HDPE tank wall thickness guide explains the sizing logic and why the headspace is where a wall ages. The floor is the widest in the line, so the pad matters more than the height: an engineered slab in full contact under the whole 142 inch circle, per the concrete pad sizing guide, because a tank this wide spans any hollow in a gravel base and cracks there when full. The tank sizing calculator tells you whether 5,600 gallons covers the draw, and the tank sizing guide covers days of supply.

Grades on the 142 x 102 inch tank, and the sizes beside it

The N45 is the other certified 1.9 tank in this shell at this tank's weight; the N42 is the heavy cross-linked tank for the densest oxidizers, and the N40 and N46 the lighter cross-linked and linear grades, 200 pounds less resin. The 7000000 tanks stand 5,500 and 6,000 gallons on a 120 inch base at 132 inches, 30 inches taller, for a site with height and less floor.

Fittings and access

• Access: 18 inch threaded, vented manway, 102 inches up; fill down a dip tube, run the vent outside on acid and caustic, and size it for the unload rate.
• Outlet: specify the bulkhead fitting for the chemical when ordering; a flanged transition, an expansion joint, and a valve supported off the slab.
• Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.
• Listing: ASTM certification.

Choose the level sender for the chemical and read it at ground level; the manway stays shut so vapor stays in the tank, and a chemical that sunlight degrades gets a shade or a roof. A single wall tank of regulated chemical stands inside a berm sized to it, and a berm around a twelve foot tank takes floor, so plan it with the pad. If winters freeze, wrap or drain the outlet valve and the first pipe run.

The first delivery

The driver's pump can deliver faster than the manway vent can breathe, so the vent is sized for the unload rate or the fill goes through a dedicated top bulkhead with its own vent line. The fill pipe runs to the floor so caustic or coagulant does not free-fall and foam. Never add water to the chemical; add the chemical to the water, because the dilution heat is real. Somebody stands at the tank for the whole of the first delivery, watching the slab edge and the outlet fitting as the level rises, and every delivery after that goes in the log with a date and a strength.

Jobs it is bought for

Ferric and other dense coagulants under a low roof, heavy brine at plant scale, dense process chemicals delivered by tanker into a barn or a shed, and water where the buyer wants the heaviest certified wall and the lowest center of gravity, including a fire reserve of the kind the fire-water reservoir design guide describes. One liquid per tank, labeled for both inspectors at once.

What the carrier needs from you

At 142 inches across the 5250000N43 is oversize freight (NMFC 156600) on a flatbed at a lane rate, wider than most loads on the road, so the estimator's lane matters; the freight cost estimator gives the flatbed number for your ZIP, and the listed price is before freight. A crane or a forklift with long forks sets 1,350 pounds on the slab, and the slab is checked flat before the tank lands. Test it on water first, to the manway, held, then drained and dried before any chemical is connected; file the certification with the job. Note the pad height and the outlet height on the site plan while the tape is out; the next pipe run will need both.
