Snyder Industries 70 Gallon Heavy Duty Vertical Storage Tank

The 1007200 family, and the other 70 we list

Four tanks share the 1007200 shell. The 1007200C34 is the black tank at the same 30 pounds for liquids that light spoils; the 1007200N42 is the natural cross-linked tank by its name and the 1007200N48 the black cross-linked tank by its name, each rated as its own sheet says; and the C26 is the natural white linear wall rated 1.9. Buy the C26 over the C34 when the operator reads the level by eye and the liquid does not care about light; buy it over the N42 when the specification does not ask for cross-linked polyethylene, because at 70 gallons and 1.9 the linear wall already carries a dense liquid. Beside this family there is a second 70 gallon shell we list, one inch shorter at the same diameter and weight, with an eight inch lid on its sheet, molded in Lincoln; the choice between the two is the plant nearest the pad and whether a stated lid opening matters. At the rating the tank puts 1,109 pounds on a 23 inch circle, a load any slab or steel stand carries, but the surface must be flat and level, because a small tank that rocks wears its bulkhead fitting; where the liquid is regulated, a tray or a berm sized to the tank goes under it. The concrete pad sizing guide was written for tanks that weigh tons, and its full-contact rule still applies to one that weighs 30 pounds. Take 70 gallons to the tank sizing calculator against the dose rate and the refill interval, and the reserve and thermal headspace to the tank sizing guide.

What else holds 65 to 90 gallons

Within the shell the sheet separates the four by resin and color only. The 1550000C26 holds five gallons less on a 24 inch circle at 46 inches and is listed at 85 pounds, which the sheet gives and we print; it is the tank to compare when the stand is already built for a taller shape. The 5690100N42 spreads 90 gallons on a 34 inch circle at 41 inches, one inch shorter than this tank, a cross-linked wall by its name for a bench that has width and no height.

Breathing a small tank with no lid on the sheet

• Vent and fill: the sheet lists no lid or manway field for this tank, and we print what it gives. Tell us at order how the tank will be filled and drawn down, and the opening at the top is specified to breathe it: a hand fill from a hose or a drum pump displaces little air, but a tank that a pump draws down with the top closed will pull a vacuum and cave, so the opening is never sealed tight. Fill with the hose end below the rim so a dense liquid does not splash the headspace wall.
• Headspace: fill to the shoulder. The wall above the liquid line lives in vapor; look at it with a light when the top is open.
• Outlet: 1 inch polypropylene female NPT bulkhead fitting at the base. Name the liquid at order and the fitting, gasket and bolting are matched to it, with a short flexible connector and the valve supported on the stand.
• Service limit: 120 F / 48 C.

Three and a half feet of head over a 1 inch outlet gravity-feeds a metering pump or a day-tank line, which is the job most 70 gallon tanks do; set the tank on a stand so the pump inlet sits below the outlet and it runs flooded to the last inch. A bench-height tank is the one people lean on, hang hoses from and forget; keep the outlet clear, the chemical's name on the wall, and the top covered. A tank this small freezes solid in one cold night in an unheated room, so it lives indoors, or the valve and line are traced and the tank is drained ahead of a hard cold.

West Coast day tanks and small contained feeds

A chemical feed day tank beside a metering pump at a Central Valley water plant, a mix tank for a fertilizer solution at a nursery, a rinse or process tank in a shop, and the small dose tank a reuse system keeps between its storage stages; the industrial water reuse tank topology article places a tank of this size in that train. Where site rules ask for a second wall even at 70 gallons, the Captor double wall freeboard guide explains what a contained tank gives up in usable volume, and why a small tank gives up a larger share of it.

Merced to the bench at class 250

The 1007200C26 ships from Merced, California as freight at class 250 as the sheet lists it; at 23 inches across and 42 inches tall it rides on a pallet inside the trailer, and the freight cost estimator prices the lane to your ZIP, with the listed price before freight. Two people lift 30 pounds off the pallet by the body, never by the fitting. Fill it with water to the shoulder once and hold it, watching the base fitting for a weep, then drain and dry it before the chemical goes in. The tank arrives faster than the stand does, so order the stand first. Leave room to walk all the way around it; the side of the tank nobody can see is the side that leaks.
