This is the Snyder Industries optional level gauge, a factory-matched accessory for Snyder 35 to 500 gallon vertical and DCT polyethylene tanks. It gives you an at-a-glance read on how much water is in the tank without opening a lid or guessing, as a 48-inch vertical assembly with a compact 4 x 4 inch footprint. If you run a Snyder vertical tank in the 35 to 500 gallon range and want to track drawdown and refill timing directly at the tank, this is the OEM-intended accessory for that job.
Does it fit my tank?
The gauge is built by Snyder Industries for its own 35 to 500 gallon vertical and DCT polyethylene tanks, so the fit is matched to that family rather than adapted from a generic aftermarket kit. This is a factory Snyder assembly, with mounting hardware matched to the Snyder tank boss rather than a generic bulkhead fitting, so it should not be adapted to non-Snyder tanks. Before ordering, confirm your tank is a Snyder vertical or DCT within that gallon band. The gauge column is a fixed 48 inches; on shorter tanks in the range it reads a partial column, so call to confirm the readable band for your specific model. If you are still selecting the tank itself, the Tank Sizing Calculator and Tank Sizing Guide help you match a 500 gallon vertical tank to your daily draw before you add the gauge.
How level gauges fit into your system
A level gauge like this is a straightforward way to monitor a water tank, and it helps to know where it sits among the options. Our guide on tank level gauge selection walks through radar, ultrasonic, hydrostatic, and magnetostrictive alternatives if you later need remote telemetry, alarms, or chemical-service monitoring. For a simple on-site water read, this gauge does the job.
Freight and ordering
The gauge itself is light. This item ships LTL, quoted live to your ZIP from the nearest Snyder plant among Lincoln, NE, Marked Tree, AR, and Merced, CA. If you are pairing it with a new tank, note that the 4,170 lb figure is the tank's full-water weight at 500 gallons, not the gauge, and it drives the tank's pad and freight planning far more than the gauge itself. Get an exact rate through our Freight Cost Estimator, or call 866-418-1777 with your tank's model number so we can verify the mounting interface before it ships and combine it with your tank order on one shipment. The most common mistake here is ordering a gauge for a tank outside the 35 to 500 gallon Snyder vertical or DCT range, so verify the model first.
