Dimensions and specifications of our Plastic Tanks
The main dimensions of the plastic water tanks can be found on the product page under the 'Specifications' tab. Dimensions such as length, width and height are given in cm. The height is generally the height of the tank without the lid opening. For more precise details such as LxWxH in mm, height including lid, the exact position of the brass BSP outlet or the position of the integrated baffles or ribs etc., please refer to the technical drawings of the water tanks. These can be found on each product page under the 'Drawings and Certificates' tab.
Here you will also find a resistance list, which shows the material resistance to specific liquids or chemicals that can be stored in our plastic water tanks. Permanent storage and use of water in our Watertanks is possible up to a temperature of 70 degrees Celsius and in our PE Tanks up to 60 degrees Celsius. The storage of diesel is also no problem. The WRAS certificate confirms that the water tank is suitable for the storage of drinking water. If you are a business customer, we can also provide you with 3D models of the water tanks in the form of CAD/step files for your individual planning.
Equip our Plastic Tanks with customised connections
Connection with PP Push-In BSP Fittings
If the location for an additional connection is inaccessible or difficult to access through the existing lid opening, then use our new PP Push-In BSP Fittings, which can be easily screwed into any flat area of the plastic tank from the outside. Another advantage of these Push-In BSP Fittings is that they always have an external thread (outside the plastic tank) and an internal thread (can be used from inside or outside the plastic tank). This gives you maximum flexibility and allows you to attach risers or suction lines to our plastic tanks.

Connection with PVC Connections
Any additional connections required for inlet, overflow or external ventilation can be easily and independently installed by using our PVC Connection or PVC Tank Connection Sets in sizes ¾ - 2 inches. Ensure that the location where you want to drill a connection hole is accessible through the existing tank lid opening on the plastic tank so that the tank connection can be screwed in place. This will give you an external thread in the required inch size for the installation of other tank accessories such as ball valves or hose tails.
