4,000 Litre Stainless Steel Tank

Medium stainless steel tank with a capacity of 4,000 litres

A 4,000-litre stainless steel tank is designed in the vertical position with suggested dimensions of an inside diameter of about 1,500 millimetres and a height of about 2,250 millimetres; this diameter-to-height ratio strikes a good balance between tank stability and sheet use. The same tank can also be built horizontally.

This capacity is the most widely used range in the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries and, because it is so common, usually has a shorter fabrication time than large custom tanks. Depending on the fluid, grade 304 or 316 can be chosen, and a double wall (jacket) or agitator can be added if needed.

Before placing an order, you can use the online tank calculator to see your chosen dimensions, shell thickness, approximate weight and estimated price of the 4,000-litre tank instantly and, if needed, change the diameter-to-height ratio to suit the installation space.

Can the dimensions of the 4,000-litre tank be changed?
Yes, the dimensions given are suggestions, and with the online tank calculator you can check your preferred diameter-to-height ratio for this volume.
How much does a 4,000-litre stainless steel tank cost?
For a quick estimate you can use the online tank calculator, or for the final price, submit a formal quotation request.
Can the 4,000-litre tank also be built horizontally?
Yes, the same capacity can also be designed and built horizontally by changing the orientation in the online calculator.
