Elliptical Poly Tank Applications
Thanks to their low profile and low center of gravity, elliptical leg water tanks are ideal for storing potable or non-potable water, providing backup water supplies for farms, and supporting fire suppression efforts. UV stabilization ensures the tank can be safely stored outdoors without degrading. Choosing a black elliptical tank further protects stored water quality by reducing algae growth.
Built-in impact-resistant poly legs provide forklift clearance, making it easy to transport the tank with a forklift or front loader. Tanks can be mounted on stands to increase water pressure or installed on trailers for mobile spray applications.
Elliptical Tank Frequently Asked Questions
Elliptical leg tanks are often used when the water tank needs the ability to be moved to different locations on the job site. The legs provide clearance so that a forklift's tines can fit below the tank for safe lifting even when the tank is full.
Elliptical water tanks provide a lower profile. This means that it is easier to see over them for the safety of the forklift operator when moving the tank from one location to another on grounds. Elliptical water tanks also have a lower center of gravity than round tanks. This translates into them being more stable, especially during transportation.
