RV 55 Gallon Fresh Water Holding Tank with 12V Pump
Category: blue 55 gallon water storage tank
The 55-Gallon Fresh Water Holding Tank is manufactured by Class A Customs in Elkhart, Indiana, USA, using NSF-approved materials, making it safe for fresh and drinking water. This tank is built with seamless, one-piece construction, featuring a creamy white color that allows the waterline to be visible.
The tank's measurements are 37.5" in length (excluding fittings), 17.5" in width, and 19.5" in height, with an average thickness of 7/32" (±0.25" due to the manufacturing process). It can be placed on any side, allowing the user to adjust the height or width as needed.
The tank is equipped with two 1.5" female NPT fittings, which are sealed and watertight. To use these fittings, the membrane must be removed with a razor knife. Additionally, there are two 0.5" female NPT fittings that are open. It is crucial not to overtighten the fittings, as this can cause damage. Plastic connecting fittings should be used instead of metal, as the latter can damage the threads.
This tank is non-pressurized and must be vented to allow air in and out during use. It is essential not to make a sealed connection directly from a garden hose to the tank, as this is a pressurized connection and can cause the tank to explode, leading to damage. For filling the tank, it is recommended to use a fill dish or other gravity-based process.
Before installation, it is necessary to clean each tank thoroughly to remove any debris, scuffs, or markings from the manufacturing process. A certified technician should install all parts to prevent product damage and personal injury.
The tank is designed for a variety of applications, including RVs, pop-up campers, off-road vehicles, concession trailers, hot dog carts, smaller food vendors, and portable hand washing sinks. It provides great extra water storage for these uses.
Accompanying the tank is a 12-volt fresh water pump, model #12V3, which is a diaphragm-type, on-demand pump. It is important to read the included instructions before installation and use.
For food vendors, it is crucial to verify all requirements with the health department where the inspection will be conducted before purchasing the tank.
In summary, the 55-Gallon Fresh Water Holding Tank by Class A Customs is a durable, NSF-approved solution for safe fresh and drinking water storage, made in the USA and designed for a variety of applications. Proper installation and maintenance are essential to ensure the tank's functionality and safety.
