Pryco MANUAL Day Tanks are similar to
Standard Day Tanks, but do not have a
pump, motor, and a control system. (Non-
U/L Listed Manual tanks do not have a
cover.)
Like all of Pryco’s tanks, they are available
in either a U/L Listed (Label 142, File
#MH12807 - Aboveground Tank for
Flammable Liquids) or a basic, non-U/L
Listed version.
Pryco Tanks are fabricated of heavy
gauge steel by certified welders. Each
tank complies with NFPA 30 and is tested
to 5 psi
|
. Manual Tanks take on a variety of roles other than that of a typical day tank. For example:
- Larger Manual tanks are often used as the system’s main storage tank. In this role, they are normally used
in conjunction with a day tank with pump and controls. (Consider a U/L Listed, double walled version.)
- Smaller versions may be used as a wall-mounted "dry sump" for automatic engine lubrication.
. The only restriction - like all tanks, they must not be utilized as a pressurized vessel.

We also have seismic versions available for Manual tanks - Call for specifications.

A totally enclosed outer shell may be added resulting in
a double wall construction. Both the inner and the outer
tanks are vented separately and are pressure tested at
5 psi.
When enclosing a U/L Listed day tank, an additional
emergency vent is added to the outer tank the same
size as the inner tank. (The U/L Listing is "Secondary
Containment Aboveground Tank for Flammable
Liquids", File MH12807.)
Day Tanks with a capacity of 25 gallons and more have
all threaded connections located on the tank top
(except the overflow, drains, and the double wall vent).
The inner tank drain is piped through the outer shell.

. In addition to the above features, all U/L Listed
. tanks have:
- additional internal reinforcement
- a properly sized emergency vent system

All Day Tanks can be set in a Rupture Basin (open top

pump motor, turn on an alarm light and provide
contacts for a remote signal - Options 295 and 395.
