ACORN CONTROLS EPS1000-6.5W Waste Water Tank
This HDPE tank serves industrial plumbing systems that require reliable wastewater containment. It is built for facilities managing effluent streams where chemical resistance and structural integrity are essential. The unit suits maintenance teams and plant operators who need a dedicated vessel for liquid waste handling. Buyers seeking pressurised storage or potable-water certification should look elsewhere.
Thermals noise and power draw
The tank operates passively with no moving parts, electrical consumption or audible output. Ambient temperature stability depends on the installation environment and the temperature of the waste stream itself. No external power supply or cooling infrastructure is required for normal operation. Thermal expansion characteristics follow standard HDPE behaviour without active management.
Included accessories and software
The product ships as a standalone tank without fittings, level sensors or control modules. No software, monitoring platform or configuration utility is bundled with the hardware. Installers must source compatible piping, valves and instrumentation separately to complete the system. The absence of integrated accessories means specifiers should plan for ancillary components during procurement.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 1000 gallon HDPE tank and what step is commonly missed?
Place the tank on a level, compacted base rated for 6.5W load, anchor it to resist buoyancy, and verify vent and inlet elevations before backfilling — skipping the base preparation is the step most often missed.
What maintenance or replacement will the EPS1000-6.5W tank need over time?
Inspect the HDPE shell annually for UV cracking, clean inlet and outlet screens quarterly, and replace gaskets on manway covers every 3 to 5 years to maintain a watertight seal.
What limit appears first when the tank runs continuously at full 1000 gallon capacity?
The 6.5W wall thickness governs the maximum sustained hydrostatic head; exceeding the design fill rate or operating above the rated temperature reduces the safety margin before any fitting or vent limitation is reached.
