Able to fit under any 36” manway, Watertight Fiberglass Tank Sumps provide a clear 31” diameter opening for easy access to equipment.

Watertight Lid
A game-changing new lightweight lid design delivers the highest level of protection from water intrusion.
Two-Piece Riser
The two-piece riser and base allow easy access to tank top equipment and pipework entry during installation.
Pour-In-Place Installation
Once equipment installation is complete, the top riser is securely fastened to the base’s integrated fill channel using a watertight pour-in-place slurry.

TECHNICAL ADVANTAGES

Two stainless steel handles are surface-mounted with no penetrations, eliminating potential leak paths.

Side-Sealing Gasket
Side-Sealing Gasket

The watertight lid gasket seals to the side of the sump wall, preventing debris from getting trapped between the lid and the sump to protect the integrity of the seal.

Integrated Lid Vent
Integrated Lid Vent

The vapor pressure vent’s thin membrane balances pressure without letting liquid in, making it easier to remove the cover during maintenance.

Lid Latch Verification
