450 Litre Tower Water Tank
Product Overview
The 450 Litre Water Tank, Tower is an upright rectangular baffled water storage tank designed for storing and transporting potable water and other compatible liquids.
It is manufactured from MDPE / polyethylene and provides 450 litres of storage while maintaining a relatively compact footprint. The integrated internal baffling helps reduce water movement during transportation, making it particularly suitable for mobile applications.

- Approx. 99 gallons
- Upright tower design
- Integrated baffling
- Manufactured from MDPE / polyethylene
- Suitable for potable water
- Suitable for compatible liquids
- Natural translucent finish available

High-Capacity Tower Design
The 450 Litre Tower Water Tank combines a substantial storage capacity with an upright rectangular configuration, making it suitable for installations where available floor space needs to be used efficiently.
With dimensions of approximately 670 × 590 mm at the base and 1150 mm high, the tank provides 450 litres of storage without requiring the footprint of a much wider horizontal tank.
This configuration can be particularly useful for:
- Commercial cleaning vehicles
- Window cleaning systems
- Car valeting equipment
- Mobile pressure washing
- Agricultural applications
- Commercial water storage
- Vehicle-based water systems
- General above-ground water storage
The tank should be positioned on a suitable, stable and adequately supported surface.
At approximately 30 kg when empty, the tank can be positioned before filling. Once full, however, it will contain approximately 450 kg of water, in addition to the weight of the tank and any accessories.
The supporting structure or vehicle floor must therefore be capable of safely supporting the combined filled load.
Integrated Baffle System
One of the key features of this tank is its integrated internal baffling system.
The baffles are formed through grooves and openings that run through the tank. Their purpose is to interrupt the movement of water and help prevent large volumes of liquid from moving freely from side to side.
When a tank is transported with a significant volume of water inside, liquid movement can affect vehicle stability and handling, particularly during:
- Acceleration
- Braking
- Cornering
- Changes in direction
The internal baffling helps to reduce this sloshing effect, making the tank particularly appropriate for mobile applications.
Water tanks can be extremely hazardous when transporting large volumes of liquids. Please make sure that they are installed and secured by a suitable qualified person before transportation.
Ideal for Mobile Water Transportation
The 450 Litre Tower Baffled Water Tank is particularly suited to businesses and professionals who need to carry a substantial water supply as part of their daily operations.
The manufacturer specifically highlights applications such as car valeting and window cleaning, where water needs to be transported to different locations.
Potential applications include:
- Window cleaning
- Car valeting
- Mobile vehicle cleaning
- Mobile pressure washing
- Commercial cleaning
- Vehicle-based water systems
- Portable water supplies
- Agricultural water transportation
- General liquid transportation
The baffled design provides an advantage over non-baffled tanks where regular transportation is required.
Applications
The 450 Litre Tower Baffled Water Tank is suitable for a wide range of applications, including:
- Potable water storage
- Potable water transportation
- Window cleaning
- Car valeting
- Mobile vehicle cleaning
- Mobile pressure washing
- Commercial cleaning
- Agricultural applications
- Horticultural applications
- Vehicle-based water systems
- Portable water supplies
- General-purpose liquid storage
Its combination of high capacity, upright design and internal baffling makes it particularly well suited to mobile water systems.
The tank should only be used with liquids that are compatible with the MDPE / polyethylene construction and selected fittings.
