Pressure Vessel 21x62 – Large Capacity FRP Tank for Sand, Carbon, Arsenic & Softener Media
The Pressure Vessel 21x62 (Model 2162) is a large-capacity empty FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) tank, built for industrial and larger commercial water treatment installations that need significantly more media volume than our standard 8-inch diameter vessels. As with our other vessels, it's sold empty — you fill it with the media your specific application requires.
Built for Larger-Scale Installations
At 21 inches in diameter and 62 inches tall, this vessel holds a substantially larger media bed than our 8x18 or 8x44 vessels, suited to industrial plants, larger commercial buildings, and installations processing higher water volumes — while operating within the same pressure and temperature envelope as our smaller vessels.
Multi-Purpose by Design
Because this is an empty vessel, one tank design supports several different treatment functions depending on what you load it with:
- Sand: For sediment and turbidity removal at industrial scale.
- Carbon (GAC or similar): For chlorine, taste, and odor removal ahead of downstream treatment.
- Arsenic removal media: For treating groundwater with elevated arsenic levels at higher volumes.
- Water softener resin: For hardness removal via ion exchange in larger buildings or facilities.
- Gravel: Commonly used as a support/underbedding layer beneath the primary media.
This vessel does not include media, a distributor tube, or a control valve — those are selected and purchased separately based on your specific application.
Which Size Do You Need?

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Does this vessel come with filter media included?
No — this is the empty vessel only. You select and fill it with the media appropriate for your application (sand, carbon, arsenic removal media, softener resin, or gravel), purchased separately.
Q2: What's the maximum operating pressure?
150 PSI (10 Bar), the same rating as our 8x18 and 8x44 vessels, confirmed directly from the manufacturer's label.
Q3: What temperature range is this rated for?
34–120°F (1–49°C) for operation. It must not be exposed to temperatures below -17°F (-27°C), even when not in use.
Q4: What is this vessel made of?
FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) — consistent with our other vessels.
Q5: What does "21x62" mean?
It refers to the vessel's nominal size — 21 inches in diameter by 62 inches in height.
Q6: Can this be used for pneumatic or air pressure applications?
No — this vessel is approved for water treatment use only, and must not be used for pneumatic or hydro-pneumatic applications.
Q7: Is delivery available across Pakistan?
Yes, nationwide delivery is available, including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, and Multan.
