DEFINITION
40ft / 68KL class
40ft / 68KL / 40HC — above-ground double-wall self-bunded steel tank, one-piece ship and lift. Public names: 68KL / 40HC only. See self-bunded fuel tanks for the series.
APPLICATIONS
Who it is for
- Large-site diesel bulk (above ~20ft / 38KL).
- Container-like footprint for yard / lift planning.
- Optional front-room pump / dispenser (volume trade-off).
- Power / fleet depots needing clear Gross vs Safe Fill before RFQ.
FOOTPRINT VS USABLE VOLUME
Equipment room vs volume
Front equipment room uses tank length — do not quote full-cube litres plus a dispenser in one 40ft HC. Specs: ~68KL class · Safe Fill 65,750 L example.
~68KL · Safe Fill 65,750 L (this drawing class).
SPECIFICATIONS
Gross volume and Safe Fill (example drawing)
Diesel drawing example: Gross 69,050 L · Safe Fill 65,750 L. Say which figure the RFQ needs. Safe Fill ≠ Gross.
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Product | Self-bunded (double-wall) above-ground fuel tank — 68KL / 40HC class |
| Outer class | ~40 ft / 40HC-class footprint (layout & lifting class) |
| Example Gross volume | 69,050 L (diesel drawing example) |
| Example Safe Fill | 65,750 L (diesel drawing example) |
| Capacity note | Final Gross / Safe Fill confirmed on the order drawing / written quote. Safe Fill ≠ gross. |
| Optional front equipment room | Y/N — pumps, filters, meters, dispenser, controls (reduces tank length vs tank-only shell) |
| Example media | Diesel (hero); other media per order |
| Family scope (context) | ZHONGBAO builds self-bunded tanks across a 200–130,000 L family range — manufacturer scope, not this unit’s Safe Fill |
| Lead time | Typical 4–8 weeks, confirm per order |
| Documentation | Drawings, inspection records, data sheets — set confirmed in writing before production |
| Comparison (not this SKU) | ~20 ft / 38KL / 20HC example: Gross 37,250 L / Safe Fill 35,340 L (95% on that drawing) — see the self-bunded fuel tanks page |

CONSTRUCTION
Plate / construction notes
Carbon steel primary + integral outer shell. Coatings and fittings follow the fuel on the order. Plate / outer mm on RFQ.
OPTIONS
Front equipment room and dispenser options
Optional front bay: pump / filter / meter / dispenser. Tell engineering Y/N + equipment list so Gross / Safe Fill match the layout.
- Tank-only shell: maximise tank length within the 40HC-class footprint.
- Front room fitted: accept that compartment length is not tank volume — use the ~68KL / Safe Fill 65,750 L example language for this drawing class.
- Related systems (do not merge products): integrated dispensing tanks for pump-integrated layouts; containerized fuel stations for tank-plus-canopy portable stations.
MEDIA
Fuels and media
- Hero: diesel — the Gross 69,050 L / Safe Fill 65,750 L pair above is a diesel drawing example.
- Also configurable in family language: petrol / gasoline, aviation kerosene / Jet-A, AdBlue–DEF — named on the order.
- Steel, coatings and fittings follow the fuel named on the order. Destination hazmat and multi-compartment rules are confirmed on the RFQ.

RFQ
RFQ checklist
RFQ: 40ft / 68KL self-bunded. Engineering confirms Gross / Safe Fill for your layout (equipment room Y/N). No public price list.
- Fuel type (diesel / petrol / aviation kerosene / AdBlue–DEF / other — specify).
- Required capacity and whether the number is Safe Fill or gross / nominal (you may reference example 69,050 / 65,750 as discussion figures).
- Footprint preference: 40ft / 40HC class confirmed? Or max L × W × H.
- Front equipment / dispenser room? Y / N + equipment list (pump, meter, filter, dispenser, controls…).
- Estimated consumption/day and desired days between refill — if known (sizing detail → Safe Fill guide).
- Site access / lifting constraints.
- Destination country (buyer confirms local containment & document rules).
- Document / certification scope to request in writing (not a claim of certificates held).
- Project timeline / required delivery window (if known).

FAQ
Common questions
What is the example Gross / Safe Fill on the 68KL / 40HC class?
A current diesel drawing example lists Gross 69,050 L / Safe Fill 65,750 L. These are example drawing figures — final figures for an order are confirmed on that order’s drawing or written quotation. Safe Fill is not gross.
Does a front equipment room change capacity?
Yes — front bay shortens tank length. Quote ~68KL / Safe Fill 65,750 L for this class; not full-cube litres plus dispenser.
How does 40ft / 68KL compare to 20ft / 38KL?
The 40ft / 68KL / 40HC class is the larger option. A companion ~20 ft / 38KL / 20HC drawing example lists Gross 37,250 L / Safe Fill 35,340 L (95% on that drawing). Both pairs are drawing examples pending order confirmation — see the self-bunded fuel tanks page for the class overview.
