Diesel Tank Sizing — Quick Reference
Diesel tank selection comes down to (1) capacity needed for your refuelling cadence, (2) portable vs static, and (3) what dispensing pump/meter/filter kit pairs with it. AIMS stocks Macnaught, Alemlube and Lubemate poly tanks from 75L to 600L with matched dispensing kits.
| Tank Size | Best For | Typical Pump Rate | Compliance Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 75 – 110 L Portable | Ute-tray refuelling for site equipment, small fleet, generators | 40 – 60 L/min 12V | Light enough to load empty; transport regulations apply when full |
| 200 L Portable / Site | Single-vehicle or small-equipment fleet | 50 – 70 L/min 12V or 240V | Bunded options available; check site EPA compliance |
| 400 L Site | Multi-vehicle fleet, contractor yards, small farms | 60 – 80 L/min 240V | Bunded base highly recommended; site-fix or trailer-mount |
| 600 L Site | Larger fleet, mining services, agricultural enterprises | 70 – 90 L/min 240V | Static install, bunded — full AS 1940 dangerous goods compliance applies |
| AdBlue / DEF Tanks | Diesel exhaust fluid for SCR-equipped trucks (Euro 5/6) | 30 – 40 L/min 12V/240V | SEPARATE tank — never reuse diesel pumps/hoses; PE-compatible only |
Critical: Diesel and AdBlue equipment must NEVER cross-contaminate — AdBlue ruins SCR catalysts. Match pump, meter, filter, and nozzle as a complete dispensing kit. Companion ranges: diesel pumps, flow meters, diesel nozzles, diesel hose reels, Macnaught brand range.

Pair any tank with our pump, meter, filter, and nozzle range for a plug-and-play diesel dispensing setup.
The AIMS Diesel Tank Range
Our tank range is made from durable, UV-stabilised polyethylene — chemically resistant to diesel, AdBlue, and DEF — and is designed for Australian site conditions.
- Portable Tanks & Caddies: The Macnaught 75L Transportable Caddy (TC75-01) is a compact, self-contained diesel solution ideal for light fleet and small equipment. Easy to load onto utes and trailers for field refuelling.
- Mid-Range Diesel Tanks: Macnaught 100L, 200L, and 300L poly diesel tank kits offer a step up in capacity for medium-sized sites. The Macnaught 200L Poly Diesel Tank Kit (MDT200L) is a popular choice for workshop and depot use.
- High-Capacity Site Tanks: The Macnaught 400L (narrow and standard) and 600L poly diesel tank kits are built for high-consumption sites — mining, earthmoving, construction, and transport operations. Fewer refills, less downtime.
- Complete Pump & Tank Kits: Macnaught diesel tanks with 12V high-flow pump kits (60 LPM and 85 LPM) and Alemlube Piusi auto-nozzle poly diesel storage tanks are delivered as ready-to-go dispensing systems — tank, pump, hose, and nozzle included.
- AdBlue & Combo Tanks: The Lubemate 200L Poly AdBlue/DEF Tank (L-PABT200) and Lubemate 330/50L Poly Combo Diesel/AdBlue Tank (L-PCT33050) allow separate diesel and AdBlue storage in a single footprint — ideal for SCR-equipped fleets. Also see our AdBlue equipment range.
Choosing the Right Diesel Tank
- Capacity Planning: Size your tank to your refuelling frequency and fleet consumption. A general rule: store enough diesel for 3–7 days of peak use. Oversizing wastes money; undersizing creates constant refill logistics.
- Complete the System: Pair your tank with a diesel transfer pump, fuel filter, fuel meter, and a dispensing nozzle for a full dispensing system. Many kits include all components.
- Compliance: Check local council and state regulations for above-ground fuel storage. Volume thresholds for secondary containment requirements vary by state — see our spill control and containment range for bunded pallets and spill trays.
