ABS Impact Resistant Pressure Reducing Water Tank

Product Overview

The ABS impact-resistant pressure reducing water tank is the header unit of a nipple automatic drinking system, designed to hold water at a stable low height before it flows into the drinking line. Model SL-12, this tank is molded in a cream-colored ABS shell and carries a vertical water level scale window marked from 40 to 200, so the operator can read the water volume directly from the front. The body measures 33.5 cm across the top, 22.5 cm deep and 29 cm high, with a 29 cm base, and weighs 1201 g. These compact dimensions suit the standard header bracket used in most modern poultry houses.

The impact-resistant ABS compound stands up to the knocks of a working house, where tools, crates and birds can bump the header tank. Because the tank sits above the line, gravity pressure is consistent along the run, which keeps every nipple drips evenly. Each export carton holds 20 pieces, and the front face of the tank is printed with the nipple drinking system branding used across the range. The printed marking makes it easy for crews to identify the unit during maintenance and stock checks.

Key Features and Benefits

• Impact-resistant ABS shell - the tank body resists bumps and drops in a busy poultry house.
• Water level scale window - the red-marked window from 40 to 200 shows the current water level at a glance.
• Stable gravity pressure - holding water above the line keeps nipple pressure even across the whole run, from start to end of the house.
• Nipple system branding - the printed front face identifies the unit as part of the automatic drinking system.
• Compact dimensions - at 33.5 cm by 22.5 cm and 29 cm high, the tank fits standard header positions.
• 20 pieces per carton - the packing keeps freight predictable for container orders and simplifies stock handling.

Materials and Quality

The tank is molded from impact-resistant ABS, a compound chosen because it keeps toughness even when bumped by tools or crates. The scale window is molded into the front face with red graduations that stay readable over years of use, and the printed logo and system marking resist wiping off during cleaning. Every unit is leak-tested before packing, and the carton protects the corners so the tank arrives without cracks. The cream-colored finish also hides the small water marks that build up on a header tank over a season, which keeps the unit looking tidy inside the house. The ABS compound also withstands the disinfectant washes used between flocks without fading or cracking at the corners.

How to Use and Maintain

Mount the tank at the header position above the drinking line, connect the inlet from the water source and the outlet to the line, then open the water supply. Watch the scale window to confirm the level reaches the normal range, and check it weekly during the growing cycle. Clean the tank between flocks by draining the water, wiping the inside, and rinsing; if the scale window becomes cloudy, wipe it with a soft cloth rather than an abrasive cleaner. Check the inlet connection each season for mineral deposits, since clean water at the header keeps the whole line healthier and reduces nipple blockage.

Applications

This impact-resistant tank is the standard header for nipple automatic drinking systems in broiler, layer and breeder houses. Its tough shell is especially suited to houses with high traffic or where the header is mounted low enough to be bumped. Farmers also choose it where well water with sediment enters the house, because the header tank gives particles a chance to settle before the line.

It also works for turkey, duck and goose farms, and it pairs with the filters, hoses and nipple fittings sold in the same range. Distributors can offer it as the header piece of a complete drinking line package for new house builds, and the scale window gives end customers a clear reason to choose this model over a plain box.
