Standard Pressure Reducing Water Tank Red Lid

Product Overview

The standard pressure reducing water tank with red lid is the header reservoir of a nipple automatic drinking system, molded in a white body with a bright red snap-on lid. Model SL-06, the tank carries a white outlet fitting on the side wall for connection to the drinking line, and its body measures 38.5 cm across the top, 22.5 cm deep, stands 26.5 cm high with a 30.5 cm base, weighing 723 g. Each export carton holds 35 pieces, a packing size that keeps freight cost predictable for distributors.

The red lid seals the top against dust and light, which helps keep stored water cleaner inside the tank. Because the tank holds water above the line, every nipple along the run receives water at the same steady gravity pressure. The white body is easy to wipe clean during turn-around, and the red lid stands out on a house wall so crews can find the header at a glance. The red cover also seals out dust and light, which keeps stored water cleaner between refills and discourages algae growth inside the tank during warm summer months.

Key Features and Benefits

• Bright red lid - the snap-on red cover seals out dust and is easy to spot during maintenance rounds.
• Side outlet fitting - the white outlet on the body wall connects directly to the drinking line pipe.
• Even gravity pressure - the header design keeps nipple drip rate consistent along the whole run.
• Smooth white body - the plain wall wipes clean quickly between flocks.
• Standard dimensions - 38.5 cm by 22.5 cm and 26.5 cm high fit common header mounting positions.
• 35 pieces per carton - the packing density keeps wholesale freight efficient.

Materials and Quality

The body and lid are molded from durable plastic chosen for a smooth, food-safe-looking surface that resists the moisture of a drinking system. The red lid is ribbed on top for grip when lifting, and the side outlet fitting is molded in place so it will not pull out under hose tension. Every tank is leak-tested before packing, and the 35-piece carton is arranged so the lids do not get crushed during ocean transport. The white body also hides limescale marks better than a dark tank, which keeps the unit tidy looking over seasons. The smooth inner wall also makes the between-flock wipe-down quick and effective. The side outlet fitting is sized for the standard drinking line hose, so no adapter is needed.

How to Use and Maintain

Mount the tank at the header position, connect the inlet water supply, and push the drinking line hose onto the side outlet fitting with a clamp if needed. Open the supply slowly and check the outlet joint for leaks. Weekly, lift the red lid briefly to confirm the water level, and at turn-around, drain, wipe and rinse the inside. If water starts dripping from the outlet joint, tighten the clamp or replace the seal. The red lid can be lifted in seconds for a quick level check during morning rounds. The smooth white body also shows any water stain early, which reminds crews when a wipe is due. Keep the inlet hose free of kinks so refill pressure is not reduced during peak drinking hours in summer.

Applications

This red-lid tank is a standard header for nipple drinking systems in broiler, layer and breeder houses, where a simple, dependable reservoir is preferred. It suits long lines because the gravity pressure stays even along the run, and the red lid makes inspection quick.

It also works for turkey, duck and goose farms, and it pairs with the filters, hoses and fittings of the same range. Distributors often stock it as the default header, since the red lid gives a recognizable, consistent look across their drinking line packages. It also pairs naturally with the blue-capped filters and standard hose in the same range, so dealers can quote one complete set for new house builds and turnkey projects. The red lid also makes stock checks faster in the warehouse and at the installation site during turn-around between flocks.

A: The bright red lid seals out dust and makes the header easy to locate on a house wall during maintenance rounds, which saves search time.

Q3: How often should the tank be cleaned?

A: A quick wipe and rinse between flocks is usually enough; check the inside weekly and clean sooner if water looks cloudy or carries a visible sediment layer.

Q4: How many tanks are packed per carton?

A: The standard export packing is 35 pieces per carton, which helps us quote container freight accurately for your order and plan mixed loads with filters and hoses.
