Thickened Pressure Reducing Water Tank

Product Overview

The thickened pressure reducing water tank is an enlarged header reservoir for nipple automatic drinking systems, molded with a thicker white body and a bright yellow lid. Model SL-04, the front face is printed in red with the thickened enlarged tank marking, and the body measures 39 cm across the top, 24 cm deep, stands 27 cm high with a 31 cm base, weighing 969 g. The larger footprint gives the header a steadier stance on its bracket when full of water. Each export carton holds 30 pieces, which keeps freight efficient for wholesale orders of the heavy-duty tank in container loads and mixed shipments.

The larger size gives the header more stored water between refills, which suits long houses and high-density flocks where drinking demand peaks during the day. The thickened wall also feels stiffer under water pressure and resists dents from accidental bumps. Like the rest of the range, the tank holds water above the line so every nipple drips at a steady gravity pressure, even at the far end of a long run.

Key Features and Benefits

• Thickened body - the reinforced wall stays stiff under water pressure and resists dents in a busy house.
• Enlarged capacity - the 39 cm by 24 cm body stores more water between refills for high-demand flocks.
• Bright yellow lid - the yellow cover seals out dust and is easy to spot on the house wall.
• Red front marking - the printed text identifies the unit as the thickened enlarged tank.
• Even gravity pressure - the header design keeps nipple drip rate consistent along the whole run.
• 30 pieces per carton - the packing keeps freight efficient for wholesale orders.

Materials and Quality

The tank is molded with a thicker wall than the standard models, using a durable plastic compound chosen for stiffness and impact resistance. The bright yellow lid snaps onto the body and seals out dust and light, and the red front marking is printed to resist wiping during cleaning. Every unit is leak-tested before packing, and the 30-piece carton protects the larger tanks from crushing during container transport. The thicker wall also reduces swelling under summer heat, which keeps the outlet fitting aligned with the hose over seasons. The reinforced base stands flat on its bracket without rocking, even when the tank is full. The side outlet and inlet connections match the standard hose across the range, so no special adapter is needed when swapping from a standard tank in the same house or replacing an old unit after many seasons of service.

How to Use and Maintain

Mount the tank at the header position, connect the inlet supply and the outlet pipe to the drinking line, then open the water slowly. Because the tank holds more water, check the level weekly rather than daily, and confirm the refill cycle matches the flock's drinking peak. At turn-around, drain, wipe and rinse the inside; the thicker wall only needs the same simple cleaning as the standard models. Because the tank is heavier when full, make sure the mounting bracket is fixed firmly to the wall with the right screws. Keep the inlet hose free of kinks so the larger tank refills without delay during peak drinking periods.

Applications

This thickened tank suits long broiler houses, high-density layer sheds and breeder farms where water demand is high and a standard header would cycle too often. Its enlarged storage also smooths out pressure changes when multiple nipple lines draw water at once during peak hours.

It works for turkey and duck farms as well, and it pairs with the filters, hoses and fittings of the same range. Distributors offer it as the heavy-duty option for customers who already know their line runs dry by mid-afternoon. The yellow lid also helps crews distinguish the enlarged tank from standard models at a glance during maintenance rounds and prevents mix-ups with standard tanks in mixed sheds that run both sizes side by side in the same house.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Why choose a thickened enlarged tank?

A: The larger body stores more water between refills and the thicker wall resists pressure and dents, which suits long houses and high-demand flocks that drink heavily at midday.

Q2: How is this tank different from the standard models?

A: It is bigger, at 39 cm by 24 cm and 27 cm high, with a yellow lid and red front marking instead of the standard red or white lid on the regular models.

Q3: Does it connect to the same fittings?

A: Yes, the outlet and inlet connections match the standard drinking line hose used across the same range, so no adapter is required when replacing an older unit in the same house.

Q4: How many tanks are packed per carton?

A: The standard export packing is 30 pieces per carton, which helps us quote container freight accurately for your order and stack the heavier tanks safely in the container during ocean transport.
