Description
Link two tanks. Keep an outlet for watering.
Bring two compatible IBC water stores together with a blue ½-inch hose link. A cap-mounted lever tap fits each tank; one tap has a second, independently controlled outlet for a separate watering line.
Choose 2m, 3m, 4m or 5m of hose to suit your route. The kit includes two S60x6 caps, a double tap, a single tap, three female hose connectors, a quick-connect outlet adaptor and PTFE tape.
How the tanks connect
Each black cap has an S60x6 tank thread and a ½-inch BSP female socket. The taps screw into those sockets. Two of the supplied female hose connectors secure the linking hose to the taps' male quick-connect plugs.
The double tap's second branch takes the supplied ¾-inch BSP female quick-connect adaptor. Its small lever controls that branch separately. The third female hose connector is available for an additional ½-inch hose, which you supply separately.
Measure the actual hose route, allowing for curves and access to the valves. The selected length is the hose supplied, not a guaranteed straight-line distance between your tanks. The blue hose is reinforced PVC.
Planning your tank connection
Will the caps fit any IBC outlet?
They fit S60x6 coarse-thread outlets. Check both tank valves before ordering; tank capacity and similar-looking cages do not identify the thread. The ½-inch BSP sockets connect the taps to the caps, not the caps to the tanks. This is a cap-mounted kit, without swivel extenders.
What changes between the four options?
The hose length: 2m, 3m, 4m or 5m. Each option contains two caps, one double tap, one single tap, three female hose connectors, one quick-connect outlet adaptor and one PTFE tape roll. Select your length above; the IBC tanks and a separate outgoing watering hose are not included.
Does the kit pump water between the tanks?
No pump is included. Flow depends on the water levels and your installation. Position the tanks on suitable stable bases, close their main valves before fitting, and check the threaded joints and hose connections as you gradually admit water. Keep the valve handles and hose connections accessible.
