Fittings and Accessories
Customised fittings and accessories to optimise storage performance, operation and maintenance.
Downlands tanks can be configured with a range of practical fittings and accessories to meet specific project, site and operational requirements. From complete tank drainage and controlled flow rates to maintenance, stability and pumping efficiency, each option is selected to support the intended use of the storage system.
Suitable across the Downlands tank range, these accessories help create a more complete storage solution for water, irrigation, firewater, agricultural liquid and effluent-management applications.
Features & Benefits
- Base drain connections - Enable the tank to be fully emptied when required, supporting efficient drainage, cleaning and reduced residual waste.
- Additional inlets and outlets - Available in sizes from 50mm to 300mm, allowing flow capacity and connection arrangements to be configured around project requirements.
- Level indicators - Provide clear monitoring of stored liquid levels and can be specified for covered and uncovered tank systems.
- Wash-down systems - Support more efficient cleaning and routine maintenance, particularly for operational and agricultural liquid-storage applications.
- Ultrasonic algae control - Optional ultrasonic systems can help manage algae growth on exposed water surfaces where required.
- Ground anchors - Provide additional stability in high-wind locations or where site conditions require enhanced securing of the tank structure.
- PTO and slurry tanker connections - Enable practical connection to pumping and tanker equipment, helping improve efficiency in agricultural and effluent-handling operations.
- Tank access hatches - Support safer installation and access arrangements by helping minimise the need for work at height.
- Anti-vortex plates - Support faster and more controlled pumping from the tank by reducing vortex formation during liquid extraction.
- Valves and pipework fittings - Allow each tank system to be integrated with associated pumping, irrigation, treatment or transfer equipment.
- Stainless steel fittings - Available in 304 and 316 stainless steel options, providing durable connection components suited to demanding operating environments.
