Agricultural Tanks For Different Jobs Around The Farm

Choosing the right agricultural tank is not simply a matter of selecting a capacity. The contents being stored, how the tank will be used and whether liquids need to be transported or fully drained all influence which design is most suitable.

Our new range includes dedicated options for several common agricultural applications.

Silage Tanks For Effluent Collection And Storage

Silage effluent must be collected and contained carefully. It is highly polluting if it escapes into soil, drains or nearby watercourses, so dependable storage forms an important part of responsible farm management.

Our silage tank range includes robust tanks designed for the collection and retention of silage effluent and other suitable farm liquids. With a choice of capacities available, farmers can select a tank that reflects their storage requirements and site conditions.

When selecting a silage tank, consider:

• The volume of effluent you expect to collect

• How frequently the tank will be emptied

• The available installation space

• Access for emptying and maintenance

• The manufacturer’s installation requirements

For site-specific guidance, always check the product specification and seek appropriate professional advice before purchasing or installing a tank.

Fertiliser And Molasses Tanks For Bulk Liquid Storage

Storing liquid fertiliser or molasses in bulk can make day-to-day farm operations more efficient, but the storage tank must be suitable for the intended contents.

Our fertiliser and molasses tanks provide practical options for agricultural businesses that need reliable on-site liquid storage. Different capacities are available to suit anything from smaller operations to farms with more substantial storage needs.

Before ordering, check the compatibility of the tank, fittings and any connected equipment with the liquid you plan to store. You should also consider the tank location, filling access and how its contents will be dispensed.

Applicator Tanks For Mobile Liquid Handling

Where liquids need to be carried and applied using farm machinery, an applicator tank offers a convenient, purpose-designed solution.

Direct Drainage supplies Enduramaxx applicator tanks in a choice of capacities, including options supplied with a mounting frame. Their horizontal design makes them suitable for a range of agricultural and industrial liquid-handling applications.

Some models feature a sump to help users drain more of the tank’s contents. This can reduce the volume of liquid left behind and make cleaning between uses more straightforward. Always refer to the individual product page to confirm the tank’s features, suitability and fixing requirements.

Sump Tanks For More Complete Drainage

Standard tanks can retain a small amount of liquid below the outlet. For applications where fuller drainage is important, a sump tank channels liquid towards a lower collection point.

The new sump tank range includes Enduramaxx models from compact 500-litre tanks through to much larger capacities. This gives farms and rural businesses flexibility when choosing a tank for their particular liquid-storage or handling system.

Potential applications vary, so the stored liquid, required fittings and operating conditions should all be checked against the specification of the individual tank.

Water Bowsers For Water Where You Need It

Not every part of a farm has easy access to a mains water supply. A water bowser allows water to be transported to fields, livestock areas and other remote parts of a site, helping reduce repeated journeys back to a fixed water point.

Our new water bowser range offers mobile water storage for a variety of agricultural and rural tasks. Depending on the chosen model and fitted equipment, a bowser may support jobs such as livestock watering, cleaning, irrigation or dust suppression.

When choosing a water bowser, think about:

• The required water capacity

• The towing vehicle and terrain

• Whether the water is for potable or non-potable use

• The outlet, pump and hose arrangement required

• Safe filling, towing and operating procedures

Always check the individual bowser specification and follow the manufacturer’s guidance before use.

Hose And Pipe To Complete Your Set-Up

A tank or bowser is only one part of a practical liquid-handling system. The correct hose, pipe and fittings help move water and other suitable liquids safely and efficiently between storage and the point of use.

Direct Drainage’s hose and pipe range makes it easier to source compatible components alongside your tank or bowser. Check the required diameter, length, pressure rating and material compatibility before ordering. If you are unsure which option you need, our team can help you identify suitable products for your intended set-up.

How To Choose The Right Agricultural Tank Or Bowser

Before purchasing, ask the following questions:

1. What will it hold? Confirm that the tank and all fittings are compatible with the intended liquid.

2. How much capacity do you need? Allow for your busiest periods and practical emptying or refilling intervals.

3. Will it be static or mobile? A fixed storage tank and a transportable applicator tank or bowser have different design and installation requirements.

4. Where will it be positioned? Consider ground conditions, access, nearby watercourses and space for filling, emptying and maintenance.

5. Which fittings are required? Check outlets, valves, pumps, hose and connection sizes as part of the complete system.

Taking time to answer these questions can help you narrow down the options and avoid choosing equipment that does not fit the job.
