The Combination Tank and Trough, introduced by Spacepac Industries is a sensible piece of farming equipment. It is used for livestock water supply.
The combination water tank and trough are strategically designed for placement of fresh water for livestock. Special considerations were taken into account in order to reduce the risk of water evaporation or livestock drowning. These water tanks and troughs have been founded and tested as quality farming equipment in the harsh climates of Western Australia for over 20 years.
The combination Tank and Trough can be a reservoir of fresh water for all types of livestock from cattle to sheep. This water tank and trough combination will allow livestock to have a clean and cool reservoir of fresh water at all times.
The 5,500 litre livestock water tank is mounted into a drinking trough. The water tank is 2,200 mm in height, while the trough has a 2,500mm diameter x 250mm depth x 280mm height. Overall the water tank and trough unit has a drinking width of 260mm.
This whole livestock farming equipment water unit is connected and maintained with a high quality plumbing and float system. This feature ensures that the water levels are maintained in the tank and trough all the time. Via a 50mm brass inlet, the quality plumbing has a maximum flow rate of approximately 212L/min, hence providing a very fast-acting float within the trough.
Besides having a removable manhole, this livestock farming equipment is manufactured for easy cleaning, via the sweep-out ramp and 50mm brass drainage bung. The trough can be conveniently swept of all debris, and drained with minimum effort.
For those worried that the water level will run low, the optional level indicator (which is installed at the top of the water tank) permits monitoring of the water level within the trough from a distance. As such, the water can always be replenished so that the livestock will always have a stable supply of water.
