Description
Annex Gravity Diesel Hose Kit
The Annex Diesel Gravity Hose Kit is a ready-made solution for the dispensing of diesel from a bottom outlet, gravity fed fuel storage tank. Gravity hose kits are a cost effective solution for dispensing fuel from a tank, as an alternative to a more expensive pumping system. This is a popular solution in the agricultural market, although many other industries do still use it.
This model of gravity diesel hose kit is available in a number of lengths from 3m to 6m, to cater for how high off the ground the tank is installed. It is made up of deluxe, anti-static soft wall hose, a Piusi Self 2000 manual nozzle and a 1” locking angle valve to open/close the fuel flow from the tank.
Features of the Annex Diesel Gravity Hose Kit:
- Diesel/oil resistant construction
- Annex anti-static soft wall with NBR cover
- Synthetic textile yarn reinforcement
- 1” M BSPT aluminium hose tails & ring ferrules
- Piusi Self 2000 aluminium manual nozzle
- 1” M x F locking angle valve (padlock not supplied)
- Supplied in a plastic labelled bag
- ID 25mm / OD 34mm
- Temperature -25°C/+70°C
- Different lengths available upon request
I’m looking for a diesel gravity hose kit with an automatic nozzle but can’t find one. Is this possible?
Only manual nozzles can be used within gravity fed installations, as the back pressure required for an automatic nozzle to open is unlikely to ever be achieved under gravity conditions. For this reason, gravity hose kits are always supplied with manual nozzles.
Can you use a flow meter with a gravity hose kit?
Yes, you can use a flow meter in a gravity fed installation, however it will only accurately count the fuel dispensed if the minimum flow rate of the meter is continuously achieved. You therefore need to be careful when selecting, as most flow meters’ minimum flow rate will be too high.
