DescriptionAnnex IBC Diesel Gravity Hose KitThe Annex Diesel IBC Gravity Hose Kit is a ready-made solution for the dispensing of diesel from a bottom out, gravity-fed installation. Gravity hose kits are a cost effective solution for dispensing fuel from an IBC, 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 3m or 4m lengths, to cater for how high off the ground the IBC is. It is made up of ¾” diesel delivery hose with heavy duty hose clops, a Piusi Self 2000 manual nozzle and a 60 x6 IBC bottom adaptor.Features of the Annex IBC Diesel Gravity Hose Kit:Diesel/oil resistant constructionAnnex anti-static soft wall with NBR coverSynthetic textile yarn reinforcementHeavy duty hose clipsPiusi Self 2000 aluminium manual nozzle c/w plastic hose tail60 x 6 F Buttress IBC bottom adapter x plastic hose tailSupplied in a plastic labelled bagID 19mm / OD 27mmAvailable in 3m or 4m lengths FAQsI’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.
