Auto Hose Filler Stops Process Tank Spills

The Auto Filler allows process tanks to be filled by hose and automatically shuts off water at the correct level.

Filling process tanks with hoses presents the risk of overflowed tanks. The Hose Filla prevents overfilling by shutting off the water flow from any hose automatically. When the tank liquid level reaches the auto shutoff valve, the float switch shuts down the flow using the same principle as a gas nozzle. The device clamps to a tank lip quickly and securely with locking pliers so water can’t go anywhere but in the tank. There is even an emergency overfill alarm in case something goes wrong.

Simply clamp the auto hose filler plate to a tank lip. It accommodates tank lip widths up to 4” and thicknesses up to 2” easily with locking pliers. Then adjust the depth of the float valve using the thumbscrew knob. Finally, just open the manual valve (the blue handle) to start water flow from the hose. When the liquid level reaches the float valve, the flow stops automatically.

Hose Filla clamps to a very wide range of tank lip sizes. The overfill alarm built-in has a 10 year life. Adjustable fill depth from 1-7 inches is easily adjustable with a thumbscrew. Locking pliers fold up compactly.
