DURAPRIDE®

FIELD DRINKER

PRECISE MEDICATING * PUTS WATER WHERE YOU NEED IT

We're Better at the Details

Sure, you can buy plastic tanks that hold water from several sources. Brower gives you built-in easy-anchor notched flanges, more capacity (find another 85 gallon drinker), the boldest gallon markers and a handy fill line in the trough. If you talk to other manufacturers, ask them if their fill markers include the water in the trough and if so, at what depth. We give you precise medicating. Take a look at our other details. . .

Port allows sturdy fill valve installation. Optional Model 150PP valve. Add your own plumbing as specified on instruction sheet. No need to drill a hole in your tank.

Four notched flanges for easy anchoring. To anchor, use our optional USA Choice Stakes. Four 14 inch x .5 inch (36 cm x 1.3 cm) cuts. Order Model PS1.
For permanent installations, order optional Model 383344 stainless steel anchor package: four anchor bolts, four plates, four flat washers, four nuts (all stainless steel).

Use a 250 watt cast aluminum de-icer in the trough or equivalent. Use a thermostatically controlled heater designed for use with polyethylene in the tank. Electrical supply card threads through port. Either option will work for you. The trough option, will do a better job with minimal drinking activity (less than say 7 head). Select the option that results in the easiest, most secure hookup for your particular operation.
Warning All electrically heated waterers must be installed by a qualified electrician and must be properly grounded. Failure to follow these and other procedures could result in electrocution of human beings and animals. Read and follow instructions.
