AutoPot Flexitank 400L

Product detailed description

AutoPot Flexitank 400 l - tank for 24 to 60 pots

For large setups, the key is a sufficient water supply and as little walking to the tank as possible. AutoPot Flexitank 400 l is a large-capacity foldable tank for watering or rainwater for extensive AutoPot setups. Even with its large volume, it can be assembled without tools and folded away after the season.

What Flexitank is

AutoPot Flexitank is a foldable reservoir for watering or rainwater for AutoPot self-watering systems. You can assemble it in a few minutes without tools and fold it away just as easily - which makes it easy to store and transport. The tank is made of durable plastic reinforced with battens inserted into the seams, has a drain valve in the lower part compatible with standard hoses, and a lockable zip lid at the top that protects the water from light and dirt, thereby limiting algae growth.

How Flexitank works with the AutoPot system

Flexitank is the reservoir for the entire setup. Place the filled tank on a flat and smooth surface so that the plastic is not damaged, and at least 150 mm above the highest AQUAvalve valve - gravity then takes care of the watering distribution itself, without a pump, electricity or a timer. You can connect Flexitank directly to the 16 mm distribution for 1Pot, 1Pot XL, Easy2Grow and tray systems, and to the 9 mm distribution with AQUAvalve5 via a 16-9 mm reducer. Monitor the water level and top up the tank when it drops to roughly 1/3; never let it dry out completely.

For what size setup

A volume of 400 l supplies roughly 24 to 60 pots - for example 1Pot for 24 pots or the large 1Pot XL for 60 pots. For this size, use a 16 mm hose for the distribution. The volume overview is in the Flexitank category.

Dimensions and parameters

Maintenance and warranty

Store the tank clean and dry. At the end of the season, rinse it out, especially if you have added fertilisers to the watering solution - this will reduce deposits and algae growth. Keep the zip lid closed so that dirt and light do not get into the solution. The manufacturer provides a one-year warranty for manufacturing defects.

Connection and accessories

To close the outlet, the tap for FlexiTank is suitable, for connecting the distribution the assembly quick connector and assembly blanking plug. To connect the 9 mm distribution with the AQUAvalve5 valve, use the 16-9 mm reducer with filter. The entire range of tanks is covered by the Flexitank category.

Frequently asked questions

How high should the tank stand?

At least 150 mm above the highest AQUAvalve valve. This gradient ensures that the watering solution flows into the trays by gravity alone, without a pump or electricity.

When should the tank be topped up?

As soon as the level drops to roughly one third of the volume. Never let the tank dry out completely so that air is not drawn into the distribution.
