Abstract:
A transfer system for transferring liquid from a liquid source to a reservoir which includes a fluid conduit having a coupling attached to an inlet end and an anti-siphon apparatus, having an upper and lower end, attached to an outlet end. The coupling may be a quick-connect coupling. The anti-siphon apparatus is mounted on the inlet end of the fluid conduit such that the lower end is located below the minimum water level of the reservoir and the upper end is located above the maximum water level of the reservoir. In addition, the upper end of the anti-siphon apparatus is located above the liquid outlet of the fluid conduit. The anti-siphon apparatus includes a baffle suitable for maintaining an air gap between water in the reservoir and the liquid outlet. Optionally, the transfer system may have an apparatus for removably mounting the system to an object such as a seal gate.
