Universal manifold for delivering hazardous liquid
The current invention teaches a universal manifold for delivering chemical liquids to a storage container. The universal manifold contains a universal mating system that enables a single manifold to attach to a number of variously sized storage containers that include a number of variously sized fill apertures. This enables the use of the same universal manifold for the delivery and collection of liquid chemical to the storage container at different times.
1. A universal manifold system for the delivery and collection of chemical liquid to and from a storage container; the universal manifold system comprising:
a storage container, with a fill aperture;
a threaded cap, for attaching to the storage container;
a manifold, for receiving a plurality of supply tubes;
a mating receiving surface, for securing the manifold;
a plurality of screws, for securing into the mating receiving surface of the manifold; and
a plurality of mating washers, whereby a single mating washer, that corresponds with a size of the fill aperture, is removably fixed to the threaded cap and the mating receiving surface.
2. A universal manifold system of claim 1 , whereby the single mating washer may be replaced by a larger mating washer to be removably fixed to a larger threaded cap and the mating receiving surface.
3. A universal manifold system of claim 1 , whereby the single mating washer may be replaced by a smaller mating washer to be removably fixed to a smaller threaded cap and the mating receiving surface.
4. A universal manifold system of claim 1 , whereby the manifold, comprises a single supply tube.
