Bell siphon components

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to make the bell siphon shown here http://www.underthechokotree.com/index. ... &Itemid=37

I've got most of the parts mail order from Hansen's but can't find the 25mm diameter pipe riser with male threads on both ends. Also, finding pipe work for drainage in small lengths is also a mission. I've managed to get some clear PE tubing from Bunnings but because it's clear, it's not ideal.

At present because I couldn't find the risers, I am using a couple of drink bottles to create the bell and it's working .. sort of.

I'm using a water bottle at present in place of the riser. The water bottle cap fits nicely into the 25 mm female thread.

And then a juice bottle goes over the top ( don't drink soft drink so couldn't locate one of those 2L bottles.

And this is where I needed to connect the drain pipe
