Trying to ID this Glycol tank looks American made but has a British part number ticket. The manufacture code is ACC but I cannot identify that as an aircraft manufacture.

Yes it is seems to have a float inside certainly sounds like it.

Could this tank be for windscreen de-icing clycol rather than engine cooling. Is that a glass site window in it.

Thankyou. Thats a surprise I first thought it was a Hydraulic tank as its similar to others that i have, the light green colour made me think it was from the US. I guess the corporal who wrote out the stores ticket made a mistake.
