And as distinct from the both the Chev CMP Condensor and the Ford CMP Condensor, these tanks fitted to the LRDG Trucks have a filler cap to presumably pre-fill the condensor to say 1/3 capacity to condense steam from first operation to maximise conservation of coolant.
As the inlet hose seems to go into the filler cap (from a 2Gal POL Can), and there are apparent variations in the cans, I would suggest that these are not factory made, but made in Base Workshops as a theatre modification.
