yes we have Col, but the thread is different to ll the one we have looked at so far, may be because it is made in France ?? thanks you Mez

Contact the person you bought it from ?? Maybe a lesson to others to check where manufactured and if parts are available.
I don't use the big connection on mine, I blanked it off and just use the small one to fill and empty the bladder.

Thank you all for your replies.
Peter , we did find the same distributor in Sydney after looking up on their website ( we are in NSW), worth a phone call and in the meantime we will try John's your suggestion , my husband was also thinking of replacing the big connection by another small one .
Hopefully it will work.

Their website shows the inlet to be 38 mm. Their fittings page shows the 12 mm hose fitting to be 3/8" and the 38 mm hose fitting to be 1 1/2" - these could be British Standard Pipe or National pipe thread dimension threads. You can use those tables to sort out what they have used.
There is a distributor you could try at Ormeau.
