Sloped Bottom Mixing Tank
|
Specification |
Description |
Tank Type |
Sloped Bottom Mixing Tank |
Material |
Stainless Steel (SS304/SS316), Carbon Steel (CS), or any specified material based on application (e.g., food-grade, pharmaceutical-grade, etc.) |
Capacity |
Ranges from 50L to 50000L or custom capacities depending on the process requirements |
Tank Shape |
Cylindrical with conical or hemispherical sloped bottom |
Diameter |
Custom diameter based on capacity (e.g., 500 mm to 6000 mm) |
Height |
Custom height depending on diameter and capacity requirements |
Sloped Angle |
Typically 15° to 30° sloped angle, adjustable based on requirements (may vary for different materials and processes) |
Wall Thickness |
3 mm to 12 mm (varies depending on tank material, size, and application) |
Mixing Mechanism |
Agitator with motorized or manual drive (high-shear, low-shear, or magnetic drive depending on application) |
Agitator Speed |
10 RPM to 1500 RPM (depending on process and application) |
Agitator Type |
Paddle, Anchor, Rushton, or propeller-type agitator depending on fluid characteristics and mixing process |
Drive Type |
Electric motor-driven or pneumatic (can vary based on application requirements) |
Tank Pressure |
Atmospheric or pressurized (up to 10 bar, depending on process needs) |
Tank Temperature Range |
Ambient temperature up to 150°C or higher (with heating or cooling jackets for controlled temperature environments) |
Tank Jacket Type |
Single-wall, double-wall, or jacketed for heating or cooling |
Tank Insulation |
Optional insulation for energy conservation (e.g., fiberglass or mineral wool) |
Tank Outlet Type |
Bottom discharge, side discharge, or bottom slurry valve depending on application |
Inlet Type |
Top-mounted or side-mounted inlet (liquid or gas) |
Tank Lid |
Removable, hinged, or bolted (can include manway access) |
Level Indicators |
Float-based or capacitive level sensors (optional) |
Cleanability |
CIP (Clean-in-Place) or manually cleanable design with sanitary finishes for food/pharma-grade applications |
Seals & Gaskets |
Food-grade silicone, EPDM, or PTFE seals and gaskets (depending on fluid type and temperature requirements) |
Surface Finish |
External: Roughness Ra ≤ 1.6 μm; Internal: Ra ≤ 0.8 μm for sanitary and high-precision applications |
Support Legs |
Adjustable or fixed legs for stability (height-adjustable legs optional for customization) |
Baffles |
Optional internal baffles to aid mixing (for larger tanks or viscous fluid applications) |
Certification |
FDA, ASME, CE, or custom certifications based on industry standards |
Weight |
Varies based on material, size, and construction (e.g., 50 kg for small tanks to several tons for large industrial tanks) |
Electrical Requirements |
Typically 3-phase, 220V, 380V, or 440V AC depending on motor and agitator size |
Vessel Testing |
Hydrostatic pressure testing, leak testing, or NDT (Non-Destructive Testing) for integrity and quality assurance |
Drainage System |
Sloped bottom design to ensure complete drainage of material without leaving residuals |
Temperature Control |
Heating/Cooling jackets or coils with a separate control system for precise temperature regulation |
