- Typical capacity
- This unit is specified at 1000 litres. For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 500 litres to several thousand litres.
- Material of construction
- Units of this type are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Jacketed design
- The jacketed design indicates suitability for temperature control, either heating or cooling, commonly via steam, hot water, or chilled water/glycol.
- Discharge
- A central bottom discharge is typical for complete drainage and ease of connection to downstream equipment.
- Insulation
- Jacketed tanks are typically insulated to maintain product temperature efficiently and reduce energy consumption.
- Agitation
- While not specified for this unit, holding tanks commonly feature agitators for product blending or to prevent settling.
- Power supply
- For jacketed tanks with potential agitation, power requirements are typically 3-phase, 400V, 50Hz for motors and control systems, with steam or chilled water supplied separately.
