As part of our long-term cooperation with one of the global producers of self-adhesive labels, we have once again produced a storage tank made of stainless steel. It is a pressure, vertical, three-walled tank with a capacity of 30 m3.
The tank is used to store synthetic rubber cement RH-9 under a pressure of 1 bar. The medium is classified as group 2 fluids. The materials from which the tank is made are approved for contact with this product. Elements having contact with the product are made of 1.4541 stainless steel, other elements are made of 1.4301 stainless steel.
The tank is equipped with a special spiral system of high-pressure heating coils which melt the medium. The system includes a spiral coil made of a half-pipe on the lower bottom and a jacket up to 55 cm high, and a system of spiral coils in the tank, consisting of the following sections:
- 2 sections of small coils,
- 6 sections of large coils
Thermal oil with a temperature of 200 ° C is the heating medium, and the operating pressure in the coils is 6 bar. The main task of the coil system is to maintain the appropriate physicochemical parameters of the agent in the tank, which is extremely important for obtaining the final product with the highest quality standards.
The storage tank is additionally equipped with:
- a ladder with a safety cage against falls
- removable maintenance platform at the tank
