Produced tanks are designed for:

  1. gases, liquefied gases, dissolved gases under pressure, steam and the liquids with the steam pressure, at the highest allowable temperature, to be higher than air pressure which is about 1,013 mbars but higher by 0.5 bars.
  2. Liquids with the working pressure, at the highest allowable temperature, no more than usual air pressure which is about 1,013 mbars but higher by 0.5 bars.

The liquids to be in the tanks [gases, liquids or gases and liquids] can be encountered into 1st or 2nd groups.

The 1st group liquid – covers dangerous liquid:

  1. extremely flammable,

There is a sterile valve with the vakuomanometre at the end of the pipeline together with a filter and a fermentative pipe. DIN11851 connectors are aseptic. The over and underpressure valves are installed. The supply joint DN20 is aseptic for washing and sterilizing with no unmounting.

The tanks for storing dangerous liquid

Application

Tanks are designed for storing some dangerous, harmful, toxic, poisoneous, caustic, flammable liquid according to the regulations.
