5‑Litre Basic Tank with capacitive level sensor

This mate­r­i­al con­tain­er is used for stor­ing and con­vey­ing flu­id media.

The mar­co three-part stain­less steel media tank com­pris­es a base, an adapter ring and a lid. The adapter ring at the top of the base has an inte­grat­ed out­let noz­zle for the hose so that this is not attached to the lid, but guid­ed through the adapter ring into the media con­tain­er. This design is unique in the indus­try.

The tank has a capac­i­ty of up to 5 litres. The medi­um can either be filled direct­ly into the tank or placed in a con­tain­er in the tank.

With con­trolled and con­stant pres­sure, the liq­uid is con­veyed to the side out­let and ensures effi­cient dis­pens­ing for many com­mon media types to one or more dis­pens­ing valves.

Fur­ther­more, the 5‑Litre Basic Tank offers excel­lent chem­i­cal resis­tance and pro­tec­tion against con­t­a­m­i­na­tion and evap­o­ra­tion. The con­tain­ers used are eas­i­ly replace­able and also help pre­vent con­t­a­m­i­na­tion inside the tank.

Fea­tures

• Easy han­dling and clean­ing thanks to the unique three-part design
• Air sup­ply via a quick-release cou­pling with a 10 mm air hose in the lid
• Flu­id out­let via met­ric 8 mm lat­er­al con­nec­tion
• Inte­grat­ed vent­ing safe­ty valve and pres­sure gauge
• Option­al: inclined posi­tion pedestal with capac­i­tive fill lev­el sen­sor

Advan­tages

•  Thanks to the sep­a­rate adapter ring, the media hose can be thread­ed into the con­tain­er very eas­i­ly
  and only then is the lid put on and closed. This means that the tank lid can be tak­en off to refill the medi­um with­out the media hose hav­ing to be removed.
• The design of the out­let noz­zle makes it easy to con­nect or replace the media hose and enables easy clean­ing, even if the hose is con­t­a­m­i­nat­ed with liq­uid. If the hose is com­plete­ly soiled, it can be
  quick­ly and eas­i­ly replaced with a new piece of hose.
• In order to pre­vent con­t­a­m­i­na­tion or hard­en­ing of the mate­r­i­al, the medi­um can be filled into con­tain­ers and placed in the tank.
• Option­al: by inte­grat­ing an inclined posi­tion plat­form with a capac­i­tive fill lev­el sen­sor, the tank can be emp­tied or, if the fill lev­el is crit­i­cal, the medi­um can be topped up in good time. The
  sen­si­tiv­i­ty of the sen­sor is adjustable.

A patent appli­ca­tion has been filed for the design and func­tion of the tank.
