Stainless Steel Tanks
Vigo is the UK agent for Speidel, the German stainless steel tank manufacturer.
Their tanks are made by efficient manufacturing processes that ensure very
high quality at competitive prices. They are easy to use and look extremely
impressive.
A wide range of tanks is available, suitable for fermentation, storage,
blending, mixing and most drink production applications. There is a broad
range of standard tank specifications and a detailed catalogue is available
on request.
Please contact us to discuss your specific
requirements.
Standard tanks are made from AISI 304 stainless steel with AISI 316 roof
panels. All surfaces are polished to a mirror finish and all welds are continuous
and free from dirt traps, allowing easy cleaning and maintenance. The top
and bottom panels and manway inspection opening are pressed to give seamless
surfaces, without dead spaces. The top vent arrangement allows the tank
to be filled to exclude air and the bottom V channel ensures complete draining.
Vigo endeavour to keep stocks of smaller tanks for immediate delivery
but most tanks are built to order.
Delivery times depend on the season but
can vary from 8 to 12 weeks or sometimes longer. Tank
accessories and optional fittings
include:
- External and internal heat exchange
panels for product heating or cooling
- Sight glass level indicator
- CIP sprayball for easy cleaning
of the inside of the tank
- Valves
- Sample tap
- Thermometer
- Top inspection door or bottom
door for discharge of e.g. red grapes
