Advanced Heating and InsulationThis chocolate holding tank features an integrated electric heater that delivers even heat throughout its contents, ensuring melted chocolate is kept at the desired consistency. Its 50 mm polyurethane foam insulation maximizes thermal efficiency and minimizes heat loss, maintaining the set temperature reliably while saving energy costs.
Efficient Mixing & HygieneEquipped with a top-mounted paddle agitator operating at a fixed 60 rpm, the tank ensures thorough mixing and prevents sedimentation. The food-grade stainless steel construction, polished to Ra 0.4 m, makes the surface easy to clean and resists corrosion. Manual cleaning access ports, a removable lid with a gasket, and sanitary tri-clamp discharge facilitate high standards of hygiene.
User-Friendly Operation and SafetySemi-automatic control through a digital temperature controller allows precise adjustment between 30C and 60C. Over-temperature protection offers safety during operation. The floor-mounted design includes adjustable feet for stable installation, and the tank supports atmospheric pressure processing, further ensuring safe and simple operation in commercial environments.
FAQs of 100L Chocolate Holding Tank:
Q: How does the integrated electric heater ensure uniform heat distribution in the chocolate holding tank?
A: The integrated electric heater is designed to distribute heat evenly across the tank, aided by both the fixed-speed paddle agitator and 50 mm polyurethane foam insulation. This ensures that all chocolate is maintained at a consistent, adjustable temperature, preventing hot spots and preserving texture.
Q: What materials are used in the construction of the 100L chocolate holding tank and why are they important?
A: This tank is constructed from food-grade stainless steel, which offers corrosion resistance, durability, and ensures that the chocolate remains uncontaminated. The polished surface (Ra 0.4 m) further encourages easy cleaning and prevents bacterial buildup.
Q: When should I use the over-temperature protection feature during operation?
A: Over-temperature protection automatically activates if the internal temperature exceeds the user-set limit, typically above 60C. This feature should be relied upon during extended or unattended melting processes to safeguard both the chocolate quality and operator safety.
Q: Where is the chocolate holding tank best installed for optimal performance?
A: The tank should be installed on a firm, level surface in a production area with ambient temperatures between 5C and 35C. Adjustable feet help to stabilize the tank and compensate for uneven flooring, ensuring safe and steady operation.
Q: What is the process for manually cleaning the tank after use?
A: After draining the chocolate via the sanitary tri-clamp valve, remove the lid for access. Use the available cleaning ports with food-grade cleaning agents, and optionally utilize hot water or steam for sterilization. The polished surfaces facilitate residue removal and maintain hygiene.
Q: How does the agitator benefit the chocolate holding process?
A: The fixed-speed, top-mounted paddle agitator gently stirs the melted chocolate at 60 rpm, ensuring a uniform consistency and preventing settling or scorching on the tank walls, which is crucial for quality maintenance in chocolate production.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this holding tank for businesses?
A: Businesses benefit from reliable temperature control, energy efficiency, corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance. The semi-automatic operation, safe design, and high hygiene standards make it ideal for manufacturers, exporters, and suppliers in the chocolate and confectionery industries.
