FAQs of 3000L Chocolate Holding Tank:
Q: How does the insulation in the 3000L Chocolate Holding Tank benefit chocolate processing?
A: The tank is insulated with either polyurethane foam or mineral wool, both of which help maintain consistent product temperatures. This reduces energy usage, minimizes heat loss, and ensures the chocolate remains within the ideal processing range, preserving its texture and quality.
Q: What cleaning and maintenance processes are available for this chocolate tank?
A: The tank supports CIP (Clean-in-Place) cleaning for effortless sanitation. It also includes a manhole for manual inspection and cleaning, and the removable top cover with gasket sealing simplifies both inspection and maintenance routines.
Q: When should the agitator speed be adjusted and for what purpose?
A: The variable speed (15-50 RPM) anchor-type agitator with a food-grade scraper allows you to adjust mixing intensity based on your production needs. Lower speeds prevent product separation during storage, while higher speeds ensure even mixing during processing or after ingredient additions.
Q: Where is this chocolate holding tank typically installed?
A: This tank is floor-mounted and designed for use in food production facilities such as chocolate factories, processing plants, or industrial kitchens. Its dimensions and configuration make it suitable for spacious, hygienically managed production environments.
Q: What safety features are integrated into the design?
A: For safe operation, the tank includes over-temperature and over-pressure alarms. The tank is also constructed with food-safe stainless steel and incorporates a sight glass with a scale for easy level monitoring, ensuring consistent and safe chocolate processing.
Q: How does the chocolate tank comply with food safety standards?
A: Constructed from food-grade stainless steel and equipped with a food-grade stainless steel DN50 outlet valve, the tank meets stringent FDA and EU food safety regulations, ensuring that all chocolate processing and storage operations remain compliant.
