This tank is designed for bright beer maturation, conditioning, carbonation and short-term storage in distilleries and breweries. It's used to fine-tune carbonation, clarify and cold-condition beer before packaging.
The shell and vessel internals are manufactured from food‑grade stainless steel (typically SS304 or SS316L on request) to ensure corrosion resistance and hygienic surfaces suitable for beer and spirit contact.
6000L refers to the nominal gross vessel capacity. Usable working volume can be slightly less depending on the headspace, internal fittings and any required CO2 blanket; usable volume is confirmed in the specification sheet.
Yes — it can be configured and certified as a pressurizable brite tank for carbonation and serving. Typical working pressures are selectable (e.g., up to 3.0 bar standard) and pressure relief/safety valves are fitted per customer requirements and applicable regulations.
Standard fittings often include a beer outlet/racking arm, sample valve, safety/pressure relief valve, manhole, sight glass or level indicator, CIP spray ball(s), glycol cooling jacket ports, thermowell/temperature probe pocket and tri‑clamp/DIN sanitary connections. Final list is configurable.
Cooling is provided via an external or internal glycol jacket (or built-in cooling coil). Typical operating temperatures for bright tanks range from approximately -2°C to +25°C depending on refrigeration system and configuration.
Interiors are polished to a hygienic finish suitable for bright beer, commonly Ra ≤ 0.4 µm (electropolished available on request) to minimize microbial buildup and ease cleaning.
Tanks for the EU market can be supplied compliant with relevant standards such as the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) and CE marking where applicable. Specific certification (PED module, material certificates, EN standards) can be provided per order.
Typical insulation is polyurethane foam (PU) with stainless steel cladding for thermal efficiency and condensation prevention. Insulation thickness and external cladding options can be customized.
The tank is designed for Clean‑In‑Place (CIP): automated spray balls and sanitary drains allow recirculating cleaning solutions. Regular maintenance includes inspecting seals, valves, gaskets and performing passivation or sanitization as part of routine brewery SOPs.
A level, load‑bearing concrete pad or steel frame sized to the tank footprint and weight (full) is required. Lifting points and anchoring details are provided in the technical drawing package; factory assistance for onsite installation and commissioning can be arranged.
Typical manufacturing lead time is 6–10 weeks depending on customization and current order book; shipping and import can add several weeks. Exact lead time is provided at quotation and depends on certification, fittings and finish.
Yes. Diameter/height ratio, pressure rating, material grade (304/316L), internal finish, insulation, jacket type, valve brands and instrumentation (temperature transmitters, pressure gauges, CIP valves) can all be customized to your process requirements.
