Steamer Tanks
Precision-Engineered Steamer Tanks
Reliable, Energy-Efficient Sterilisation Solutions for Your Production Needs
Our steamer tank range represents a product that has been in development for several months, after receiving requests from existing customers.
It’s main purpose would be for the sterilisation of a media used in the production of something else: e.g the substrate used to grow mushrooms on.
The steam is created at the bottom of the tank, using 2 x 3kW elements which run from a regular 240v supply. We use a stainless ball float to ensure that the water level remains low enough to boil rapidly, and also to ensure that the tank never boils dry. A connection is included for a cold water supply to make this easy to do.
Above the boiling water, we add a large disc of stainless steel dotted with small perforations which will allow the steam to pass through, and as it covers the diameter of the tank, is a platform where your media can be placed.
Also included is full insulation.
It’s important to retain as much of the energy that you supply as possible, in order to keep costs under control. Our 50mm thick insulation is so effective that the outside of the tank will be cool to touch despite the high temperature that exists inside. This insulation is added to all sides of the tank & lid.
Our steamer tank range starts at 200L and goes up to the massive 1000L, which stands at 2 metres tall. All tanks have the same features as are described above.
