Measuring Tank

Overview

1. Overview and Core Functions

A measuring tank is generally a storage tank that integrates metering functions. While it typically does not have a heat exchange function, we can design features such as heat exchange, stirring, and mixing according to specific requirements. We equip measuring tanks with various metering methods, including liquid level measurement, weighing measurement, and flow measurement. Each method comprises multiple implementations, for instance:
We implement liquid level measurement through glass tube level display metering, hydrostatic level gauge metering, differential pressure level gauge, etc.
We use either electronic scales or weighing modules for weighing measurement.
We recommend applying different metering methods for various materials. We also welcome non-standard customization.

2. Common Structure and Operation Modes

Most measuring tanks are single-layer vertical types; we design them to provide quantitative raw materials for batching. The most common type has a single-layer vertical structure with standard elliptical heads at both top and bottom. We design this type of measuring tank to operate in manual mode, automatic mode, or switch between the two.

3. Full Automatic Metering Functions

Full automatic metering ensures convenience and accuracy. It has functions including timed and quantitative material preparation, low material alarm, and automatic valve closure when the material reaches the required amount. Despite its simple structure, the measuring tank offers powerful functionality.

4. Multifunctional Measuring Tanks

Multifunctional measuring tanks not only have metering capabilities but also integrate stirring and heat exchange functions. This integration enables fully automatic processes such as stirring, liquid preparation, and metering.

5. Material, Nozzles and Polishing Treatment

We can configure nozzles on the tank as needed, including inlet/outlet ports, cleaning ports, and metering ports. Depending on the industry of use, we can subject the tank body to different polishing treatments such as pickling passivation, wire drawing, and fine polishing.
