Description
The tank is constructed of 1/4″ steel plate with 3″ channel iron rim, all welded construction. It is 5′ wide x 3′-0″ deep. Mounted on separate sturdy steel stand with platform, handrail and ladder. Special tanks of any length are made on special order. Platforms are available in open-grate floor plate or concrete fill, as ordered. Tank is fitted with 4″ drain and gate valve.
Specify height from floor to top of rim and type of platform.
Since the maintaining of an even degree of temperature in the tank is of great importance, it is recommended that certain devices, illustrated in the sketch, be used. To eliminate any dead spots in the water, which would tend to cause a variance in temperature, we recommend the use of a circulating pump, as shown. The size is dependent upon the size of tank and the rate of kill. For visual check of the temperature, we recommend the use of a dial thermometer, or a temperature recorder which provides a permanent record of the scalding temperatures.
