ManWay
Option of top or side manway c/w hand-turn knobs provides fast and easy access to vessel. Top manway allows for easy dry hopping and thorough CIP. Side manway option includes a shadowless manway.
CIP (Clean-in-Place) Fitting
Static cleaning ball provides reliable cleaning performance and optimized flow pattern to minimize cleaning time and water usage. Optional rotating cleaning nozzles are also available. External clamped connection permits easy maintenance and replacement of the cleaning nozzle without entering the vessel.
CIP/VENT Arm
Provides easy connection point at comfortable working height for brewer. Includes pressure gauge and gas valve c/w quick-connect gas connection.
PVRV
Protects against over pressurization or vacuum collapse of tank. Self sealing after operation for reduced risk of beer contamination. Easy disassembly for cleaning.
Ladder Support
Locks into the rung on a standard ladder providing safe access to top of vessel.
Cladding
#4 Brushed polish sheets provide a show-piece finish suitable for high-pressure wash-down.
Adjustable foot pads
Tilting pads ensure full floor contact without gaps and simplify vessel leveling.
Dished heads
Provides rugged design against internal pressure and gentle curves for ease of cleaning.
Level Tube
Clear level tube is integrally mounted with calibration strip for ease of use and aesthetic appeal. Level tube is connected at the bottom drain via an isolation valve to indicate liquid level right to empty.
Insulation
Pour-in polyurethane foam insulation has a high insulating value and expands to fill every corner of the insulating space achieving a superior performance compared to fiber batts. Insulating foam is specially formulated for use with stainless vessels.
Cooling Jackets
High efficiency glycol cooling jackets are specially designed to create turbulence and improve heat transfer. Dual side jackets are located to minimize thermal stratification and maximize cooling performance for single or double batch sizes. (Note: 90BBL designed for triple batches)
Sample Port
Sanitary sample valve provides convenient location to draw-off beer.
Carbonation Port
Sintered stainless stone produces micro-bubbles, maximizing the interface area for gas diffusion and minimizing carbonation times. Carbonation stone includes gas isolation valve and quick-disconnect fittings. Stone is tri-clamped to vessel for easy removal and cleaning.
Thermowell
9” thermowell provides accurate vessel temperature for precision process control. The thermowell isolates the temperature sensor from the process, allowing the brewer to troubleshoot and replace the sensor without draining the vessel.
Drain
Drain sized for low turbulence product transfers and CIP without cavitation.
Head Space
Minimum 10% head space provides space for carbonation while minimizing CO2 losses. Height to diameter ratios optimized for efficient carbonation.
