Key Criteria in Tank Selection
Process temperature, pressure, hygiene requirements and capacity should be evaluated together in tank selection. Correct material selection directly affects both production safety and maintenance costs.
Material Selection
| Application | Material | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Food / Pharma | 316L | High corrosion resistance, hygienic |
| General Process | 304 | Economical, general purpose |
| Chemical | Project-based | According to process conditions |
Capacity and Design
- Volume should be planned compatible with production line capacity
- CIP compatibility and minimum dead volume should be considered
- Pressure requirements should be determined at design stage
At Aydınox, TSE standard production and quality control processes are applied in all our tank projects.
