Food Aseptic Tank
An aseptic tank holds sterile product, such as UHT milk or juice, between the sterilizer and the filling machine, so the filler can run at its own pace without breaking sterility. Our model is a stainless steel tank with a polished inside, a cooling jacket and a rating from full vacuum to 3 bar. We make it in China for export.
Why a line needs an aseptic tank
A sterilizer runs at a fixed rate, while fillers stop for reel changes and small faults. The tank acts as a sterile buffer between the two, so product is not sent back for heat treatment each time the filler pauses. It also lets one sterilizer feed more than one filler.
The product leaves the tank for the filling machine pushed by sterile filtered air, not by a pump. That keeps the product path closed and gentle on pulp.
Build of this aseptic tank
- Inner surface polished to Ra 1.0, approved to the China standard
- Insulated cooling jacket 50 mm thick, clad in stainless steel plate
- Jacket built for forced circulation of cooling water
- Bottom-mounted, bolted-on manway for inspection
- Maximum working pressure +3 bar; minimum -1 bar (full vacuum)
Material is typically food-grade stainless steel, and control ranges from semi-automatic to fully automatic by model. Tank volume is set to your production scale, so we size it with you.
Utilities to plan for
- Saturated steam at 7 bar: 540 kg/h
- Town water at 3 bar: 10,000 l/h
- Compressed air: 125 m3/h
- Electricity: about 7.5 kW
The table also has rows for barrier steam, condensate steam and chilled water listed only in kg/h and l/h with no figure. We confirm those rates at quotation once we know your product and cycle. Most plants also link the tank to a CIP system for cleaning and steam sterilizing between runs.
Sizing and export
We ask for your sterilizer rate, how many fillers the tank will feed, and the longest stop you expect on the filler. That tells us the buffer volume. Other vessels, such as the food insulated tank and food milk receiving tank, sit earlier in a dairy line.
The aseptic tank ships in seaworthy crating, and buyers in the Philippines and Sri Lanka usually ask us to confirm the Incoterm and destination port first. Our page on shipping and export documents lists the papers that travel with each order. For food-contact rules, many plants follow the Codex Alimentarius standards.
