The slurry tank can be fabricated from stainless steel 304/316, carbon steel, or polypropylene. The choice depends on the slurry's chemical compatibility and abrasiveness. For corrosive slurries, 316L stainless steel is often specified. Always confirm the material grade with the manufacturer for your specific application.
The nominal capacity ranges from 1 to 10 m³, selected based on the filtration cycle volume. The actual capacity required depends on the process throughput and the desired residence time. Verify the exact capacity needed with your process engineer and the tank supplier.
The agitator speed is adjustable from 30 to 120 rpm, typically via a variable frequency drive (VFD) or gearbox. The speed is set to keep solids suspended without causing excessive shear or vortexing. The optimal speed depends on slurry viscosity and tank size, so it should be determined through testing or manufacturer recommendations.
Relevant standards include, ASTM A240 for stainless steel plates, GB/T 709 for steel plate dimensions, IEC 60034 for motor performance, IEC 60038 for voltage ratings, IEC 60529 for ingress protection, and ISO 1302 for surface finish. These standards serve as procurement references; they do not guarantee compliance unless verified by the manufacturer.
