Placing the tank
Before placing
If the free area above the tank in the dairy is insufficient, then put the agitator blade(s) inside the milk
vessel before placing the tank inside.
Directions
Put the tank in the dairy, bearing in mind the local regulations and the following directions:
The tank must be placed in a frost-free area.
Put the tank (together with the floor plate) on a sturdy and hard underground (concrete or tiles), which
can take a pressure of 12 N/mm² minimum.
Keep at least 0.6 metres around the tank (including e.g. steps, operator console, built on cooling
machine,…) free for cleaning it.
The space between the ceiling and the top ladder step should be min. 2m.
If necessary, you should install a ladder or platform in order to let the installer have access to the milk
entry point without risk.
Preferably, the door should be 20% wider than the maximum width of the milk cooling tank.
There must be a drain on the side of the milk outlet.
Preferably place the tank with the outlet towards a door opening to facilitate milk collection.
There must be sufficient ventilation and lighting in the dairy.
