What is a self-emptying tank
A self-emptying tank is a type of tank that allows the automatic emptying of the stored product very easily and almost without the use of manual labor.
They are very popular among wineries because of the convenience of using them as fermentation tanks. They are easy to clean as they allow the devatting of the mash (skins and other solid parts remaining after the alcoholic fermentation process) by gravity.
Intranox self-emptying tanks are custom designed and manufactured, however, all of them have a hydraulic or electric mechanism for emptying, making it much easier to completely remove the remains of the product, saving hundreds of hours for your plant.
This solves to a great extent the problem of the unloading of remains in large and medium-sized companies, since by simply activating a switch it is possible to achieve total emptying without the need for manual labor.
Main Benefits of Intranox Self-Draining Tanks
If you are still thinking about having a self-emptying tank from Intranox, pay close attention to what you can achieve with them:
Labor Cost Reduction
Thanks to these tanks you will see how the time and labor you spend on the stripping process is considerably reduced. Especially if you are in the wine industry. Since our tanks can be equipped with an automatic pumping kit, you will see how one person can handle the entire process alone. This also increases the safety of your employees.
Shorter Discharge Times
Automatic pump-out fermenters are the perfect solution for winemakers in large facilities who struggle with unloading large fermenters. The amount of time saved compared to manually unloading large tanks is unparalleled.
Self-Draining Tanks 100% Tailored to Your Needs
We cater directly to your space and size requirements so all of our tanks are custom made. Among the options to be configured are not only the dimensions and type of stainless steel but also structural elements such as the number of legs, cooling jackets, sizes and number of inlets, cleaning system, pumping frame, helicoidal pump, rotating diffuser, stairs with fear remover, agitators, walkway support, etc...
Advanced Automation Technology
Our technology is simple but effective. Two stainless steel paddles rotate on top of an internal reverse truncated cone and completely empty the fermenter with ease. The paddles are controlled by a bottom-mounted gearbox and motor. The pomace discharge is uniform and gradual throughout the operation. A manhole mounted on the sloped bottom allows the pomace to be discharged directly into a suitable conveyor, container or pump.
