Red Wine Mash Tank with Internal Plunger FD-IT

The well-tried immersion system via pneumatics is an integral part of the tank's interior, thus allowing to reduce the tank's height considerably.

The mounting of the pneumatic cylinder on the tank top requires more space. In low-ceilinged cellar rooms this can sometimes pose a problem and often there is no possibility to use such tank systems.

Our innovative ‘internal plunger’ solves this problem once and for all. The well-tried immersion system via pneumatics is an integral part of the tank’s interior, thus allowing to reduce the tank’s height considerably. At a comparable total height of the tank systems the reduction of height allows 50% more capacity.

Due to the new level adjustment of the immersion wings the minimum filling amount can be reduced up to 40% of mash tank’s nominal volume. This way even smaller amounts can be processed.
