Receiving tank or weighing Damptank?
The milk dump tank receives and holds raw milk at intake, before it moves to cooling or processing. If you also need to weigh each farmer's delivery for payment, pair it with our bulk milk receiving scale (Damptank), which weighs milk at the reception point before it drains into the tank.
Specifying your tank
The 500-litre tank can be ordered online, and custom tanks are built up to 10,000 litres. Choose SUS304 stainless steel for most raw-milk handling, or SUS316 for better resistance to chlorides and strong cleaning chemicals. Options include integrated cooling, an agitator to stop the milk separating, and temperature, acidity and fat-content sensors.
