What is a Mixing Tank?

Mixing Tank:

A mixing tank is typically used in photographic laboratories.  These tanks have three baffles to promote a mixing action as water passes through the tank. This design is to sufficiently dilute chemicals before the water flows out to sewer.

Viking Plastics’ above ground mixing tanks are manufactured from 6mm PVC and/or Polypropylene (PP).  Below ground tanks are manufactured from Polypropylene (PP) or Polyethylene(PE). Above ground mixing tanks are supplied with: a loose fitting lid, three (3) equally spaced baffles, a bracket for a Test Block and a sampling valve socket (above-ground only).  Below ground mixing tanks have metal access covers (supplied separately) fitted on top that can be removed by one man. Below ground access covers are available in various types including concrete in-fill, solid top and tiling edge. When ordering access covers, the weight load must also be specified (pedestrian, car or heavy truck). All tank dimensions and pipework positions conform to Trade Waste recommendations but may be arranged during manufacture to suit the installation requirement.

When space limitations dictate, equivalent capacity tanks can be manufactured to order.
