Stainless steel 60° conical trunk tank for wine 500 L with air floating lid

Conical trunk for wine 60° 500 L with air floating lid

Ideal for storing wine and liquid foods during fermentation. Made of Aisi 304 stainless steel (18/10 for foodstuffs), complying with all food safety regulations. Equipped with air float kit, two stainless steel ball valves, one 1" for total discharge and the other 1/2" raised from the bottom, for the withdrawal of the liquid without sediment.

Proper use of floating air lids:

1. always fill the tank with wine
2. place the stainless steel float lid on the surface of the wine
3. unscrew the valve on the pump to allow inflation
4. inflate the tube to about 0.7 atm
5. check that the tube is tight against the inner surface of the tank and close the valve of the pump
6. you should check the air pressure every 15 days.

If the tube does not maintain the pressure, please check:

1. that there are no holes
2. the attachment between the air chamber and plastic tube
3. that the air hose clamps are not loose
4. that the gauge is not broken
5. if the pump valve is not working
