MT VACUUM SIZING TANKS PRECISELY SIZE SMALL TO LARGE TUBE AND PROFILE MT Vacuum Sizing Tanks provide stable vacuum for precise sizing of tube and profile extrusions up to 4.5 inches {114.3 mm} in diameter. Water/air separation technology improves product tolerances and surface finishes and allows for repeatable quality and minimizes scrap. All models offer a high-efficiency plate heat exchanger; an improved spray bar and water level adjustment system; and a wide range of tank sizes and pump configurations. Manual motor starters are standard. WATER/AIR SEPARATION ENSURES VACUUM STABILITY Most vacuum sizing tanks use a single standpipe to maintain water levels and pull vacuum into the chamber. Pockets of water and air surging through the same line can cause a hammer effect and vacuum fluctuations that can harm the shape and surface finish of the product. MT sizing tanks eliminate this problem by using separate water and air pipes that lead to a closed water reservoir. Float valves in the reservoir maintain the water level below the vacuum pump inlet. The vacuum pump evacuates only the air in the reservoir, never the water, allowing optimum pump performance and minimizing surges in vacuum level. Easy to operate Built-in water-manifold system with water and vacuum valves are dedicated to each vacuum chamber. Quick dump valves drain the tank. Optional digital control offers automatic vacuum adjustment and in-line gauge or computer interface. Improved tank stability Redesigned to handle heavier pulling forces. Roller system eliminates tank rock. Heavy-duty shafts and bearings provide precise yet rigid longitudinal, vertical and side-to-side adjustment capabilities. Stainless-steel components The vacuum tank, water reservoirs, splash tray, drip trays and dome lid are stainless steel. Other surfaces are painted for corrosion resistance. Tank lengths 7 to 22 feet Wide range of sizes, from a 7-foot {2.1 meter}, 2-chamber tank to the 22-foot {6.7 meter}, 5-chamber tanks.
