Batch & Mixing Tanks — Comprehensive Catalog
Batch and mixing tanks are engineered for active fluid blending — chemical dilution, fertilizer preparation, surfactant compounding, polymer make-down, and any process where you fill, agitate, dose, and discharge. Top-entry agitator port, anti-vortex baffles, and a total-drain bottom geometry distinguish a true batch tank from a passive storage vessel. Catalog covers Norwesco, Snyder Industries, Chem-Tainer, Enduraplas, and Bushman batch-grade SKUs.
Applications
- Liquid fertilizer batch make-down for ag spray application
- Pool / wastewater treatment chemical dilution and feed prep
- Polymer make-down for water treatment flocculation
- Surfactant compounding for cleaning, sanitation, and CIP chemistry
- Pharmaceutical / cosmetic make-down (verify FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 resin acceptance)
Compliance & Standards
Rotomolded to ASTM D1998 from FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 polyethylene. Agitator-equipped tanks must be specified with a properly rated top-mount agitator bridge — bridge load and torque go through the tank top, so OEM-rated bridges (not field-fabricated) are required. NSF 61 models available for batched potable-water chemistry.
Engineering & Selection
Three batch-tank specifications matter most. (1) Bottom geometry — cone (15°/30°/45°), dish, or flat. Cone gives total drain for clean batch-to-batch changeover; flat is cheaper but leaves residue. (2) Anti-vortex baffles — required for mixers above ~100 RPM, prevents air entrainment and improves blending efficiency. (3) Top manway and ports — agitator entry, fill, vent, level sensor, dosing return. Confirm port count and BSP/NPT thread spec against your instrumentation.
Freight & Delivery
Tanks ship LTL motor freight from the closest stocking warehouse to your delivery ZIP. Typical transit 5–10 business days. Liftgate available at delivery (per-shipment fee). Always inspect at delivery and note damage on the bill of lading before signing — that is the carrier claim trigger. Bulk-order consolidation reduces per-tank freight 25–40%. Get your LTL freight quote by ZIP, or call 866-418-1777 for same-business-day quoted pricing.
Sizing & Selection
Size capacity to your largest single batch + 15% freeboard for foaming and splash. Need help matching cone angle, agitator, and baffle config to your chemistry? 866-418-1777.
