Dissolving Systems

Overview

Acrison’s Dissolving Systems are used to produce solutions or slurries through efficient mixing of dry materials (chemicals) with water. Acrison Volumetric Feeders are used to meter dry chemicals into either a Dissolving Tank or a Wetting Cone (depending on the application and the material being fed), and are supplied as complete units. 

Dissolving Tanks

Features/Benefits

  • Full Cover with Inspection/Port Chemical Feed Inlet – allows visual inspection of solutions or slurries
  • Various Baffle Configurations – ensure optimum retention time for complete mixing of chemicals (baffle configuration is dependent upon application parameters)
  • Dust and Vapor Remover – eliminates dust from escaping; ensures safe environment for user
  • Mechanical Mixer – provides proper mixing energy to create a homogeneous solution
  • All Steel Construction – provides long-term reliability with minimal maintenance requirements

Specifications

Standard Construction
  • All tanks are available in 304 or 316 stainless steel with a minimum of 11 gauge metal thickness
  • Available in standard sizes of 50, 100, 150 and 200 gallons.  Larger sizes are available on special order.

Options

  • Solenoid valves, level probes, float valves, rotometers and other related equipment
  • Hydraulic mixing jets constructed of PVC pipe with 304 stainless steel jets
  • Surface jets to enhance wetting and dust control
  • Accessories to produce constant strength solutions or slurries

Wetting Cones

Features/Benefits

  • Full Cover with Overflow Connection – helps contain dust and prevents messy spills should an overflow condition occur.
  • Swirling Water Vortex – Provides a large amount of surface area for proper wetting of chemical without clumping
  • PVC Eductor – Ensures complete mixing and transports the solution or slurry to the point of application

Specifications

Standard Construction
  • Wetting cone is constructed of 316 stainless steel; eductor is PVC.
  • Small model wetting cone is capable of wetting a maximum of 3 cubic feet per hour of chemical.  Large model is capable of 10 cubic feet per hour.
  • Wetting cone is used primarily for powdered activated carbon or potassium permanganate, but may also be used for other select chemicals.

Options

  • Booster pump for applications with low available water pressure
  • Solenoid valves, level probes, pressure switches and other related equipment for automatic operation
