About this machine

This Buss-SMS GmbH Tank Container is a used tank and container — sometimes referred to as a process vessel or pressure vessel — designed to store, hold, and process liquids or concentrates under controlled pressure and temperature conditions. Buss-SMS GmbH Verfahrenstechnik, based in Butzbach, Germany, is a well-established manufacturer of process engineering equipment serving the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries, known in particular for mixing, evaporation, and containment technology.

This particular unit is identified as a concentrate tank (Konzentratbehälter), serial number /7, and is constructed from stainless steel grade 1.4541 (AISI 321), a stabilised austenitic stainless steel well suited to elevated temperatures and corrosive media. The vessel has a net capacity of 1,500 litres and a cylindrical shell measuring 1,000 mm in diameter by 1,999 mm in straight shell length. Both the top and bottom heads are dished, providing structural strength under pressure and facilitating complete drainage.

The vessel is rated for a working pressure of 0.5 bar and is also configured for vacuum operation. Maximum operating temperature reaches 350°C, making it suitable for demanding thermal process applications. A heating or cooling jacket surrounds the vessel, rated at a working pressure of 6 bar and with a jacket volume of 152 litres, allowing precise temperature management of the vessel contents.

The top of the vessel is fitted with multiple connections: one of 300 mm diameter, one of 150 mm, and two of 100 mm, offering flexible process integration. A 100 mm diameter outlet is located at the base. The total installed height of the unit is 4.1 metres, with a floor footprint of 2.0 by 2.0 metres.

The vessel is located in Barneveld, Netherlands, and was manufactured in 1994.
