Stainless steel carbonators
The carbonator is basically a stainless steel pipe of dimensions 8” diameter and 3. 5 feet height. It is fed water by a stainless steel triplex pump and Co2 through a pressure regulating valve. The whole assembly is mounted on a cast iron stand & base. The description of each part is as follows:
- The carbonator pipe is made of ss 304 grade. Water is fed from the pump into the top of the carbonator through a SS pipe set and a non-return valve. Co2 is fed into the carbonator from the bottom through a pressure regulating valve. Inside the carbonator is an ss shower, which sprays the water and ensures a good mix with Co2. Then there are a series of ss plates, which have holes in them. These effectively break up the water and facilitate further mixing. A gauge glass tube is provided to check the level of soda in the tank. The soda is now ready to be taken from a pipe at the bottom of the carbonator to the filling station.
- The contact parts of triplex pump are made of a stainless steel and a 1 hp iph/iiiph 1440 rpm motor drives it. The pump has a capacity of about 900 liters per hour. The pump consists of a dampener and an overflow regulator to ensure that the pump is not damaged when output pressure increases beyond its pumping capacity.
- The pressure regulating valve ensures that the Co2 is fed at a constant pressure into the carbonator. It has a safety release valve.
- The cast iron stand & base holds all the above three. It has holes to facilitate its foundation on the ground.
Large size carbonator:The carbonator is basically a stainless steel pipe of dimensions 12” diameter and 5 feet height. It is fed water by a stainless steel triplex pump and Co2 through a pressure regulating valve. The whole assembly is mounted on a cast iron base. The description of each part is as follows:
- The carbonator pipe is made of ss 304 grade. It is clad with a temperature protection foam over which is an aluminum sheet. Water is fed from the pump into the top of the carbonator through a SS pipe set and a non-return valve. Co2 is fed into the carbonator from the bottom through a pressure regulating valve. Inside the carbonator is an SS shower, which sprays the water and ensures a good mix with Co2. Then there are a series of SS plates, which have holes in them. These effectively break up the water and facilitate further mixing. A gauge glass tube is provided to check the level of soda in the tank. The soda is now ready to be taken from a pipe at the bottom of the carbonator to the filling station.
