As a key material in pharmaceutical production, the stability and safety of distilled water storage directly affect the quality control of subsequent drug production. The horizontal distilled water storage tank, combined with the characteristics of the pharmaceutical industry production scenario, focuses on practicality and reliability in structural design and functional configuration, providing strong support for the storage of distilled water in pharmaceutical enterprises. Recently, multiple equipment have been delivered and put into use.
1、 Adapt to production scenarios and enhance storage adaptability
1. Horizontal structure adapted to site requirements
Compared to vertical storage tanks, this horizontal distilled water storage tank adopts a horizontal layout, with a more flexible footprint, especially suitable for production scenarios where workshop height is limited or equipment needs to be compactly arranged. The length of the equipment can be customized according to the actual storage capacity of the enterprise, ranging from 5 cubic meters to 50 cubic meters, which can meet the daily usage needs of small and medium-sized pharmaceutical enterprises and also adapt to the centralized storage planning of large production bases.
2. The design of incoming and outgoing materials conforms to the rhythm of the assembly line
The inlet and outlet of the storage tank adopt standardized interfaces, which can be directly connected to distilled water preparation equipment, pipeline transportation systems, and production workshop feed ends, reducing material transfer links. At the same time, the discharge port is equipped with a liquid level control device, which can automatically adjust the liquid output according to the material speed of downstream production equipment, avoiding the problem of unstable feeding caused by improper manual operation and ensuring the smooth operation of the production line.
3. Insulation design adapted to temperature control requirements
In response to the need to maintain a constant temperature during the storage of distilled water, the outer layer of the storage tank is insulated with polyurethane, and the inner layer is made of 304 stainless steel material, which combines insulation and corrosion resistance. At room temperature, the temperature fluctuation of distilled water in the tank can be controlled within ± 2 ℃ without the need for additional energy consumption to maintain the temperature, which not only reduces the operating costs of enterprises but also conforms to the industry trend of energy-saving production.

2、 Focus on detailed design and build a secure storage defense line
1. Material selection ensures the purity of materials
The inner tank of the storage tank and all components in contact with distilled water are made of food grade 304 stainless steel, which has been polished to achieve a surface finish of 0.8um on the inner wall, reducing material residue and adsorption. At the same time, stainless steel material can resist slight oxidation during long-term storage of distilled water, avoiding the dissolution of tank wall materials and affecting water quality, ensuring the purity of raw materials for subsequent drug production.
2. Improve safety attachments and prevent risks
The equipment is equipped with multiple safety protection components: a breathing valve is installed at the top to balance the pressure inside the tank and prevent deformation of the tank due to temperature changes; Install an overpressure safety valve on the side to automatically release pressure when the pressure inside the tank exceeds the set range; The bottom is equipped with a sewage outlet, which facilitates regular cleaning of sediment impurities in the tank and reduces the risk of microbial growth. In addition, the tank body is also equipped with a liquid level gauge and a pressure gauge, which display real-time data on the material storage and pressure inside the tank, making it convenient for operators to monitor at any time.
3. Clean design reduces maintenance difficulty
In order to comply with the strict hygiene standards of the pharmaceutical industry, the storage tank adopts a welding process with almost no dead corners to avoid residual materials in the gaps caused by traditional welding methods. At the same time, a manhole is reserved on the top of the tank for operators to regularly enter the tank for cleaning and maintenance; The smooth design of the inner wall also reduces cleaning blind spots. Coupled with a high-pressure spray cleaning device, it can quickly complete the disinfection operation inside the tank, shorten equipment maintenance time, and reduce the operation and maintenance costs of the enterprise.
