DISSOLVING TANKS
Designed to effectively dissolve all applicable chemicals, the standard Acrison Dissolving Tank is constructed of 316 stainless steel to
provide a high degree of strength, resistance to corrosion, and long
life. In certain applications, other materials of construction can be
provided, but these should not be considered as an equal to 316
stainless steel.
WETTING CONE
The wetting cone was specifically designed for wetting powdered
activated carbon; however, it can also be used to wet dry materials such as diatomaceous earth, potassium permanganate and
magnesium oxide at generally low feed rates. This does not restrict
the use of a dissolving tank to produce a slurry of any of the chemicals, although when using a dissolving tank, a mechanical mixer is
recommended. As standard, the Wetting Cone is constructed of 316
stainless steel.
CHEMICAL DENSITY
Chemical densities can vary over a wide range making it impractical
to size feeders and hoppers exactly. However, the densities stated in
the chart are approximate working densities that can be safely
used for sizing feeders and hoppers.
DISSOLVING TANK SIZING
When applicable, there will be listed, the recommended water to
chemical ratio stated in gallons of water per pound of dry chemical,
Using the following basic and simple guide, the proper flow of
materials can be successfully achieved:
a.) Small Storage Hoppers
When hoppers do not exceed a capacity of 10 cubic feet and
are designed with any sloping side being a minimum of 60
degrees from the horizontal, an electric or pneumatic vibrator can
be used to assist in promoting reliable product flow, but must be properly sized. These units are low in cost; however, extreme care must
be taken regarding proper hopper design and vibrator sizing for the
material being handled to prevent packing, bridging or even damage
to the hopper.
b.) Large Storage Hoppers
For the positive flow of material out of larger bins, Acrison
recommends a Vibrating Bin Discharger or a Multiple Auger/Agitator Bin Discharger as described below and on the next page.
Vibrating Bin Discharger
This unit has been designed to promote positive discharge of
dry solid products from a storage bin into an Acrison feeder.
Discharge is on a first-in/first-out basis and is accomplished
without compaction, degradation or attrition (refer to Design
Specification #1-200-0296).
The use of Vibrating Bin Dischargers require properly designed and sturdy bins with flexible connections between the
bin and the Vibrating Bin Discharger, and the Vibrating Bin
Discharger and the feeder.

As is the case for most engineering literature, it is not practical to encompass every possible application without complicating this format. Should you have a particular question or problem, do not hesitate to contact your local Acrison Representative or Acrison directly.
NOTES:
1. When a gravimetric feeder is preferred, Acrison recommends a "Weight-Loss-Differential" Weigh Feeder as first choice (Models A405,
402, 404 and 407).
2. These are approximate working densities to be used for sizing the feeder and storage hopper.
3. When wetting carbon in a dissolving tank, use surface jet(s) and mechanical mixer.
4. When making a constant strength slurry, use a maximum of one pound per gallon.
5. When a dissolving tank is used, Acrison recommends a mechanical mixer.
6. Requires Lime Slakercontact Acrison.
7. Polyelectrolytes (see Bulletins #500, 512, 515 and Equipment Data Specifications 1-200-0552 and 1-200-0558).
8. Dry feed not recommendedhandle as solution.
