Bulk Live Holding Tank
MODEL – MC250
The MC250 is the smallest bulk holding tank in the Austmarine range, and has been created due to the Hospitality and Seafood industry requesting a mini Bulk Holding Tank that can fit into smaller areas, less accommodating spaces. This fully self-contained, compact unit is specifically designed for the back of house kitchens, small scale operators and small remote catching locations, and has all the technological features to effectively bulk hold live seafood. This model’s design offers the ability to switch off one pump when holding light loads of live product. The design of the refrigeration unit provides lower operating cost. The water temperature, the operating mode of the equipment, and the water level sensor are all controlled by the electronic sensors that provide a visual message. The sophisticated microprocessor control is programmed to control water temperature to within 0.1°C, has low and high temperature alarm, and protects the compressor from short cycling from power fluctuations.
MODEL- MC500
The MC500 is a fully self contained unit with the machinery and pipe-work located under the structural frame. This allows for the flexibility of draining the water and moving the unit to another site if required (i.e. – they are not fixed in any way). The MC500 fibreglass tank, vessels and PVC pipes have a high level of vapour seal insulation to reduce running costs. The tanks employ a sophisticated control system that is fully programmed, with high and low temperature alarms, anti short cycling from power fluctuation, low water alarms, and protection against equipment failure. The system is so effective it can hold live lobster in a hibernated state for up to 12 weeks with no weight loss. This unit is rated at holding 500kg of live product per 24 hours. The MC500 is the perfect model for entry-level local wholesale or for retailers who wish to increase buying power and hold stock.
MODEL- MC1000
The MC1000 is also a fully self contained unit with all the machinery located in an enclosed Plant Room on the end of the skid base. The tank is designed at the ideal working height for moving large volumes of live seafood in and out of the tank. The MC1000 is also easily drained and moved to a new location. The control system on the MC1000 is even more advanced than the MC500, with programmable high/low temperature alarms, anti short cycling from power fluctuation, low water alarms, pump protection devices and alarms, automatic fan cycle control and protection against equipment failure. The MC1000 is ideal for import/export or large wholesale operations and is suited for handling live products of up to 1000kg per 24 hours.
MODEL- MC5000
The MC5000 is the largest bulk holding tank in the Austmarine range and is designed to facilitate the throughput of up to 5000kg of live products per 24h period. The tank is 13M long with twenty four individual holding compartments. The electrical equipment is located in a machinery unit that is often recessed into a wall to make the most efficient use of space. The MC5000 is driven by seven magnetic drive pumps that massively aerate the water. The control system on the MC5000 has programmable high/low temperature alarms, anti short cycling from power fluctuation, low water alarms, pump protection devices and alarms, automatic fan cycle control and protection against equipment failure. As the MC5000 is too large to transport, it is assembled to its final stage on site. The MC5000 is ideal for operators who move very large volumes of live seafood or those who choose to buy large volumes or aquaculture operations and value-add on valuable stock.
