Equipment for Holding Tanks

Small equipment for holding tanks refers to essential tools and accessories used to maintain the optimal environment for live marine products (fish, shellfish, mollusks). These pieces of equipment ensure proper water quality management, circulation, oxygenation, and environmental parameter control, helping to preserve the freshness and vitality of marine products under optimal conditions. Whether in a supermarket tank, fish market, or wholesaler facility, these accessories play a crucial role in sustaining live products.


Key Features of Small Equipment:

  1. Water Filtration Systems:

    • Mechanical filters to remove solid particles from the water.

    • Biological filters to maintain a balanced aquatic ecosystem by promoting the breakdown of organic waste.

    • Activated carbon filters to remove impurities and unpleasant odors.

  2. Oxygenation Systems:

    • Air pumps and air diffusers to provide oxygen to the live products, ensuring fish and other species receive the necessary oxygen.

    • Column aerators or oxygenation stones to increase dissolved oxygen levels in the water.

  3. Water Circulation and Wave Systems:

    • Circulation pumps to create water movement, simulating a natural marine environment.

    • Wave systems to replicate the natural conditions of marine habitats.

  4. Heating and Cooling Systems:

    • Water heaters to maintain an optimal temperature for the species being stored (particularly important for tropical marine products).

    • Water chillers to lower the water temperature in holding tanks where heat might affect product quality.

  5. Water Quality Control Systems:

    • pH controllers, salinity testers, and temperature probes to measure and adjust the water's pH, salinity, and temperature in real time.

    • Conductivity meters to monitor dissolved salt levels in the water.

  6. Maintenance Accessories:

    • Skimmers to remove floating debris and maintain water cleanliness.

    • Automatic cleaning systems to facilitate daily tank maintenance.


Benefits of Small Equipment for Holding Tanks:

  • Maintaining water quality: These devices ensure that the water is healthy and suitable for the needs of live marine products.

  • Preserving freshness: Proper oxygen, temperature, and salinity management helps keep marine products fresh for longer.

  • Reduced maintenance costs: Efficient systems reduce the need for frequent maintenance and facilitate tank management.

  • Compliance with health standards: These systems ensure that the marine products are stored under hygienic and safe conditions.

  • Ease of use and maintenance: These devices are often easy to install, operate, and maintain, making them practical solutions for holding tank managers.
