QTS 124


SMALL PORTABLE AGITATED QUENCH TANK

The QTS 124 quench tank is used for the uniform quenching of hot steels. It may be used with water, light weight polymer, or oil. It is not designed for use with brine. Water or polymer must have rust inhibitors (or else tank must be stainless steel.) The QTS 124 features proper agitation which insures uniform quenching and disperses the bubbles of vaporized quenchant that form on the surface of the hot parts being quenched. These bubbles, if not dispersed, can cause uneven quenching times which would result in a poorly quenched part. The agitation also prevents localized overheating which, in the case of oil quench media, could cause a fire. An optional hinged lid provides a means to extinguish any potential quench oil fires and to keep quench media clean. Casters are included to make the tank easily portable.

FEATURES

HEAVY DUTY DOUBLE WELDED CONSTRUCTION
The tank is made from 10 gauge steel. All seams are welded on both sides.

CASTERS FOR PORTABILITY
Four swivel casters are included. This allows you to move the tank out of the way when not using it.

EPOXY PAINT FURTHER SEALS THE TANKS
A base coat of zinc chromate primer is covered with heavy duty epoxy paint.

DRAIN PIPE
An 1” NPT fitting is welded near the bottom to drain the tank. The pipe is capped.

AGITATOR MOTOR IS EXPLOSION PROOF
The standard agitator motor is an explosion proof motor for use around oil. The motor has a 10 foot cord to plug into a 120 volt single phase electrical outlet.

IMPELLER TYPE AGITATION
An 4” diameter impeller type agitator insures proper agitation of the quench media. The horsepower and impeller of the agitator are generously sized for vigorous agitation. The shaft and impeller are 316 Stainless Steel.

SEPARATE CHAMBER FOR IMPELLER
The agitation impeller is located in a separate area from the working space. This is separated by a perforated screen to prevent damage to the impeller and as a safety precaution. This section has a bolt on cover.

WARRANTY
One year warranty.
