WFI Storage Tank

Key features include:

• Sterilizable manhole for inspection and maintenance
• CIP Spray Ball for internal decontamination
• Hydrophobic vent filter to prevent contamination
• Level gauge for monitoring storage volume
• Sanitary clamp-style ports and connections
• Jacketed design with insulation for temperature control
• Pressure relief valves, sight glasses, and other optional accessories

The tanks ensure 100% pyrogen-free storage and are built for low maintenance and cGMP compliance.

WFI is typically stored hot at >80°C to inhibit microbial growth. The tanks support periodic sterilization at ≥121°C using superheated water or pure steam. Jacketed designs allow precise temperature maintenance via steam or electric heating, making them suitable for both short-term buffering and extended storage.

WFI Storage Tanks are available in a wide range of capacities, from small lab/pilot scale units (e.g., 500 L) to large production-scale tanks (up to 30,000 L or more). They can be configured as vertical or horizontal vessels, with working volumes typically optimized for peak demand buffering in manufacturing processes.

WFI Storage Tanks are primarily used in the Pharmaceutical Industry for producing injectable drugs, infusions, and sterile products. They are also essential in Biotechnology, as well as for certain applications in Cosmetics, Ayurvedic, Herbal, Nutraceutical, and Chemical industries where high-purity water storage is required.
