Open-Type Milk Cooling Tank
An Open-Type Milk Cooling Tank is a vertical, cylindrical stainless steel tank with an open-top design used for chilling and storing fresh milk. It uses a direct expansion cooling system to lower milk temperature to 4°C, slowing bacterial growth and preserving freshness before collection or processing.
Unlike closed horizontal BMCs, the open design offers easy access for cleaning, milk sampling, and manual handling—ideal for low-volume applications or facilities without automated cleaning systems.
