Overview Conair MSBHI Series water spray cooling tanks deliver high‑pressure, high‑intensity spray cooling for pipe, tube and profile extrusions. Compared with immersion tanks, MSBHI spray tanks generate turbulent droplet impact cooling that removes heat more rapidly and avoids insulating water films on heavy cross‑sections, enabling faster cooling in a smaller footprint.
Key features - High‑intensity, high‑pressure spray for rapid, space‑efficient cooling of pipe, tube and profile extrusions
- Integrated water manifold with individual valves per spray chamber; separate spray bars for directional control to optimize cooling for each profile geometry
- Quick‑dump valves for fast draining and maintenance
- Stainless‑steel tank, reservoirs and drip pans; remaining surfaces painted for corrosion resistance
- Available in multiple tank lengths and chamber configurations to match extrusion line requirements
Frequently asked items - Operation: dedicated water valves per chamber, individual spray bars and quick‑dump valves simplify setup and maintenance
- Materials: critical wetted components (tank, reservoirs, drip pans) are stainless steel for corrosion resistance
- Tank lengths and configurations: models available from 16 ft (4.9 m) two‑chamber to 24 ft (7.3 m) three‑chamber
Options - Thermometer for upper tank or reservoir
- 7.5 Hp water circulation package with high‑performance stainless‑steel brazed‑plate heat exchanger — for extrusion rates under 600 lb/hr; rated 180 gpm at 40 psi (based on 45 °F chiller and 30 gpm to the heat exchanger). Includes 3" turbo filter rated 200 gpm
- 10 Hp water circulation package with high‑performance stainless‑steel brazed‑plate heat exchanger — for extrusion rates under 800 lb/hr; rated 220 gpm at 40 psi (based on 45 °F chiller and 45 gpm to the heat exchanger). Includes two 3" turbo filters rated 200 gpm each
- Additional 2" or 3" turbo filter with three‑way valve and two check valves for in‑line filter switching and cleaning
- Built‑in rail with electronic actuator (36" travel) at 0.6 in/s single speed; optional AC inverter and selector switch for 0.2 in/s slow speed
- 5 Hp liquid‑ring vacuum pump driven by 7.5 Hp motor (72 cfm), capable of vacuum levels up to 20 in Hg; single pump serving all chambers with a common integrated reservoir
- Belt‑on‑air wipe chamber with lock‑line nozzles
- Special roller rack system for handling solid profiles
