The bundle trough at nine metres — for the fleet that never needs the full twelve.

Photographed during build and test on the UltraMax platform. The dimensioned general arrangement for your machine is issued with the proposal.
Built around the 9 m heat-exchanger bundle — the standard tube length for a large share of Australian process plant. Same trough construction, transducer blocks and generator cabinets as the 12 m machine, cut to the bundles you actually run.
28 kHz — lower frequency, higher cavitation energy, aimed squarely at heavy scale and hard deposit on exchanger bundles.
The 9 m is engineered by interpolation between the built 6 m and 12 m machines — the same tank cross-section, transducer blocks, generator cabinets and steam arrangement as the 12, at three-quarters of the length. Nothing on this page is a new design; it is a proven design at a different length.
Zoned partitions are available here too — as on the 12 m machine, internal partitions let you fill and heat only the length you are using. Zone lengths are set at design.
A tank at this scale is not bought off a brochure. This is the UltraMax platform under test before shipping — transducer banks driving the full volume.
Under test on the floor, transducers running.
Clip is silent and loads only when you press play.
Nothing here is a maybe. Pick the options below in the enquiry and the quotation comes back with each one priced — take them or leave them line by line.
Electric clamp-tube bank with baffles and a fitted temperature sensor, or a steam pipeline where your site already has the plant. Sized to your operating temperature and heat-up window.
Circulation connections are standard on the tank. The filtration skid — pump, bag housings, valves and instrumentation on one bunded frame — is specified to what actually comes off your parts, with weirs and coalescers where oil comes with them.
Open tank, manual segment lids, or full-length covers — heat retention, evaporation control and housekeeping at this volume are worth specifying on day one.
Bundle cradles, baskets for loose parts, or a custom fixture to your component — whatever puts the load in square and gets it out clean.

Nominal specification, interpolated between the built 6 m and 12 m machines; every figure is confirmed in writing at quotation. Tanks at this scale are quoted as a delivered and commissioned system — installation, services connection and the options you actually need.
POA is not a brush-off. Tell us the duty and the options, and what comes back is a real number on a real proposal — the machine, every option you picked, delivery and commissioning to your site.
Each choice becomes a priced line. Not sure? Pick “advise me” and we will size it from your duty.
This is what makes the price real — the deposit and the throughput decide chemistry, heating and filtration.
