Mobile Nurse tanks can be used for a number of reasons in the spreading and handling of slurry or digestate. At SlurryKat we manufacture various sizes of mobile tanks to suit your individual needs.
These SlurryKat pioneered tanks are extremely effective for umbilical slurry spreading applications where the land is not accessible from the slurry storage source on the farm or the AD plant. This means that the slurry can be transported from the farm or biogas plant by road haulage trucks or tankers and discharged into the mobile nurse tank. The tank then acts as a buffer for the umbilical spreading system allows it to continuing to spread between the tankers loads arriving at the site. This is particularly important when spreading slurry onto cereal crops where “stops” in the spreading operation can lead to irrecoverable damage to the growing crop.
Standard features on all tanks include
-Full frame Monocoque construction
-Press formed side panels for strength
-Commercial hydraulic lifting braked axle
-385/65R22.5 road tyres
-Level indicators front & rear
