**General Description:**

The Ripley Stainless Ltd. “Econo” 1000 Liter open top holding tank is a budget-friendly, uninsulated, atmospheric stainless steel vessel designed for a variety of entry-level or utility tasks in beverage production.

**Key Features and Specifications:**

Capacity: 1,000 Liters working volume. This is equivalent to 264 US Gallons (or approximately 8.5 US Barrels).

Design Configuration: Open Top / Holding Tank. This layout features a completely open top rim rather than a sealed dome head. It is typically paired with either a simple loose-fitting flat dust lid or a variable-capacity floating lid setup.

Pressure Rating: 0 PSI (Atmospheric Only). Because the top is open or uses an unsealed cover, it cannot be pressurized for carbonation storage or pressurized transfers.

Estimated Dry (Empty) Weight: 180 lbs to 250 lbs (approx. 82 kg to 113 kg). Because it lacks heavy insulation, external cladding, or complex cooling jackets, it is light enough to be manually positioned by two or three people when empty.

Common Applications: Primarily used in small wineries, cideries, and craft breweries for temporary juice holding, product blending, batch mixing, hot/cold water balancing, or open-top fruit fermentation
