3 RØ-KA Specialities

  • Cooling/refrigeration unit

    Constant low temperature is crucial if milk quality is to be assured. RØ-KA silo tanks are therefore ice-free with cooling elements on their bottom and sides.

  • Insulation

    All RØ-KA silo tanks are full foam insulated with PU foam in sides, top and bottom. This ensures optimum, condensation-free insulation and reduces electricity requirements for refrigeration.

  • Refrigerated inlet/outlet

    RØ-KA silo tanks can be custom built to customer specifications with refrigerated inlet and outlet or prepared for robotic milking.
