El diámetro de trabajo de 2 m de la FTXH200B is a more fully specified electric-heating model with pneumatic agitation and an external sterile-air filtration system, while the FTXH320A provides a larger 300 L working volume and uses steam heating, making it suitable for mushroom production facilities with an existing steam supply.
Principio de Funcionamiento
The fermentation tank provides a closed vessel for preparing and cultivating liquid microbial cultures under controlled conditions.
Preparation of Culture Medium
The required liquid culture medium is prepared from appropriate nutrients and water according to the cultivation formula. The medium is introduced into the fermentation tank through the designated inlet.
For mushroom applications, the exact culture-medium formulation should be selected according to the target mushroom species and spawn-production process.
Tank Sealing and Preparation
The vertical tank is designed as a closed structure. The FTXH200B uses a SUS304 double-layer tank, while the FTXH320A uses a SUS304 tank and head structure.
The hygienic stainless-steel construction and polished inner surfaces facilitate cleaning and preparation before fermentation.
Heating
The two models use different heating methods:
- FTXH200B:electric heating with a rated heating power of 12 kW and automatic temperature control.
- FTXH320A:steam heating, suitable for facilities with an available steam source.
Heating brings the culture medium to the required process temperature.
Sterile Air Supply
During liquid culture production, air quality is important. The FTXH200B is equipped with a double external filtration system using a 5-inch filter cartridge with 0.01 μm filtration precision.
The tank also has a dedicated breathing port, helping manage gas exchange while supporting the controlled vessel environment.
Agitation
The FTXH200B uses pneumatic agitation to keep the liquid culture medium mixed during the process.
Continuous or controlled agitation can help maintain a more uniform culture environment throughout the tank.
Inoculación
The tank provides a dedicated inoculation port for introducing the required microbial or mushroom culture under controlled operating conditions.
Culture Observation and Sampling
The FTXH200B is equipped with observation ports and a sampling port, allowing operators to monitor the culture and take samples during the process.
Liquid Spawn Discharge
After the required fermentation/culture process is completed, the liquid culture can be discharged through the dedicated outlet and transferred to the next stage of mushroom inoculation.

Capacidad / Escala de producción y nivel de automatización
FTXH200B – 200 L Fermentation Tank
The FTXH200B has a 200 L nominal tank volume and an actual culture volume of approximately 160 L. Its 12 kW electric heating system, automatic temperature control, pneumatic agitation and dedicated filtration system make it suitable for controlled liquid culture production.
Its compact dimensions of approximately Ø650 mm maximum outer diameter × 1550 mm height can be useful for small and medium-scale mushroom spawn production facilities.
FTXH320A – 320 L Fermentation Tank
The FTXH320A has a 320 L design volume and 300 L working volume, providing a larger batch size for commercial liquid spawn production.
Its steam-heating configuration can be particularly useful for mushroom factories that already operate a central steam system.
Nivel de automatización
The equipment provides a controlled fermentation process, with the FTXH200B specifically equipped with automatic temperature control and pneumatic agitation.
It should be regarded as process-controlled fermentation equipment, rather than a completely unmanned liquid spawn production line. Additional pumps, sensors, controllers or transfer systems can be incorporated according to the customer’s production requirements.

Preguntas frecuentes
The FTXH200B has a 200 L nominal volume and approximately 160 L actual culture volume, uses electric heating and includes pneumatic agitation plus a specified 0.01 μm external filtration system.
The FTXH320A has a larger 320 L design volume and 300 L working volume and uses steam heating, making it suitable for facilities with an existing steam supply.
Yes. The equipment is designed for microbial fermentation and can be incorporated into mushroom liquid spawn production systems, provided the appropriate culture medium, strain and process parameters are used.
Potential applications include oyster, shiitake, king oyster, enoki, lion’s mane and wood ear mushrooms, as well as other species compatible with liquid culture technology. The exact process should be confirmed according to the mushroom strain and culture formula.
Yes. It can be incorporated upstream of a Liquid Spawn Inoculation Machine. After the liquid culture reaches the required process condition, it can be transferred to the inoculation system for mushroom bags or bottles, creating a more continuous liquid-spawn production workflow.
