CONTAINER WITH A DEVICE FOR PREVENTING FOAM FORMATION AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAID DEVICE

摘要

A container has an outflow arranged in the vicinity of the bottom and a vortex breaker mounted upstream from the outflow for preventing foaming. The vortex breaker has a vertical main wall and two vertical side wings oriented away from one another to define a T-shape. The main wall merges into a fixing arm. A method also is provided for producing the vortex breaker. The method includes a) cutting a flat plate to define a main wall, two side wings, and a fixing arm connected to the main wall; and b) folding out the side wings in opposing directions in each case into a final position arranged transverse to the main wall. The vortex breaker is applicable in chemistry, biotechnology, and filtration technology.
