Safe handling of chemicals
April, 2020
How can chemicals be safely stored, drained and metered? ProMinent has the answer: DULCODOS® SAFE-IBC, the special metering and drainage station for Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC) with almost complete residual drainage. The customer positions and fixes the IBC on the slightly forward-tilted installation surface of the collecting pan. Using leak-proof safety couplings and hoses, the IBC is connected to an interim tank of approximately 200 litres fitted to the left side of the collecting pan. Optionally, the station can be equipped with a standpipe and a tank volume of approximately 60 litres.
This buffer volume ensures an uninterrupted process when changing the IBC. The visual level indicator and a level measurement function with alarm message also allow more efficient planning of IBC changes. The station is equipped with an inspection opening for maintenance purposes.
To ensure reliable metering, a compact metering station can be integrated in the front of the interim tank according to process requirements. This is equipped either with one or two solenoid metering pumps or with one motor-driven metering pump. Larger metering stations can be configured as required and designed for side mounting on the wall or installation on the floor.
The metering and drainage station DULCODOS® SAFE-IBC will be shown at IFAT 2020, 07 - 11 September 2020, stand 451/550, Hall A3.
