Filling system handles enormous size
range
CDR Pumps provided a pump from its ETN-L series of ETFE-lined magnetic drive centrifugal pump units, driven by an inverter-rated ATEX motor.
CDR Pumps has been working with Permex Filling Systems to install an IBC and drum filling system at a Chemical Distributor in Chesterfield The design brief was to manufacture a filling machine capable of filling from 5 litre drums, up to 1500 litre IBC vessels
It also had to be capable of handling a wide selection of solvents and had to be fully automated to eliminate operator error and provide a fast, efficient filling cycle.
Due to the nature of the products being pumped, the entire system was ATEX-rated.
The unit incorporates a mass flow meter, with control being through a PLC controller with inverter control to slow and reduce the filling speed, ensuring operator safety at all stages of the process.
