SS 304 Drum Handler

Description

SS 304 Drum Handler

The GMP Compliant Solution for Pharma & Food Industries

In industries like Pharmaceuticals, Food Processing, and Chemicals, hygiene is non-negotiable. However, standard mild steel (MS) equipment is prone to rust and paint chipping, which causes contamination. Therefore, the SS 304 Drum Handler by Meeginz Industries is the essential solution for your cleanroom operations. Specifically manufactured from high-grade Stainless Steel 304, this equipment is fully resistant to corrosion, harsh cleaning agents, and chemical spills.

Furthermore, lifting and pouring heavy 200-liter drums manually is a major safety hazard. Consequently, our hydraulic drum handler eliminates physical strain. By utilizing a precision hydraulic system, a single operator can lift, transport, and tilt drums with zero effort. Ultimately, this unit ensures you meet strict GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards while protecting your workforce from back injuries.

Why Choose Our SS 304 Drum Handler?

1. Zero Contamination Risk

Cleanliness is critical. Unlike painted steel lifters, our SS 304 structure has no paint to peel off. Moreover, the surface is polished to a smooth finish. As a result, it does not trap bacteria or dust particles. Therefore, it is perfectly suited for sterile environments like API units, dairies, and cosmetic factories.

2. Corrosion & Chemical Resistance

Chemical plants deal with corrosive substances. Fortunately, SS 304 offers excellent resistance to acids and alkalis. Consequently, even if spills occur during the pouring process, the equipment will not rust or degrade. In addition, it can be washed down daily with water or sanitizers without damage.

3. Effortless Pouring and Tilting

Dispensing liquids requires precision. Specifically, our unit features a gear-box operated tilting mechanism. This allows the operator to rotate the drum 180 degrees controlledly. Thus, you can pour liquids into reaction vessels or hoppers with high accuracy and zero spillage.

4. GMP & FDA Compliance

Regulatory audits are strict. Because Meeginz Industries follows international fabrication standards, our drum handlers help you maintain compliance. Furthermore, we use non-marking nylon wheels. Hence, your epoxy floors remain clean and scratch-free.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Can this handle plastic (HDPE) drums? A: Yes. The gripping mechanism is designed to securely hold both standard steel drums and plastic HDPE drums. However, please inform us if you use specialized fiber drums so we can adjust the clamp curvature.

Q: Is the hydraulic pump also Stainless Steel? A: Typically, the main structure is SS 304. The hydraulic pump body is standard, but we enclose it in an SS cover or offer chrome-plated pistons to ensure hygiene and rust protection.

Q: What is the lifting height? A: Standard models lift up to 1.5 meters (stacking height). However, we can customize this up to 3 meters depending on your reactor vessel height requirements.
