As the IBC is lowered, the IBC outlet engages into the Station “top liner” and the IBC Cone Valve locates onto the Station central “probe” thus creating an environmental seal between IBC and process. When the IBC is empty, it is lifted off the Station, as it lifts the IBC outlet remains sealed into the top liner until just after the valve re-seats in the IBC outlet. Thus, there is not even a momentary exposure to the product before, during, or after discharge.Load cells can be mounted to the frame to check the weight of the product in the IBC or Loss-of-Weight Application. In addition, optional Frame Vibrators can be installed to create flow for difficult-to-flow powders and to ensure full discharge of powders.
