The drum emptying system VISCOFLUX lite Ex is used for the convenient emptying
of highly viscous, just flowing media from ISO drums with lids.
Barrels with inliner must not be used.
In an environment subject to explosion hazard pumps and motors are used which
have been checked and approved according to the Explosion Protection Directive

Emptying must be performed under supervision.
The drum emptying system must not be exposed to weather.
Resistance to chemicals must be considered.
The drum emptying system must always be adapted to the material to be pumped
