25L About Semi-automatic Hopper Ex-Proof Pail Filling Machine for Washing Coatings/Wine Chemicals

The 25L Semi-Automatic Hopper Ex-Proof Pail Filling Machine is a specialized piece of equipment designed for safely and accurately filling 25-liter pails with hazardous or flammable materials, such as washing coatings, wine chemicals, or other industrial liquids. The "Ex-Proof" (or explosion-proof) design ensures compliance with safety standards in environments where volatile substances are present. Below is a detailed overview of its features, benefits, applications, and key considerations.

Key Features:

1. Ex-Proof Design:

• Complies with international safety standards (e.g., ATEX, IECEx, NEC) for use in explosive atmospheres.

• Made from anti-static and flame-resistant materials to prevent sparks or ignition.

• Suitable for environments with flammable liquids or gases.

2. 25L Capacity:

• Specifically designed for filling 25-liter pails, a common size for industrial liquids.

• Adjustable fill volumes to accommodate different product requirements.

3. Semi-Automatic Operation:

• Operator-controlled filling process for flexibility and precision.

• Manual loading of pails and initiation of the filling cycle.

4. Stainless Steel Construction:

• Made from high-grade stainless steel (304/316) for corrosion resistance and compatibility with aggressive chemicals.

• Easy to clean and maintain, ensuring hygiene and longevity.

5. Precision Filling System:

• High-accuracy flow meters or load cells ensure precise filling within ±0.1% to ±0.5% of the target weight.

• Adjustable filling speeds to prevent splashing or foaming.

6. Drip-Free Filling Nozzle:

• Designed to minimize product wastage and spillage during filling.

• Self-closing or automatic shutoff after filling is complete.

7. Static Grounding System:

• Integrated static grounding to safely discharge any static electricity and reduce the risk of ignition.

8. Safety Interlocks:

• Equipped with safety interlocks to prevent accidental operation when the hopper or filling nozzle is not properly positioned.

• Emergency stop buttons for operator safety.

9. Hopper with Agitation:

• A stirred hopper to keep the product uniformly mixed and prevent settling of solids.

• Option for heating or cooling the hopper if required for temperature-sensitive products.

10. Customizable Options:

• Optional data logging for tracking batch weights, production counts, and operator activity.

• Integration with larger automation systems (e.g., PLC, SCADA) for seamless workflow.

Benefits:

• Safety: Ex-proof design and static grounding ensure safe operation in hazardous environments.

• Accuracy: Precision filling minimizes overfilling or underfilling, reducing product waste and costs.

• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of liquids, including flammable, corrosive, or viscous materials.

• Ease of Use: Semi-automatic operation reduces labor intensity while maintaining control over the filling process.

• Durability: Stainless steel construction withstands harsh industrial environments and chemical exposure.

• Compliance: Meets international safety standards for explosive atmospheres, ensuring regulatory compliance.

Applications:

• Washing Coatings: Filling pails with flammable or solvent-based cleaning chemicals.

• Wine Chemicals: Packaging additives, preservatives, or processing chemicals used in winemaking.

• Industrial Chemicals: Filling pails with acids, bases, solvents, or other hazardous liquids.

• Paints and Coatings: Packaging flammable or solvent-based paints and coatings.

• Oil and Gas: Filling pails with drilling fluids, lubricants, or other petroleum-based products.

• Pharmaceuticals: Packaging flammable or volatile pharmaceutical ingredients.

• Food and Beverage: Filling pails with edible oils, flavorings, or other food-grade liquids.

Operation Steps:

1. Pail Loading:

• The operator places an empty 25L pail under the filling nozzle.

2. Filling Process:

• The operator initiates the filling cycle, and the machine dispenses the liquid into the pail.

• The precision filling system ensures accurate volume control.

3. Dripping and Sealing:

• The nozzle automatically shuts off or closes to prevent dripping after filling is complete.

4. Pail Removal:

• The filled pail is removed and sealed if required.

5. Cleaning and Maintenance:

• The machine is cleaned between batches to prevent cross-contamination.

• Routine maintenance ensures optimal performance and safety.
