Schütz Ecobulk SX-D packaging

Schütz’s Ecobulk SX-D packaging is designed to withstand ‘burning’ situations. This IBC with a volume of 1000 L not only has a conventional grid, it also features a complete steel coat. Firmly welded to the steel bottom plate, the additional coat forms its own fully sealed container around the inner bottle of the container. This double wall construction provides effective additional leak protection, even under extreme conditions, such as fire.

The fire resistance of the product was tested and confirmed in the UL 2368 test conducted by Underwriters Laboratories. They certified that the product is suitable for flammable and highly flammable liquids as well as for use in potentially explosive zone 1 and 2 operating areas.

The container can be used for hazardous goods or other sensitive filling goods such as toluene diisocyanate (TDI). The double wall of the product greatly reduces the risk of leakage. Should the inner container leak, the additional wall prevents sensitive or flammable media from seeping out into the environment.

Another safety feature of the design is that the container’s three openings are located in the top plate and are additionally protected by steel caps. An opening with a nominal width of DN 150, a G2 and a S56 bung are used for filling and discharge. One of the bungs can be used to discharge product with a dip-tube system. In combination with a conventional pump system, this provides safe and easy discharge. The second bung is located close to the edge of the container and can, for example, be used to completely empty the container by tilting it.
