Contamination Free Filling and Emptying – Drum Containment System DCS for Solids and Liquids

DEC Group offers contamination free filling and emptying via the Drum Containment System (DCS). DEC Group strives for powder handling excellence and is one of the pioneers in containment. DEC’s reliable and safe solution DCS is the preferred choice for many organisations in the challenging environment for containment with utmost focus on safety and reliability.

Filling

The DCS is a cylindrical glove box constructed of AISI type 316L electro polished stainless steel with a glass cover and two glove ports. The DCS has been developed to provide a precise, safe and contained method of filling drums or big bags. This versatile system can be installed directly under the equipment to be discharged or where several items of equipment are to be emptied through one single station. If headroom is limited filling can still be carried out by combining the Powder Transfer System (PTS).

Safety being paramount the DCS offers contamination free filling of drums of various sizes via the DCS glove box allowing the operator to open double liners in a sealed environment.

The GMP compliant DCS is an excellent space saving device which is simple to install and easy to clean meeting ISO Class 6 internal standards.

Emptying

As well offering contamination free filling the DCS also ensures contamination free emptying of drums.

The DCS is fully mobile and its flexibility allows it to work with a multitude of different drum heights and diameters. Working in combination with the PTS the free moving suction lance and excellent visibility ensure residue free emptying of the drum. Load Cell features provide accurate dosing.

There is no requirement of drum lifting or any tipping needed and there is limited use of the gloves during the emptying procedure. The system also offers partial emptying and is operational in an inert environment.

For contained emptying of big bags, DEC provides big bag discharge stations supplied with a DCS head guaranteeing both primary and secondary containment.

Handling of Toxic and Corrosive Liquids

DCS Liquid – The safe and contained emptying and filling of drums is now made possible without additional precautions, such as full protective clothing or large Laminar Airflow booths.
