FT-400 Series Single or Multi Drum Filling System

Call for Quotation

Specifically designed for filling 4 x 200ltr drums pre-wrapped on a pallet or a single 1000ltr IBC, the FT-400 series filling machine operates by filling drums individually.

Once filled to the required weight, the machine auto accepts the weight and moves on to the next container and then once the last one has been completed, the operator will accept the final drum weight and pallet weight. The filling machine does not require 4 drums to operate because there are selector switches to turn filling lines on or off.

The filling nozzles can be manufactured from either 316 stainless steel, Hastelloy or PVDF with PTFE and Viton seals.

Lift with Weight
When using our bottom fill nozzle we have the capability of a lift with weight operation, using our standard indicator you can adjust the target weight to control the lift set points, enabling you to keep the filling nozzle out or In of the product as much as you require.
