Bulk Powder Series

Dispensing Enclosure for handling of large quantities

It is specifically developed for laboratories, technical schools, pharmaceuticals and production. This series of safety weighing enclosures provide an ergonomic working environment for the safe transfer and weighing of large amounts of toxic and / or active powder products from large containers.

A laminar, horizontal air flow over the work surface ensures that any airborne contamination is taken away from the user.

The unique, turbulence-free flow inside the cabin allows the use of precision scales up to highly sensitive micro-scales.

The separate suction device on the barrel opening also captures dust generated during the removal of toxic / or active substances from the container .

The BP enclosure system has a base entry opening which is sealed with a special extraction ring system. Containers are introduced through the base opening and the work surface is sealed with the ring system.

The flexibility of this system means both smaller containers as well as large barrels can be handled safely.

Key features

• Virtually turbulence-free weighing environment
• Separate Fan filtration system minimises vibration
• Ergonomic to use easy access to large containers
• Low air consumption

Measurement method

The dispensing of bulk materials from bulk containers safely is often carried out in a downflow booth which will require additional operator PPE to carry out the task without contaminating the operator. This procedure is very cumbersome and time consuming. The Bulk Powder-series, however, offers maximum personal protection with minimal product exposure.

Use and applications

• Independent air filtration technology
• Requires only a low air volume
• certified HEPA filtration
• vibration-free design for stable and accurate weighing results
• excellent visibility and work ergonomics
• Constant airflow control with and integrated alarm system which has an audible and visual alarm function
• ergonomic design allows easy access and transfer of the drum container

Standard methods

Independent tests show an ECL (Exposure Control Limit) of less than 1 µg / m³
