Conductive Round Drum Liner

Static control that fits your existing earthing procedure

The problem it prevents

One static ignition event costs more than a lifetime of liner supply.

When flammable solvents, alcohols or fine powders are filled or discharged, the movement of the material against the liner wall builds up static charge. If that charge is allowed to collect, it can jump as a spark inside a headspace full of vapour.

This is a safety decision, not a purchase decision. Where a plant has had a near-miss, or where an insurer or auditor has raised static as a finding, the case is already made.

What it is

A conductive drum liner carries the charge safely away to earth through the drum. The liner is made from conductive or static-dissipative film and is supplied with a defined grounding arrangement, so it fits into your existing earthing procedure without any change.

Key features

  • Static-dissipative construction for flammable and explosive atmospheres
  • Stops charge from building up during high-speed filling and discharge
  • Defined grounding point for connection to the plant earth
  • Can be combined with aluminium barrier layers

Specification

Materials
Conductive film. Conductive aluminium laminate where both static and barrier protection are needed.
Sizes
6 inches to 100 inches internal diameter.
Applications
Solvents, alcohol and brewery products, flammable chemicals, fine powders, pharmaceutical intermediates.
Where it is used
Solvent plants, alcohol and brewery operations, agrochemical and fine chemical sites, and any area classified as a hazardous zone.

How we build it

Our work has focused on combining static control with barrier performance in one liner. A plant that needs both usually double-lines, which is slow and expensive. We can supply a single conductive aluminium construction that does both jobs.

We will bring the grounding arrangement drawing to the first technical discussion.

Built to your specification

Every one of these can be changed for your application, and a sample is supplied for trial fitment before bulk production.
