High Viscosity Quattro Drum Unloading System

Our HVS Quattro Drum Unloading Machine is a High Viscosity System designed to efficiently unload highly viscous liquids at 400 l/min, with an impressive removal rate of up to 99%! With a maximum solids passage of 15mm with a ball valve and 42mm with a flap valve, this system has been designed to streamline the unloading process, especially in high-volume applications where multiple drums (typically 4) are stored on pallets. Operated through an integrated control system, operators can easily switch between automatic and manual modes. Additionally, this system incorporates a Sanitary Double Diaphragm Pump with built-in lifting and lowering functions, and an articulated arm, which makes drum switching simple.

Typical industries for our Quattro High Viscosity System:

  • Food & Beverage
  • Cosmetics
  • Pharmaceutical
  • Industrial

Features & Benefits
  • Effortless drum unloading: easily unload 4 drums stored on a pallet one by one with the included articulated arm, ensuring a seamless and efficient process
  • Rapid unloading: achieve quick unloading speeds of up to 400 l/min depending on the liquids properties and discharge pressure
  • Maximum product extraction: benefit from a 99% product extraction rate, reducing product wastage and delivering substantial tie-saving advantages
  • Time efficiency: the automated unloading system frees up operator time, allowing them to focus on other critical tasks. The system operates autonomously, stopping automatically once the drum is empty, while operators can attend to other responsibilities
  • Safety and compliance: ATEX-available for use in hazardous environments
  • Material compatibility: wetted components constructed from Stainless Steel AISI 316L with an electro-polished finish. The system also offers material options for diaphragms, valve balls, air valves, and housing stud bolts, allowing customisation based on the specific requirements of your application

Control System & Customisable Control Panels:

The HVS Quattro is operated though an integrated control panel, featuring a user-friendly interface. Operators can easily switch between automatic and manual modes. The control panel includes pushbuttons for precise pump positioning (RAISE or LOWER), pump control (START or STOP) and the ability to adjust pumping speed. For added safety and peace of mind, each control panel is equipped with the main system switch (ON/OFF) and a safety pushbutton (E-STOP).

We manufacture our control panels in-house, allowing you the freedom to tailor each Drum Unloading System to your specific requirements. By adjusting the controls to align with your unique processes, you can be assured of seamless integration with other equipment in your production line.
