Machine Description

The 515 Series Scale-Equipped Vertical-Lift Drum Pourer will pour a drum 

at up to 60” (152 cm) high, measured from the floor to the lowest point of 

a horizontal drum.  It is designed to lift, transport, and dispense a ribbed 

55-gallon (210 liter) steel drum 22.5” (56 cm) in diameter, as well as a fiber 

drum between 22” and 23.5” (56 to 59.7 cm) in diameter.

Maximum full-drum capacity is 800 Lb. (363 kg).  Capacity is derated to 

500 Lb. (227 kg) for a half-full drum.  Half-full rating is based on the tilt 

mechanism’s capacity for handling an unbalanced bottom-heavy drum.
