FEATURES/BENEFITS
• All components that a drum may come in contact with are made of aluminum with air-driven hydraulics — Spark-resistant.
• Compacts up to 6 to 1 (depending on material) — Reduces disposal costs by having fewer drums to dispose of.
• Use with absorbents, rags, paper, or anything that is “soft” rather than “hard” and non-metallic — Minimizes waste.
• Air-driven hydraulic pump (preset at 2,500 psi) — Provides 12,000 lbs. of downward force.
• Ram Guard — Covers the top of drum/prevents any possible hand injuries. Microswitch prevents use of compactor until cover is shut.
• Safety interlock — Compactor will not run unless frame is locked into the upright position.
• Manually operated on/off air valve — Unit will not operate unless the valve is depressed. When valve is released, compactor shuts off.
• Tilt-back frame — Allows drum to be filled with materials without having to move drum away from compactor.
• Raised aluminum base plate — Centers the drum under the ram, plus it prevents the bottom of the drum from bowing under
compaction force.
• View port on ram guard — Allows the user to view compacting ram and any liquids that may accumulate.
• Holes drilled in base plate — Allows unit to be mounted to floor. Floor anchoring is not required.
• Drain holes in ram plate — Allows liquids to rise to the top when compacting.
• Retaining pin — Keeps drum located and secure underneath ram.
• Compactor includes an attached grounding wire — Allows user to ground unit for added safety.
• Includes air line filter — Removes water from air line and extends the life of the pump.
APPLICATIONS
To assist in waste minimization, the PIG Waste Compactor allows the user to fit more soft waste in each disposal drum.
**IMPORTANT:
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure waste entered into drum will not generate a spark by itself, or by coming in
contact with the drum.
