To safely fill an IBC first make sure that the pallet, cage and bottle and valve are suitable for use with the intended product. Ensure that the valve is securely tighten to the inner bottle and that the valve is closed and that the drip cap is secured and tightened. Check that the inside of the bottle is clean. When hot filling product do not exceed 65°C. When bottom filling make sure that the vents are functioning correctly or open the top cap. Do not over fill the IBC. After filling, if the product has a UN number, ensure that the lid seal is correctly positioned and tighten the screw cap to 70-80 Newton/Meters.
Do not lift IBCs from the top frame. Ensure that the fork truck tines are fully inserted under the IBC before lifting. Ensure that the vehicle floor is in good condition and free of all nails etc. that could puncture the IBC. Always transport IBCs with the correct labelling attached to the ID Plate.
Always secure IBCs to prevent possible movement during transit.
If you would like to attach a garden hose to your IBC- HFUD/2063 would be the adaptor required. Warm the hose to help in pushing the hose onto the adaptors barb, if possible raise the IBC (on wooden pallets) to assist with gravity flow
However if a 2 inch male BSP is required then the 016136 + 1069497 would be recommended. For those who wish to attach other items to the IBC valve, this adaptor turns the valve’s buttress thread into a female 2 inch BSP fitting more common here in the UK
If a 1 inch Male BSP is what you are after then the 31PB24 is the right choice, however if you require a 1” female BSP then 31PN15C is he right adaptor.
If you wish to fit a 1” Male or 1” Female BSP (as mentioned above) - 31PB24 or 31PN15C to an IBC then a 016136 & 1069497 is required.
