  Bin (IBC) - Patented Cone Valve For Hard Flowing Materials

  

  THE solution for hard flowing materials: UCON BPK Cone Valve IBC and Discharger system!

  When a standard butterfly of gate valve just won't do the job, the BPK system will. This patented system uses a unique Cone Valve to break up bridges and ratholes while accurately controlling the flow of powders.

  The system is comprised of a standard IBC (bin) which can be delivered in any capacity. The Cone Valve seals air and water tight to the IBC, so you will never have powder trails in your facility (as seen with other cone valve systems).

  To discharge the IBCs please them on our discharger station. This will airtight dock to the IBC and allow very accurate up/down control of the valve. We can even accurately dose materials from the system if you need to weigh-off powders.

  All parts touching the  products are made in 316L stainless steel (optionally 304) and our GMP conforming as standard. CIP/WIP are available.

  We offer 4 levels of systems:

  • BPK 2: ideal for all chemical, cosmetics, neutraceutical and food applications. Has some exposed parts (not totally enclosed).
  • BPK 4: Totally enclosed, high containment for Pharmaceuticals, and potent Chemicals.
  • BPK Gyriso: Totally enclosed with a rotating cone valve for high accurate dosing and additional powder flow aiding.

  Bin (IBC) - Square and Rectangular

  

  Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) are made to specification in standard capacities ranging from 0.5-liters to 4000-liters in round, rectangular and square geometries. We also offer fully customized solutions for more demanding applications such as high containment systems. 

  The corners of our square IBCs, whether 5-liters or 3000-liters are always made with a 2” radius to allow for the easy cleaning, insuring that cross contamination is not caused by the IBC. Interior and exterior welds are ground smooth and flush to the sheeting surface. We certify the interior finish to a Ra 15 micro-inch standard, although we can supply finishing to any specification. 

  Our quality welding allows for a perfect appearance after grinding and polishing. We also offer a complete line of manways and ports. For pharmaceutical applications we generally use our lightweight stamped lid system which is not only easy to remove and clean, but also weighs very little. Clamping is made simple by a one-piece over-center clamping ring with safety-tamper lock. Manway rings come in several styles, including a super clean fully welded design fitted to the bin top. Manway lids are available in standard sizes with both sanitary and low-cost designs.

  Bin frames are made from totally enclosed tubing and offered with round vertical legs or square tubing and white recessed plastic feet so floors are not damaged during handling.
