The Patent-Pending DCS is designed to be used in conjunction with the Patented PTS (Powder Transfer System). Together they eliminate product contamination and operator exposure to the product being transferred

VERSATILITY

• Suitable for virtually any size drum with liners, of any material
• Glove box assembly is height adjustable for different size drums
• Cost effective solution with substantially less investment than a reactor isolator or a clean room
• Requires only one operator to function
• Hazardous materials can be transferred in the production area without endangering nearby personnel or disrupting other production processes
• Can be easily moved from one production area to another by means of a forklift or a pallet truck. The lance support retracts to reduce the height requirement

CONTAINMENT

• OEL (operator exposure level) of 1 µgm/m³ @ 1m
• DCS provides several containment barriers. The glove box provides a dust tight seal with the drum. Both inner and outer drum liners are sealed to a sealing ring. The suction lance is isolated by a containment sleeve
• The glove box has integral filters for venting and operates under a slight negative pressure so there is no exposure even in the event of a barrier failure
• DCS can be completely cleaned or the filters changed in a totally contained manner

OPERATOR SAFETY AND WELL BEING

• The suction lance is easily manipulated from outside the glove box for maximum operator freedom of movement
• The wand has a guard to prevent the liners from blocking the wand opening
• The wand has a counterbalance to reduce operator fatigue and back problems
• The ergonomic design eliminates the operator fatigue associated with handling solids in isolators
