During loading/unloading of fuels, chemicals, powders and granulates into tank trucks, railcars, IBCs and drums, dangerous events may arise in hazardous atmospheres. Even when filling and emptying FIBC Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (Big Bags) with nonconductive powders and granulates, it is necessary to prevent the accumulation of electrostatic charges which may be generated in the process.
The new MT40 grounding system is designed to prevent accumulation of electrostatic charges: MT40 detects whether it is connected to the tank or to some different metal object thus preventing errors/misuse. The display shows the operating status and it stops operation if connection is interrupted.
MT40 complies with the mandatory Directives and it is an approved Safety Device, with SIL2 level.
