The HVS Drum Unloading System is designed for handling highly viscous liquids in industrial as well as hygienic applications. The system is emptying substances transported in barrels, such as:
While the pump operates, actuators move it downward, pushing liquid into its chambers for easier transfer to the discharge line.
The system is custom designed for best efficiency and safety in the process of pumping high viscosity, paste-like, liquids out of transport drums.
